What We Know About Snoop Dogg's Arrest Record

Drugs were at the roots of Snoop's next arrest in 2012. According to Reuters, his tour bus was stopped at the customs checkpoint in Sierra Blanca, Texas, on the border with Mexico. Marijuana was discovered, and Snoop acknowledged that the drugs were his. He was taken to the Hudspeth County sheriff and there he received a citation for possessing drug paraphernalia and was released. Since then, Snoop has managed to avoid any major run-ins with the law. Though he did make headlines in 2022 for a different type of legal battle.

That February, Snoop appeared at the Super Bowl as part of the halftime show, performing with Eminem, Dr. Dre, 50 Cent, Kendrick Lamar, and Mary J. Blige (shown above). Around this same time, he filed a counter lawsuit against a former employee who sued him, claiming that he and his associates had sexually assaulted her (via the Los Angeles Times). Snoop denied all of her allegations, and he claimed that her suit was merely an attempt at extortion.

Snoop is also looking to bring his experiences with the justice system to the small screen. In December 2021, he announced plans to explore his 1993 trial for the murder of Philip Woldemariam as part of the "A Moment In Time" series (via Deadline). This part of the series will be called "Murder was the Case," which takes its title from Snoop's hit song released around the time as his trial.
