Arrest Warrant Issued For DMX Arrest


Judges in two cities issued bench warrants Wednesday for the arrest of rapper DMX, who failed to show up in court for either of his pending traffic cases.
"In truth, I do not know where he is," said Murray Richman, lawyer for the 36-year-old rapper whose real name is Earl Simmons. "Why would he be hiding out from a damn traffic infraction?"
He said the rapper, whose albums include "It's Dark and Hell is Hot" and "Flesh of My Flesh, Blood of My Blood," was in Arizona on Tuesday but had promised to appear Wednesday in White Plains and Yonkers, both north of New York City.
"He said he missed a flight," Richman said. "He's always missing flights."
