Marion Barry - "B*tch Set Me Up Again"

Honestly, Marion Barry really is the gift that keeps on giving. Today's Washington Post reports that crackhead, turned Mayor, turned felon, turned DC Council Man, has turned down a plea offer from prosecutors relating to two traffic stops. From the Post:

Barry (D-Ward 8), a former D.C. mayor, has rejected an offer from prosecutors to plead guilty to operating a motor vehicle while impaired in an incident in which police said they detected the smell of alcohol. Had he accepted the offer, prosecutors would have dropped the other charges, including the more serious offense of driving under the influence. Prosecutors also would have dropped charges in connection with a subsequent traffic stop.

According to Barry these charges are just the latest in a long line of set ups, shake downs and conspiracies all aimed at him.

"It's undue harassment," Barry said after the hearing. "They know they don't have a case."
