DUI/DWI offenders in Wilmont, MN. are occasionally given the option to participate in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation center instead of penalties for their alcohol or drug related criminal offenses. The punishment for these kinds of offenses can occasionally be very serious, including being locked up in jail and significant fines and various significant costs associated with being in court for and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Many times, especially for initial offenders, the criminal justice system may decide that addressing the issues of drug or alcohol abuse in drug or alcohol rehab is going to be more effective in the long term for effectively addressing the problem. For DUI/DWI offenders in Wilmont, MN. who are lucky enough to be allowed to participate in such treatment in lieu of other more severe penalties, a great number will remain out of the criminal justice system for good.
