Dude has been arrested dozens of times since leaving Memphis and has been in and out of jail many times. I think he is behind bars now.

Quote: Banks, who has a history of domestic violence, burglary and drug offenses, also had outstanding warrants out of East Rutherford, Englewood Cliffs and Paramus when the car was stopped, records show.

It was nothing new.

Over the past decade and a half, Banks has been arrested and booked into the Bergen County Jail nearly two dozen times.

Now and then, he's ducked police before being caught. Then he's released while outstanding charges and restraining order violations continue to pile up.

Five years ago, Banks was charged with assaulting police.

Four months later, he was named in an indictment charging him and nine other people with using an Englewood flophouse as a gambling den and marijuana stash house.

Two months after that, Banks pleaded guilty to a Jan. 15, 2013 incident in which prosecutors said he assaulted his ex-girlfriend with a broomstick and belt, then restrained her from leaving.

The plea was marked by late appearances, no appearances, adjournments and bench warrants for Banks, who was arrested several other times by police in Bergen and Sussex counties while the case was pending.

After a judge sentenced him to probation and domestic violence counseling, police said, Banks tried to break down his ex-girlfriend’s door despite yet another order of protection.

Englewood police said he later burglarized her home and slashed her tires.

Quote: Banks’s criminal history began with charges of drunk driving, speeding and driving without a license before he was arrested in the gang-related marking of a girl with a cigarette.

Things got worse fast.

Banks was in an SUV that took off after being stopped for speeding in August 2011 a short time after a pair of burglaries at homes in Sparta and Jefferson Township in Sussex County.

The vehicle flipped during the high-speed chase, trapping Banks and members of an offshoot of the infamous James Bond Gang burglary ring. Police recovered more than $20,000 worth of stolen goods from inside the SUV.

Banks has been arrested no fewer than a dozen times since then, often for assaults, threats, resisting arrest, obstruction and violating court restraining orders, records show.

Despite New Jersey's bail reform law, a judge ordered that Banks not be released from the Bergen County Jail. He remained there Friday, pending further court action, a week after his arrest in Haworth.

Besides a warrant for skipping court in Hackensack, he's charged with domestic violence, aggravated assault, harassment and child endangerment out of Englewood.
