BATON ROUGE (AP) — A lawmaker’s 21-year-old son has been sentenced to three years of probation after pleading guilty to burglary.

Baton Rouge police said they found James G. Barrow Jr.’s fingerprints on broken glass at a house from which a computer and DVD player were among things stolen. He pleaded guilty March 17.

Barrow’s mother, state Rep. Regina A. Barrow, was not at his sentencing Friday.

James Barrow and Michael Smith Jr., 20, have been booked with principal to the unrelated second-degree murder of 39-year-old Brad Cole, who was killed March 15, 2008. Barrow’s bond has been set at $350,000 in that case.

Barrow told District Judge Chip Moore that he was very sorry about the burglary and is attending a technical school to get an air conditioning technician’s license.

Moore ordered him to pay a $300 fine and court costs, put in 100 hours of community service at his family’s church and write an apology to the victim.

Cole’s killing has not been brought before a grand jury, and no date has been set to do so, District Attorney Hillar Moore III said.

Cole, who commuted to Baton Rouge weekly to play bass guitar at First Pentecostal Church, was shot and killed in what city police said at the time may have been an incident of road rage.
