DUI/DWI offenders in Wabash, IN. are occasionally given the opportunity to take advantage of an alcohol and drug treatment center in lieu of penalties for their alcohol or drug related crimes. The punishment for such crimes can occasionally be quite extreme, including incarceration and significant fines and various absorbitant costs associated with being prosecuted and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Frequently, especially for first time offenders, the judge will decide that addressing the concerns of alcohol and drug abuse in drug or alcohol rehab is going to be more effective in the long run for full handling the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Wabash, IN. that are fortunate enough to be permitted to participate in such treatment in lieu of other additional severe consequences, many will remain out of the court system for good.
