As reported earlier, DMX's house was initially raided in August 2007 after authorities were tipped that dogs were being abused on his property. 12 malnourished pit bulls and the remains of three dead dogs would be found on the property.
DMX, who wasn't at the house during the August raid, was not formally charged until last week when authorities raided his house early Friday (May 9) morning. During the raid, police would find five pit bull puppies and drugs.
The Yonkers bred rapper would be arrested and charged with seven misdemeanor counts of animal cruelty and drug possession. He would be released after posting bond hours later.
According to The Arizona Republic, DMX was arraigned Thursday on three felony drug charges, including two counts of marijuana possession, and one for drug paraphernalia.
DMX entered a not-guilty plea to the charges and has yet to be arraigned on the animal cruelty charges. He is expected to return to court on July 2nd.
