Criminal justice clients in Robert Lee often end up in drug treatment facilities due to the fact they were convicted of drug related crimes, whether they were selling drugs or had drugs in their possession or were under the influence of drugs. Many judges put these types of persons into the drug treatment system mainly due to the fact that they consider that rehabbing them will be more effective for the culture at large and for the individual, rather than putting them in jail with no rehab at all. This has been proven to be quite successful not only in healing and rehabilitating these criminal justice clients in Robert Lee, but also in helping them stay sober and in a number of cases away from the criminal justice system permanently.
