DUI/DWI offenders in Marianna are sometimes given the option to take part in an alcohol and drug rehab program in lieu of consequences for their alcohol or drug related offenses. Penalties for these types of offenses can occasionally be quite extreme, which can include jail time and substantial fines and various significant costs to pay for being prosecuted and/or convicted of DUI/DWI. Frequently, especially for first time offenders, the court may decide that treating the concerns of drug or alcohol addiction in treatment is a better decision in the long run for curbing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Marianna that are lucky enough to be permitted to participate in this rehab process instead of other more serious punishment, many will stay out of the criminal justice system permanently.
