DMX Rejects Plea Deal in Traffic Case

dmx1.jpgAccording to a report by the Journal News of Westchester, Yonkers rapper DMX turned down a plea bargain yesterday in his latest traffic case in White Plains. The rapper was charged with aggravated unlicensed operation of a vehicle, a misdemeanor, after being stopped by police for speeding last month (June 2). After yesterday’s hearing DMX’s attorney, Murray Richman, confirmed that a deal had been offered and rejected. However, he did not elaborate on the details of the proposed agreement. The case has been adjourned until August 25, and Judge Barbara Leak suggested that the issue might benefit from being solved outside of the courtroom. After leaving court, the rapper told reporters he did not feel as if he was being treated fairly. Referring to his June 30 imprisonment and subsequent release on bond, he said, “I don’t feel good about this at all, it’s not fair—$25,000 for traffic tickets? Come on. Let’s keep it real.”

    I think sll you fools are just stupid. Time to grow up and realize there is more to life than being thuggish and real. What the hell does that mean. DMX has created some classic albums however, do you glorify his behavior and lifestyle. I grew up poor, single parent, mother working two jobs, yet we never popularized poor as being a life we wanted to stay in. We were taught to work hard, go to school, obey the law etc.. I think hip hop artists need to check themselves and the state of the youth that are folowing in there footsteps.

    These issues with traffic violations can be resolved easily! The man simply needs a chauffeur! To be honest with you X doesn’t deserve the privilege of driving anymore. I mean let wifey take over the wheel for a minute B. This is every week dog…be serious now!

  • AirlineGeneral

    Yo 25,000 seems quite alot but for DMX, I’m not suprised they would try to hit him for that much….I got the album niggas, ya’ll need to get that it’s a straight classic

  • BIGNAT

    25,000 for all the shit he has been doing x can piss that out and call it a day. all his albums i think except for the last one is 2times plat plus i know the last one at least did plat. Rahan is right x get your ass a chauffeur get all your papers correct so you can drive legally and then hit the streets and drive like a human. all that crazy driving x doing he lucky he has not hit no one because then his ass would be in some real shit.

  • Dis Nigga

  • King Cobbler

    I agree with X. The Law is worst than the fucking Mob! $25,000 for a traffic ticket. They should charge themselves with racketeering.

  • King Cobbler

    p.s. The Originator’s right. Stoneyisland you are a dumbass mother fucker. You obviously never did a day in jail a day in your life. However, if you ever do make it ‘up north’ I’ll have some Latin Kings arrange a nice little ‘welcome to the block’ party. You’ll be the guest of honor.

  • $beantowncrossin$
