More serious charges would be handled differently. This would also apply in the case of substance abuse. These are illnesses and agencies have invested large sums of capital in each officer, and if they can rehab them. its a worth while solution for all involved. These issues are usually covered in a collective bargaining agreement between the agency and its employees.
