DMX Adopts Pink Prison Wardrobe (in Sheriff Joe Arpaio's jail)
Yahoo Music ^ | Jan. 16, 2009

Looks like Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio has come up with the cure for DMX's addiction to jail. The hip-hop star and repeat offender, like all of Arpaio's other inmates in the Maricopa county jail, must wear pink t-shirts, underwear and socks.

The girlie wardrobe colors caught DMX by surprise. "This is ridiculous, this is disrespectful," DMX said with a sarcastic laugh during an interview with My Fox Phoenix. "Why the pink?"

According to Arpaio, DMX is serving time for charges of animal cruelty, drugs and fraud. Arpaio did not express any sympathy for the hardcore rapper, adding, that jail was not supposed to be fun.

DMX misses the good ole days. "This is not where I want to be man," DMX said.

Hopefully his jailtime lasts at least until the end of the summer. ....after 4 or 5 months of living outside (in Arpaio’s “Tent City”) in triple-digit temps with no AC.

“Cue Henry Mancini.”

Sheriff Arpaio should pipe it into DMX’s tent 24/7.

Sorry for reference to very, very obscure coming-of-age story by forgotten (but very good) author Richard Bradford.

Animal cruelty, drug use, and fraud are disrespectful. Pink underwear is just pink underwear.

O.T., but I seriously do hope that Sheriff Joe Arpaio runs for Arizona Governor sometime in the future.

Sheriff Joe and Sarah Palin could be a winning ticket.

The inmates sued because Arpaio took their tv away so he put it back and only allowed them to watch the weather channel. So they would know how hot or cold it would be when they were working.

Sheriff Joe needs to be in charge of whatever the INS is called these days (ICE?).
