Witness says she steered Barry toward drug topic
Moore testified under cross examination that she redirected Mayor Barry to drugs after he initially refused cocaine. She said Barry used code language, bought crack from an undercover agent, and smoked it in the hotel room before arrest. She claimed he was conversational and responsible for his actions, while Mundy argues entrapment and coercion.
