Page 5 of the plea agreement reads:

The defendant agrees to cooperate fully and truthfully with the United States, and provide all information known to the defendant regarding any criminal activity as requested by the government. It states this includes testimony at grand juries and trials. Vick also must submit to a polygraph test at the whim of the government.

See post #41. Looks like Vick has agreed to snitch - if he has not done so already.

I don't know if the Vick investigation is related to poor Earl Simmons' current difficulties, but the timing raises an eyebrow.

I wonder if Earl "DMX" Simmons will snitch. Here is what he had to say about snitching:

Title: DMX - Ruff Ryder's Anthem (Clean Version) lyrics

Artist: DMX

Sumtin' new
Stop,Drop
Shut 'em down open up shop
OOOOHHHHH! NNNNNNNOOOOO!
That's how Ruff Ryders Roll

Snitches wana try (what)
Snitches wana lie (what)
Snitches wonder why (what)
Snitches wana die (what)

The rap culture has done immeasurable damage. Maybe they've finally gone too far.

Lord, I sure hope so!

There’s no telling what she’s involved in now that she (1) has money and (2) is hanging out with the likes of Tony Romo.

White guys put black guys in rings to fight and bet on them - OK

White guys put black guys in football fields and bet on them - OK

Black guys put dogs in rings and bet on them = not OK

Mexicans put chickens in rings and bet on them = not OK

Just sayin'.

“hanging out with the likes of Tony Romo.”

Ugh, unforgivable, but as a Seahawks fan....

Thanks Tony.

I said this in another thread but I think this case is SLIGHTLY different. I think DMX’s crack-using (google the story about him near an airport pretending he was a police officer and getting into a road rage incident while high) has sent him spiraling downward.

I don’t see any evidence indicating anything but neglect. The ONE thing I ever heard DMX speak glowingly about in his life (kinda sad right there) was his pit bull (and later pit bullS.) Granted, I hate pit bulls but you’d see him on interviews talking about playing catch with the dogs and the like and he just didn’t strike me as the kind to be involved in dogfighting, or at least not in any substantial way like Vick.

My guess is he keeps these damn dogs at different spots and then expects others to take care of them or that they’ll somehow take care of themselves but I don’t think they’ll find evidence that HE is involved in raising dogs for fighting but I could be wrong.

I just don’t think DMX would include so much loving praise for his dogs in his songs if he were inclined to torture them via dogfighting (at least not in any organized sense.)

On Fox10 News locally, they reported that DMX’s attorney released a statement saying: DMX has been out of town several months, the caretaker is probably neglectful and that DMX loves his dogs.

Yeah, Vick said he was never at the property, too.

It seems that DMX has a history of animal neglect. This could very well have nothing to do with Vick, but just Sheriff Joe timing this for positive publicity.

I don’t disagree that there has been a past incidence. Whether that’s on a caretaker or DMX’s drug use, I don’t know but there’s a difference between underfed or ignored dogs and cheering as they savagely tear each other apart and unlike some people who are silent about their pets, it seemed like the ONLY thing DMX ever loved or cared about. Just seems out of character for THAT ONE THING.

On other things? Oh, he’s a thug and he’s mental!
