Trouble finds DMX again. He's arrested for failing to appear in court, after recent arrests for a drug and having no valid driver's license. He was also arrested twice in May and awaits trial on animal cruelty charges.

Fullerton police Lt. Craig Brower says officers stopped 32-year-old Shante (Shahn-taye) Broadus of Sherman Oaks about 12:15 a.m. Saturday and took her to jail. She was cited and then released pending a court appearance.

Brower says nobody else was in the car but he didn't have any other details.

Broadus and Snoop Dogg - whose real name is Calvin Broadus Jr. - were married in 1997 and have three children.

A message left with Snoop Dogg's publicist was not immediately returned.

I never heard of a snnop dog. Is that a **** dog, or some kind of rabbit hunting dog?

Black or White, doesnt matter. If you drink and drive, your going to jail!!! Get a driver if you want to party and drink. Its THAT simple!!

Yeah...whether they continue to deny it or not, we are targets.
And they find enough excuses to fabricate accusation.
So stop adding to it....GEEESH

How many decades must we endure it without giving them fuel for the fire.
It's not rocket science.

PS: I hope as many racists who watch BET and ASSUME that it represents us, are also watching VH1's black music month dedication series....but I doubt it. I'm sure they'd rather use BET as the example of what they'd like to THINK we are *sigh*

BLACK PEOPLE, CAN'T YOU SEE THAT WE ARE ALL TARGETS??? WHEN YOU'RE A TARGET, GUESS WHAT, YOU WILL BE HIT!!!! THE POLICE WILL LOOK FOR ANY REASON TO PULL YOU OVER JUST TO HARASS YOU AND SEE IF YOU ARE "DIRTY". THEN, THE COURT OF PUBLIC OPINION HAS YOU GUILTY BEFORE YOU'VE EVEN HAD THE CHANCE TO PROVE YOUR INNOCENCE. BE SMART AND DON'T GIVE THEM A REASON!!!!!!!

kodiak1115 12:30:49 PM Jun 16 2008

let me guess...she couldnt afford a driver...(rolling eyes)

This is not even news. The wife of Snoop Dogg is not a celebrity so why did someone feel this is something that we all must know about? Also, after reading some of these comments, this is the reason why parents should make sure that their stupid children go to school. They play hooky from school and get on the internet and embarrass themselves with their pure ignorance.

Babyjes101 12:09:30 PM Jun 16 2008

why in da world ya talkin bout ugly negroes and stupid rap. And ya people talkin bout to GHETTO maybe he dont want to a driver. But yall neeed to watch ya mouths cause aint nothin wrong wit negroes as u call em. And for real hw u talkin bout black people but white people got Lindsey Lohan,Brittney Spears,Nichole Richie,Paris Hilton and more

After reading some of the comments written, it would be nice if you know how to spell before you start people bashing.

One more thing.....by now in 2008, you should all know that thieves, liars, wife-beaters, drug users, alcoholics, pedophiles, people with bad breath, etc. come in all colors. Absolutely no one is better than the other just because of skin color. It saddens me to know that there is still so much ignorance and racism out there among the human race.
