DMX Arrested For Crack Possession…Again! (VIDEO)

DMX, aka Earl Simmons, was arrested in Arizona Tuesday for violating terms of his probation.

Maricopa County Adult Probation officers arrested Simmons because he was allegedly in possession of crack cocaine. He’s been charged with five counts of probation violation.

DMX has been arrested in the past on drug charges and is reportedly undergoing addiction treatment.

Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio says he’s surprised to see Simmons back, considering he’s said he’ll never be back to Arizona.

“I think it’s about time to give him hard time… how many chances do you give people? Just because he’s a rapper? Rappers seem to go to jail quite frequently… why is he treated different, because he’s DMX and made some movies? If he stays in the jail long enough I’ll decide whether or not to put him in the drug prevention education program.”

He added, “This guy if you look and his conduct throughout his lifetime, in New Jersey, he’s lived a charmed life, believe me. I feel that any time he’s served time is when we arrested him on all these charges. So evidentally, he’s not learning a lesson. Maybe that has to do with his drug problem.”


Simmons is currently in the 4th Ave jail. He is set to make his initial appearance in court at 8 p.m. in Phoenix.
