PHOENIX — Rapper DMX has pleaded not guilty to felony drug possession and misdemeanor animal cruelty charges.
A judge entered the plea for the musician and actor whose real name is Earl Simmons at a brief court hearing in Phoenix on Thursday.
Simmons was late for court, showing up in jeans and an oversized white T-shirt.
The 37-year-old was indicted last week on 11 counts, including felony marijuana and paraphernalia possession and seven counts of misdemeanor animal cruelty.
The charges stem from an August raid by authorities investigating if he was neglecting 12 pit bulls at his north Phoenix home. Some were dehydrated and appeared to be underfed. Three were found buried in his backyard.
