Criminal justice clients in Lexington, Massachusetts often end up in drug and alcohol rehab facilities because they were convicted of drug related crimes, whether they were distributing drugs or had drugs in their possession or were under the influence of drugs. Some judges put these criminal persons into the alcohol and drug rehab system mainly due to the fact that they feel that treating these persons will be more helpful for the culture at large and for the person, rather than sending them in prison with no rehabilitation at all. This has been established to be extremely workable not only in healing and rehabilitating these criminal justice clients in Lexington, Massachusetts, but also in keeping them off of drugs and in a number of cases away from the criminal justice system once and for all.
