This is most often the case with first time offenders. This approach of rehabilitating the criminal instead of punishing and jailing them has proven very helpful in Atwood, Tennessee, not only in getting the individual abstinent or sober, but also in keeping them out of the criminal justice system for the same substance abuse related crimes in the future.
