DMX Caught With Drugs in Prison

*TMZ is reporting that DMX has been caught in his Arizona prison cell with drugs.

The rapper is currently serving a year in prison for violating a probation he received after being charged with reckless driving in 2002.

A rep for the prison wouldn’t specify the kind of drugs that were found on the artist, whose real name is Earl Simmons, but law enforcement sources say the 40-year-old has been in trouble numerous times with officials.

According to records, DMX has broken several rules in the Yuma state prison since January – most notably, drug possession, failing or refusing a drugs test, smoking, being disrespectful to staff, and disruptive and disorderly contact.

He was due to be released tomorrow (July 13), but due to his recent disciplinary infractions he is likely to remain in prison for at least another week and “possibly much longer,” according to TMZ.
