DMX Arrested For Speeding, Reckless Driving, Then Drug & Animal Cruelty

by JOKESTA

SUNDAY MAY 11, 2008

Yonkers rapper DMX can't seem to stay out of legal trouble as of late. The rapper/actor who's currently working on a double album was arrested last Tuesday, May 6th, after speed-enforcement cameras captured him in his bright yellow 1966 Chevrolet going 114 mph on a suburban Phoenix freeway.

DMX was arrested without incident at his Phoenix home. He posted bond and was later released.

At approximately 48 hours later, DMX was arrested again on drug and animal cruelty chargers.

According to reports, the Maricopa County SWAT team arrested X during an early-morning raid Friday.

Authorities say the rapper at first tried to barricade himself in his bedroom but gave up after noticing the SWAT team entering his home.

Murray Richman, X's attorney, says he made him aware of such a raid after his indictment stemming from an August search of the rapper's home prompted by reports of dogs being abused on his property.

U would think since he's all religious nowadays that he would calm down even a little bit...All we can do is wish this man well but he's the only person that gotta change.
U can't force or really help people to change their ways unless they wanted change for themselves

dont you think theyd need a SWAT team more to transport a gang of rabid dogs than to find an ounce of weed? even his lawyer told him about it yo, he's definitley fuckin up. let the conspiracy theory go this time.

No lie, if X went back to jail for like 2 years... he would get out with another notepad full of classics. Probably fuck around and drop another classic LP.

This nigga best music comes from his pain. He need to keep all that money he's paying his worthless, lying lawyer and stack that for himself and just go do his time for the mountain of cases he has pending.

Then get out and put down a monster.

Cars and DMX don't match, It seems like a lot shit he gets into always involves his driving. Hopefully he can get some help and start distancing himself from them drugs.

I’m tired of making excuse for these Niggaz man, I can’t stand it when these cats give Bill O’Reilly an excuse to take shots at Hip Hop or Blacks in general. X just ‘chedar bobed’ him self in the foot. I mean, is there a secret competion between these Rappers that we don’t know off? Like Who will rack up more court fees in 2008? C’mon cuz this shit ain’t normal.
After Mike Vick, didn’t this nigga think they was going to watch him? He always be barkin on track don’t he? And the speeding thing,…c’mon b, you barely have a fuckin license, what is you thinkin?
Listen man, I don’t feel sorry for this fool, it’s not like he is giving me good music any more,…I’m done with X y’all

Damn X!! WTF nigga. I want this nigga to drop another classic so bad, but the way his life is going, I don't think it'll ever happen, homie just keeps getting himself in trouble. He's getting arrested for the same shit like every 4 months: suspended license, animal cruelty, and guns. LEARN FROM YOUR MISTAKES X!!!! Stop making the same ones every other day.

X Need to just stay in the studio until he done with his albums. Can't wait for em. An why is X abusing dogs come on. He need to be abusing these rappers that get on the mike thinking they can rap, like some of these southern boyz who think they hot. Shut the fuck up about your money god damn so boring.
