DUI/DWI offenders in Franklin, NE. are often given the chance to take advantage of an alcohol and drug treatment facility as opposed to receiving other penalties for their alcohol or drug related offenses. Penalties for such offenses can occasionally be very extreme, which can include incarceration and significant fines and various absorbitant costs to pay for being prosecuted and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Often, especially for first time offenders, the judge will decide that addressing the concerns of alcohol and drug addiction in drug rehab is going to be more effective in the long term for effectively addressing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Franklin, NE. that are lucky enough to be able to take part in this rehab process instead of other more serious punishment, many will stay out of the criminal justice system permanently.
