Clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol treatment are most commonly referred because they are being granted a chance to try their hand at rehabilitation in lieu of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is more prevalent among first time offenders, it can be offered at any time including while the defendant is being held in jail. There are various types of facilities that criminal justice clients may be referred to, and it usually depends on what is local to Murphy and the type of issues the person requires treatment for.
There are rehab facilities that work primarily with the courts to treat this specific type of clientele, and are usually publicly-funded or are available at little or no cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers that can be approved by the court if there is a specific type of treatment that the person requires or desires that a different facility can't fulfill. The defendant's legal representation can propose such alternatives to the judge for permission. There are even drug recovery facilities that provide services from the correctional facilities themselves, in which case clients are sometimes in a better position for early release or other benefits when enrolling in substance abuse rehabilitation services while serving their sentence for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
