DUI/DWI offenders in Warsaw are sometimes given the chance to take advantage of an alcohol and drug rehab program in lieu of consequences for their alcohol or drug related crimes. Penalties for these kinds of crimes can often be rather severe, and may include being locked up in jail and serious fines and other absorbitant costs associated with being prosecuted and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Many times, especially for first time offenders, the criminal justice system will decide that addressing the issues of alcohol and drug addiction in drug or alcohol rehab is going to be more effective in the long term for full handling the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Warsaw that are fortunate enough to be able to participate in such treatment in lieu of other additional serious consequences, most will remain out of the criminal justice system for good.
