Barry’s son pleads guilty to drug possession in D.C.

The son of former D.C. Mayor Marion Barry pleaded guilty Wednesday to drug possession charges, according to D.C. Superior Court documents.

Marion Christopher Barry was arrested in May after police were called to his apartment in Southwest for a report of a fight.

When officers arrived at the apartment, in the 4300 block of Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue, the 31-year-old Barry refused to open the door for officers and jumped out the window, according to court documents.

Police entered the apartment and found blood on the floor, a half-ounce vial of liquid PCP and five sandwich bags of marijuana inside the apartment.

Barry was arrested later that evening when he returned to the apartment and sought treatment for a bloody foot, according to media reports.

The maximum penalty for possession of PCP, a felony charge, is three years in prison. However, under Barry’s plea agreement, prosecutors said they will seek no more than six months prison time.
