A man who was indicted for two robberies in September of this year, alongside his son and three others, pleaded guilty in federal court Monday.

Mark Dubarry, 42, stood tall, calm and composed as he pleaded guilty to two of the four counts of his indictment. He was indicted on two counts of committing a Hobbs Act robbery and two counts of possessing a firearm in the pair of robberies, which took place July 13 and Aug. 23 at the same Rite Aid pharmacy, 635 E. 3300 South. He pleaded guilty to one count of each crime.

Both of the robberies targeted the drug OxyContin, and investigators believe that more than $3,000 worth of the drug was taken in the Aug. 23 robbery.

Dubarry was one of six people named in the initial complaint, including his wife, Nicole, and his son, Shawn. Nicole Dubarry later committed suicide while being held in the Salt Lake County Jail, seven days before the indictment was filed.

Mark Dubarry and Shawn Spence Dubarry, 19, were indicted in both robberies. A third man, Brittney Jerome Houston, 28, was also indicted in the July 13 robbery. Those three and two other men, Jesse Spence Kirby, 25, and Justin Richard Hawkins, 19, were all indicted in the Aug. 23 robbery.

Court documents state that the Aug. 23 robbery involved members of the group pointing both a handgun and paintball gun at employees and customers and then later meeting up afterwards at a Midvale hotel to divide up the stolen drugs. The group of six was arrested Aug. 26.

Mark Dubarry and Shawn Spence Dubarry are scheduled to be sentenced together on Jan. 5, 2010.
