DMX Threatens to Beat Up His Jailers

Posted Feb 9th 2009 4:33PM by TMZ Staff

DMX DMX is officially on "lockdown status" in Arizona's Tent City Jail for one of the dumbest moves an inmate can make -- dude threatened to fight the guards.

After X failed to report for his medication, officials say the former platinum rapper began cussing at officers and threatened to "assault somebody to get some respect."

DMX was immediately thrown into lockdown and punished with a "special diet that is a form of bread and water."

It all started when he refused to report for work, telling officers, "I already have a job and don't need this (expletive)."

Sounds like he's finally reforming...

50. It seems like DMX has lost his mind. Does he still have his family?

51. I am so so sorry to hear all of this
I love DMX
He is such a tortured brother
and I understand true mental illness based in clinical depression
This brother is chemically imbalanced
and someone should have addressed it with him long ago
I will be praying for him

52. I an so dam sick of watching on tv and hearing of these people who are torturing and killing innocent pit bulls.this is not going to stop,unless there is a LAW MADE an eye for an eye.give these people a tast of their own dam medicine,do the same dam thing to them as they had done to how ever many innocent dogs.this is pathetic,and sad.these dogs are not the problam here,the dogs are the victoms DON'T YOU GET IT!EVERYONE IN THE RIGHT MIND DOES ANYWAY.the dogs are the ones suffering at the hands of these wierdos.who cares if these wacko's are football players or rappers,that must mean ,they can't be too good if they have to hide behind innocent dogs.why can't these people get in a ring and torture and kill each other? that would give the weirdo onlookers something to watch!take these people and throw them all in a torture ring with a few dogs they tortured and see how they like getting ripped apart,and if they don't participate,do to them what they did to all these innocent dogs.that is what will stop all this crap.do you think these people can withstand all the pain and agony the dogs do? i don't think so.and don't stick up for any of them,if you had to go through what all these dogs went through you wouldnt be feeling sorry for these idiot people.

53. John 8:7 :: my 2Cents

When they persisted in questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, "Let the person among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her."
