DUI/DWI offenders in Theriot, Louisiana are occasionally given the chance to take advantage of a drug treatment center instead of punishment for their alcohol or drug related offenses. The punishment for these kinds of crimes can often be very extreme, and may include being locked up in jail and serious fines and various absorbitant costs to pay for being prosecuted and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Frequently, specifically for new offenders, the judge will decide that treating the concerns of drug or alcohol abuse in drug or alcohol rehab is going to be more effective in the long term for effectively addressing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Theriot, Louisiana who are lucky enough to be able to participate in this rehab process in lieu of other additional serious penalties, most will stay out of the court system for good.
