DUI/DWI offenders in Castle Hills are sometimes given the chance to participate in a drug and alcohol rehab program instead of penalties for their alcohol or drug related criminal offenses. The consequences for these types of offenses can occasionally be very severe, including being locked up in jail and substantial fines and other absorbitant costs to pay for being in court for and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Frequently, specifically for new offenders, the judge will decide that addressing the problems of alcohol and drug addiction in drug or alcohol rehab is will prove more effective in the long term for effectively addressing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Castle Hills who are fortunate enough to be permitted to take part in such treatment instead of other far more extreme punishment, most will remain out of the criminal justice system for good.
