NEW BALTIMORE, Mich. – The two bench warrants for the arrest of Kim Mathers, ex-wife of Detroit rapper Eminem, have been canceled after she turned herself in to a Macomb County court.

Mathers, 51, of Chesterfield, was scheduled to appear before 42-2 District Court Judge William Hackel III at 9 a.m. Wednesday for three hearings stemming from two separate drunken driving cases, including a sentencing and bond violation hearing for a hit-and-run crash in February and a probable cause conference for an OWI arrest in May. However, she failed to appear or contact the court, resulting in the issuance of two warrants.

A news release issued by the Macomb County Prosecutor’s Office on Thursday also alleges that Mathers violated her SoberLink alcohol-monitoring device four times since May 28 — when she was arraigned for an OWI-third offense charge out of Chesterfield Township, which was captured on body camera footage.

Mathers reportedly turned herself in to the 42-2 District Court on Friday and her sentencing has been rescheduled for 9 a.m. Aug. 13. Her bond was set for $500.
