More Drug Courts Proposed for Louisiana

Two Louisiana Senate committees have unanimously approved a bill that would require faster drug testing for certain crimes that could also help establish more drug courts in Louisiana and a new way to pay for them. Drug courts remove defendants from the traditional court setting, offering them rehabilitation instead of time in prison.
