Apparently, Philadelphia Highway Patrol Lt. Jonathan Josey, recently fired for punching sucker-punching a woman in the face, and Colwyn police Cpl. Trevor Parham, charged with Tasering a 17-year-old while he was handcuffed in a jail cell then texting a "lol" about the incident to another cop, are like BFFs or something.

Apparently, Highway Patrol Lt. Jonathan Josey, recently fired for sucker-punching a woman in the face, and Colwyn police Cpl. Trevor Parham, charged with Tasering a 17-year-old while he was handcuffed in a jail cell then texting a "lol" about the incident to another cop, are like BFFs or something, according to NBC10:
It turns out the two officers are friends, and have known each other for 30 years, according to Parham. Parham revealed this while speaking with NBC10 after his court appearance on Monday. The former Colwyn Borough Police Officer is accused of tasering a handcuffed teen prisoner.
Both men also have similar extracurricular activities. Josey runs a production company, "Brothers In Blue," and played a detective in the 2011 movie "Operation: Get Rid of Pinky," a gym instructor in the 2010 movie "Sure Looks Good" and a lawyer in the 2011 movie "Love and Litigation," according to his IMDB profile. Parham is a filmmaker who can be seen in the below video.
What does this mean? Absolutely nothing, except to the most devout conspiracy theorists. But that's never stopped us before.
The Philly FOP is planning to hold a $30-a-head party at its headquarters this month to support Josey. No word on whether Parham can expect a similar celebration in Delco ... or whether he also has a nipple ring.
Does it really matter, or is it such a slow news day that you can't cover a myriad of other issues going wrong with America?— Taxpaying Voter- What's a boo?— manyhats

- Figures a guy who punches a women in the face from behind would wear a nipple ring.— Earl J
- For his next role, Josey will be playing Ike Turner.— LouDiamondPhillipsheadScrewdriver
- You have reached an al time low. Total embarrassment to any real journalist. Are you that hard up? SMH....you are a disgrace. Karma is funny though.....— badsaint
- no this exposure is actually good. This isnt a slow news day story. This is relevant to phila. Look at the underlying story here— Comments fan
- This is investigative reporting which should be reported for all those that dont believe this is important, guess what: It is! People wake up, this is what u ask for. Revealing stories wether they are followup or discovering/revealing. Readers ask for it and now some readers want to discard it? Please do more like this PDN. Excuse my grammar, senmtence structure, and punctuation. Im responding quick before I head out.. I saw this I think its spot on with regards to what is needed , now if the public could just read twice and digest before downing the facts— Comments fan
- Yo! These are two really tough guys getting their props here. One sucker-punches a woman from behind and the other tasers a handcuffed kid in a cell. Of course the FOP is supporting the woman-beater.— Boru
- Between this cop article and Specter, you're beating a dead horse. Move on.— dogman5
- Methinks "Pinky" is a derogatory name for white folks!
"Operation: Get Rid of Pinky"— MODEREATER - Nice pierced nipples, slick. Too bad about your downfall, though. Smooth move getting caught on camera. Glad you got knocked down to the reality you deserve. The city is far better off without you and your buddy.— Bradley85
- Anyone who hasn't worked as a Police Officer should not judge these officers. That boy in Colwyn is a criminal who has been arrested countless times. The Cpl. and another officer gave him several warnings before using force. THE CPL. WAS WITHIN HIS RIGHTS AS A LE OFFICER. Chief Ramsey is just a tyrant who forgets that Police officers are human and make mistakes just as a teacher or factory does. The woman should not have been hit, but the Lt. should not have been fired either. Suspension was sufficient. Ramsey and the higher ups who decided to take these officers careers away sit behind a safe desk all and collect large salaries, meanwhile the officers on the street risk their lives everyday for pennies and get attacked by their departments when they make human errors. Police departments are a joke now-a-days. We need Mayor Frank Rizzo back.— popo911
