An embarrassed Brooklyn prosecutor apologized yesterday after pictures surfaced online of him posing in blackface and a Rasta wig and simulating a jailhouse rape.
Assistant DA Justin L. Marrus — whose dad is Brooklyn Supreme Court Justice Alan D. Marrus — took down the offensive photos, which were posted on Facebook in 2006.
“This is something he did about six years ago while he was in college,” said DA spokesman Jerry Schmetterer. “He apologized. He admits it was childish and inappropriate.”
District Attorney Charles Hynes accepted Marrus’ apology, said Schmetterer.
In one picture — from an album called “Halloween” — Marrus mugs it up in a tie-dyed T-shirt, dreadlock wig, shades and blackface, according to the Gothamist Web site, which first reported the story.
“What part of Jamaica you from mon? da beach mon,” the caption reads.
A second photo — from an album called “Courthouse for 4th of July’’ — shows Marrus, now 25, and another man simulating sex in what looks to be a cell with white bars.
“While in prison . . . made me do unspeakable acts with . . .” the tasteless caption reads, with the two names blurred out by the Web site.
Marrus, who lives in his parents’ Manhattan Beach home, declined to comment.
His father faced a storm of criticism in October 2010 when he gave a DWI cop who killed a woman only 90 days behind bars.
The senior Marrus incredibly defended himself by noting that the victim had been boozing herself.
