DMX Arrested…TWICE This Week!
Filed under: Music Minute > Legal Matters
It's true — rapper DMX was arrested twice this week.
DMX's first arrest happened on Tuesday for wreckless speeding (he was going 114 MPH on a suburban Phoenix, AZ freeway).
And then early Friday morning, he was arrested AGAIN after authorities conducted a pre-dawn raid at his Phoenix home. Law enforcement serving a search warrant at the rapper's home found drugs and fire arms stashed away.
The popo had been investigating DMX for about 7 months — they had received a number of complaints about DMX's mistreatment of animals.
In addition to the fire arms and drugs, authorities found 5 pit bull mix puppies, which were taken from the home to an Arizona jail where they'll be cared for by female inmates.
During the search, officers report that the rapper attempted to barricade himself inside his bedroom. DMX eventually came out with no further resistance.
Time for him to go to jail!!!!!!
Omg i hate him for abusing animals he is such an ***hole
Re: Know It All –
The dogs were showing signs of neglect. This is his SECOND charge of animal cruelty. He was CONVICTED of a similiar charge in New Jersey. I don't care whether or not the sheriff is out to get him. It does not nullify the fact that he neglected and fought pit bulls. He is cruel to animals, period. Not only is he fighting them, he doesn't even take proper care of them!!!! His crime is NOT that he is living in the whitest part of Phoenix, his crime is that he is abusing animals. It matters not where he is living. I am so tired of hearing of these low lifes claiming that they are being unfairly treated because they are not being allowed to fight pit bulls. Who is speaking for the voiceless animals? Pit Bulls are wonderful dogs who have now gotten banned in some cities because of assholes like him. He is lucky I am not in charge. As far as I am concerned anyone who abuses an animal should be removed from the planet. We don't need cruel people here.
Oh, and btw, is it all right that he is speeding down the freeway at excessive speeds endangering other drivers? Is he entitled to do that to people who didn't sign up for being part of his fun? Let the jerk do his moves on a race track.
HE IS A JERK WHO THINKS HE CAN GET AWAY WITH ANYTHING BECAUSE HE IS AN ENTERTAINER.
Re: Know It All – "his only crime is to be a black man"??????????? Are you nuts? Ask the pit bulls he has fought and neglected if they care what the color of his skin is.
He doesn't get a free pass because he is black.
And guess what, I wouldn't want a loud party going on next to my house until all hours of the night. Would you?
first of all i don't abuse animals or anyone should hurt them but that shouldn't be the foscus people lets worry about children being abusing thats worst in my eyes and stop worrying about the animals and worry about children in our world oh yeah in asia they eat dogs by the way
DMX was livling in the hotel I worked at for a while in Fall 07, while he was filming a movie. He was very sketchy, very rude and obviously on drugs. I had a run in with him one night that resulted in me hanging up on him and eventually he was kicked out of the hotel.
Re: steph – Umm he was going 114. Unless you get lucky and get a nice cop, anyone will get arrested for that…. and he didn't go to prison for speeding.
Could care less about the speeding, drugs and ammo…..don't fuck with the animals!
any asshole that hurts animals should be hung from his testicles and left to die slowly. douchebag
