DUI/DWI offenders in Luray, Missouri are occasionally given the option to take part in a drug and alcohol treatment facility in lieu of punishment for their alcohol or drug related offenses. The punishment for such crimes can ordinarily be very harsh, which can include incarceration and significant fines and other significant costs to pay for being in the court system for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. More often than not, specifically for new offenders, the judge finds that addressing the issues of drug or alcohol abuse in drug rehab is going to be more effective in the long run for curbing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Luray, Missouri who are fortunate enough to be allowed to take part in this rehab process in lieu of other more severe punishment, a great number will remain out of the criminal justice system permanently.
