DMX Turns Down Plea Deal in Traffic Case

WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. -- Rapper DMX's traffic woes likely won't be ending anytime soon.
The hip-hop star, whose real name is Earl Simmons, turned down a plea bargain in a case that stems from his arrest on traffic charges. The rapper's lawyer, Murray Richman, did not describe the offer after DMX appeared in court on Monday.
Police arrested DMX in White Plains on June 2 and charged him with speeding, making unsafe lane changes, not wearing a seat belt and driving without a license.
DMX, 35, spent a night behind bars last month after a judge issued an arrest warrant when he failed to appear in court to answer to the charges. He walked out after posting $25,000 bail.
"I don't feel good about this at all," the rapper said after his court appearance. "It's not fair -- $25,000 for traffic tickets? Come on. Let's keep it real."
The case was adjourned until Aug. 25.
White Plains is 26 miles north of New York City.

Does the man have sense enough to know that the $25,000 was the get out of jail
fee - not a traffic fine? Hello - you only exacerbate your problems when you don't
keep your court dates. And how are you going to do your B.E.T. show from JAIL?
I used to like DMX, but now I think he's just DMB.

Well, it's confirmed - DMX is really, really, really DMB!!! Smoking cigarettes around the
baby is DMB!!! Baby riding in the car not secured in a car seat is DMB!!! Having a wife
that doesn't know this is DMB!!! Plus all the other DMB things that I've seen him do.
