This is typically the case with first time offenders. This approach of rehabilitating the criminal rather than punishing and jailing them has proven very effective in Richwood, WV., not only in getting the person abstinent or sober, but also in keeping them out of the criminal justice system for the same drug or alcohol related crimes in the future.
