DUI/DWI offenders in Wetmore are sometimes given the chance to take advantage of a drug treatment program as opposed to receiving other punishment for their drug or alcohol related crimes. The punishment for such crimes can often be quite extreme, and may include being locked up in jail and significant fines and various significant costs to pay for being in court for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Frequently, especially for first time offenders, the criminal justice system will decide that addressing the concerns of drug or alcohol abuse in drug rehab is will prove more effective in the long term for effectively addressing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Wetmore that are fortunate enough to be permitted to participate in such treatment instead of other far more extreme punishment, most will stay away from the criminal justice system for good.
