DUI/DWI offenders in St. Cloud, Wisconsin are often given the opportunity to take advantage of an alcohol and drug treatment center as opposed to receiving other consequences for their drug or alcohol related criminal offenses. Penalties for these types of criminal offenses can occasionally be quite serious, and may include incarceration and substantial fines and other significant costs to pay for being in the court system for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI.
