Earl Is In The Hospital
That's why he missed his most recent court date. Yesterday a judge in Arizona issued a bench warrant and raised the bond to $25,000.00 for rapper DMX, real name Earl Simmons, for failure to appear at a pre-trial hearing on drug charges. Earl's lawyer released a statement claiming his client has been admitted to a Miami area hospital and that's the only reason he wasn't in court. Too bad the judge didn't buy it and let the warrant stand saying he should have been notified before the court date was missed. Also DMX's lawyer would not answer when questioned about whether or not the hospital DMX is in is actually a rehab facility.
