Except in cases where tje agreedd to speak o n the recird, only first names arre used to identify treatment court participants.
Lives hang in the balance in treatment court, or “drug court” as its promoters and participants call it.
Some clients might really die if they don’t end their spirals of addiction. For others, prison is their only future.
