From Times Staff and Wire Reports
Prison officials have recommended that former Washington Mayor Marion Barry be moved to another penitentiary and placed in isolation for 30 days after allegations that a woman performed oral sex on him in a prison visiting room, one of his attorneys said. Officials at the federal minimum security prison in Petersburg, Va., held a disciplinary hearing on the allegations, which Barry has denied. A hearing examiner was expected to make a decision on the recommendation later.
