@candycane Barry's all drama all the time. For all the world he can't seem to let it go. It's like he's trying to create his own MTV reality show starring himself. He's too old for the drama, sure, but you know he'll try to spin it to political gold when he finally takes center stage for what has got to be his millionth plea for forgiveness.

TO EUROTRAKS:

Please speak to only what you know, which means YOU DON'T KNOW DONNA! She was using Barry and maybe he was ok cause he was getting what he wanted from it. Donna's husband beat her ass on the regular, so now to make him jealous she comes back to the house that she knows the ex-husband is at with Barry??? PLEASE she then was playin both men against each other!

Marion Barry has been a narcissist and a liar since the day he took office as Mayor. Nothing ever changes with this guy! Lat year it was shoplifting and now this!

I guess we can add "crazy stalker" to the list of wonderful traits he possesses.

Hang in there Ms. Watts!! Nobody believes Barry...

candycane1, that's advice not only for Barry, but for others as well. The sane part definitely.

WEll she got her 15 min of fame and now the press will eat her alive. How is he a stalker when you were with him at your choice earlier in the day. It's not going to pay off for her. Her story has changed now. I guess she's sorry she crossed him cause in court she is going to look like a fool. My advice to Barry, get a woman with a job, drug free and sane. You're too old for the drama.

Barry knows too much about too many people to ever go down. That's the long and short of the Barry story.

Marion Barry drove this city into the ground when he was Mayor -- from corruption and most of all incompetence. Please search for "He’s Still Marion Barry”" the Washington City Paper article on him in 2006 ... OH -- and he did receive a Kidney from a friend in late February 2009 and my personal friend was at Irish Times in DC on Patty's Day (Mar. 17) and who was there drinking it up 2 to 3 weeks AFTER a kidney transplant -- but good 'ol corrupt Marion Barry himself ... He's a joke.

Poor Marion. Always a victim. The system is out to get him. He is such a kind and gentle man who does no wrong. If so, I wonder why he is always in custody of the police or going to court on charges? I do see a pattern here, and it is not the system.

so, in other words, "[Watts] set me up."

What motive would she have for inventing something like this? She had a pretty sweet deal before--fur coats, money, etc.
