D. C. Mayor Marion Barry
Sometimes the sins of the father visits their future generations. If reports are correct, the son of former D. C. Mayor Marion Barry who struggled with drug abuse, is dead at 36 years old from a drug overdose. Marion Christopher Barry attempted to follow in his father’s footsteps politically, but according to those watching the political D.C. scene he did not have the nature comfort with people that allowed his father to propel to the top spot.
In 2015 Marion C. Barry pleaded guilty to charges incurred after an outburst at local bank. He tried to withdraw a large sum of money but his account was overdrawn. He was sentenced to 12 months probation.
