DMX Misses Court Again, Foxy in Trouble

It's only been a few months since he's missed court last time, but DMX (Earl Simmons) has found yet another reason to miss court. Yesterday, the rapper was to appear before a White Plains, NY judge on charges of driving with a suspended license that occurred last month. According to reports, the Westchester DA's office has asked the judge to issue a warrant for his arrest. The judge subsequently denied the request. The charge comes after the rapper was pulled over for running a red light, which led them to discover his license was suspended. After missing two previous court dates, DMX assured the NY judge that he would show up for his March 6th pre-trial hearing that was based on another driving related charge.

In Foxy Brown related news, prosecutors in Florida filed battery and resisting arrest charges against the artist. The charges are based on the February 15th incident in Queen Beauty Supply in FL when the owner claimed Brown squirted hair gel at him and then attempted to push him and knock over his display shelves. A police officer who responded to the owner, Hayssam Ghoneim's call, told reporters that he had to employ a "take down maneuver" on the female rapper, after which he took her into custody. During a press conference on February 26th, she denied allegations and said that the Broward County Police were guilty of racial profiling and police brutality. On the first of March, Foxy pleaded guilty to violating her probation by traveling to Florida without permission and was ordered to continue her six month probation from an earlier assault charge.
