If the person repaid all the damages he had done first, then I would have no objection to him going to a rehab center as long as jail time was hanging over his head.

No. Drug treatment centers are for people who really want help, not for criminals looking to get out of serving time. What’s the old saying? Can’t do the time, don’t do the crime.
