No Badge Immunity - A Copwatch 717 Entity

08/18/2025

Hey Chief Slip-n-Snyder,

Explain this slow-motion disaster: you had a registered s*x offender, on Megan’s Law, with a juvenile right next to him. Instead of securing him, you left him in the driver’s seat with access to the ignition. He lied about his age, you knew who he was, and you still let him turn the key and flee. That’s not “split-second decision making.” That’s dereliction of duty.

Then you green-lit a high-speed pursuit through neighborhoods that ended with a civilian vehicle smashed. And you parade this as “good police work”? Stop insulting everyone’s intelligence.

Your department has forced officers out, citing “pursuit policy violations.” You destroyed careers under that excuse. Now, when it’s your own mess, pursuit suddenly becomes heroic? When civilians get hit, that’s just “fluid”? The hypocrisy stinks.

If you’re so proud, prove it. Release the body cam footage, concealing her identity, of course, but show the public what really happened. Let people see whether this was “heroic policing” or sheer incompetence with lights and sirens. Release the pursuit policy, too, so we can all see if your officers violated the same rules you’ve used to ruin others.

You don’t get to hide behind long-winded PR statements. You endangered a kid, endangered the public, and endangered your own credibility. The community deserves receipts, not fairy tales. Until then, this looks less like law enforcement and more like a department that changes the rules when it benefits them.

News Release - Incident at Sunset Lane

August 11, 2025

West Manchester Township Police Department responded to a call at Sunset Lane Park on Saturday August 9th 2025 6:31 pm where a juvenile female was interacting with an adult male and a citizen alerted our officers out of concern for the juvenile. The citizen said that the juvenile female was trying to push the male away and it appeared she was being coerced or forced by the older male. Our officers responded and located the subjects. The adult male, 32 year old Alvin James, who was sitting inside a motor vehicle and the juvenile female were near Brenda Lane. James told officers he was 17 years old when they questioned him. James is currently on Megan’s Law list from Maryland. As the officers were conducting their investigation and gathering information, James used a spare car key and turned his vehicle on and fled the scene. Our officers attempted to stop the vehicle where James led officers on a high speed pursuit from Sunset Lane to Carlisle Road southbound and struck a citizen vehicle north of Loucks Road. James fled on foot from the crash. Officers engaged in the pursuit then attempted to apprehend the suspect on foot. James ran into residential neighborhoods and was pursued by officers who established a perimeter and with the assistance of several agencies and officers located James on South Emerald Avenue. Members of the public alerted officers to James’ location several times throughout the incident which aided in our apprehension of this suspect. Also, the citizen that alerted our officers is a hero in my opinion. When people see things that are concerning, they should contact the police and in this case that is exactly what happened. Kudos to that citizen for having the fortitude to come forward and do the right thing. Thank you.

Situations like the one that these officers engaged in during this incident are fluid and they are making split second decisions that are life changing in some instances. In this case, they identified that the male in this situation was a danger to the juvenile. They attempted to apprehend him after establishing probably cause to detain him. After the pursuit and crash occurred, officers were tasked with establishing a perimeter to apprehend a suspect that fled from a crash scene and fled from police. The foot chase and perimeter lasted approximately 81 minutes and with the help of several other police departments and the York County Sheriff’s Office we successfully located the suspect. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the agencies that assisted us on Saturday evening. Also, to the citizens that called in sightings and alerted officers, thank you.

This incident is still under investigation and our detectives and officers are working on getting to the facts and evidence necessary to ensure justice is served. I want to remind parents and loved ones of teenagers that they should be diligent and aware that social media can be a dangerous place for our kids. Please speak to them about these dangers and remind them to be aware that they do not know who they are communicating with when people contact them on platforms via social media. Stranger danger is still a thing whether it’s in a van on the street or on the internet.

🚨 Hack Attempt Confirmed 🚨

After this morning’s post, we received reports that someone attempted to hack into the former officer’s Facebook account.

Let’s be clear:
📌 This is illegal.
📌 This is retaliation.
📌 And this is being documented and investigated to the fullest extent.

The Law:
• Under 18 U.S.C. § 1030 (Computer Fraud and Abuse Act), even attempted unauthorized access to an online account is a federal crime.
• Under 18 Pa.C.S. § 7611 (Unlawful Use of Computer), it is a state crime in Pennsylvania to attempt unauthorized access to any computer or online service. Penalties range from a first-degree misdemeanor (up to 5 years) to a felony, depending on intent and harm.

We also note: this former officer’s own department had been given his login information in the past. That fact is documented. And when someone tries to break into his account now, right after we exposed names, raises serious questions about who has access and why.

If anyone believes intimidation or hacking will silence this family or this platform, they’re wrong. Every attempt just adds to the record of retaliation.

📂 Documentation is being preserved.
⚖️ Legal strategy is being coordinated.
💻 Cybersecurity tracking is ongoing.

And if anything happens to this family, or to those who speak out, remember: there is already a trail.

🚨 NOTICE 🚨

We’ve been quiet this past week. Meetings (yes, including with NBI’s legal team), and planning the next moves, but the family we have spoke about hasn’t been forgotten.

These names are not rumors. They are public officials, officers, or city representatives who have engaged in retaliation, harassment, bullying, and threats. This is not in order of importance, except for #1, who forced this former officer out and much more! The stories behind these names will be told...one by one...

1️⃣ Kelly Kelch – West Manchester Township Manager

Also complicit:
• Chief John Snyder – West Manchester Township Police Chief
• Jake Janey – WMTPD Officer
• Michael Jordan – WMTPD Officer
• Brett Flower – York City Attorney
• Michael Davis – Inspector for YCPD
• Daniel Lentz – YCPD Captain
• Adam Jordan – WMTPD Sgt
• Adam Bruckhart – Former WMTPD Sgt
• John Butchkowski – WMTPD Officer
• Lance Krout – WMTPD Sgt
• Justin Hobbs – WMTPD Officer
• Ed Paskey - you already know him
• Honorable mention to the WMT Board - they know about Kelch's misconduct but have not acted!

There are also private individuals whose names cannot yet be released until legal clearance is obtained.

We know that the DA's office and the Attorney General have visited this page when Paskey was exposed (you bet we have proof!). They watched and did nothing. There’s suspicion the DA himself may have been tied to the first text Paskey sent. Maybe that’s why. Accountability there? None. Protection? None.

This isn’t for them. This is for the record. If anything happens to this family, remember these names.

Don’t be fooled by low likes or follower counts. This page is watched thousands of times every day, including by law enforcement and the legal system itself.

They know. We know. And now you do too.

If you followed the Karen Read case and the Canton PD scandal thinking you were too far removed from that reality, think again. York County police departments have been taking notes. The difference? There’s no body in someone’s backyard to pin on anyone else, but the rot runs just as deep.

This week, No Badge Immunity will publish the names of individuals who, over the past three years, have harassed not only a former officer but this couple as well. Some of those names might surprise you. A few of them once called themselves “friends.” This situation has a way of revealing who people really are when the stakes are high and the truth threatens comfort.

Because of the seriousness of what is unfolding, there may be a brief pause on our regular deep-dives into systemic failures and misconduct in various departments. Instead, our focus will narrow to exposing those who worked so hard to be “relevant” in this story. They will have that relevancy, just not the kind they imagined.

Let it be clear: all proof, documentation, and evidence this couple possesses has already been shared with key individuals in case any of these goons take adverse action.

The public has a right to know who has been complicit, who has enabled intimidation, and who has quietly cheered it on from the sidelines. And those in power should remember: once the light’s on you, you don’t get to decide when it turns off.

08/08/2025

⚖️ PART 4 – First Amendment, Last Nerve ⚖️

No Badge Immunity is a journalistic watchdog account. A digital record. A civil rights archive. A platform built for public awareness, not private comfort. The content is protected by the First Amendment, and that’s not up for debate.

Let’s get real: if this page posed any actual legal threat, it would already be gone. But it’s not. Because courts have repeatedly upheld the right of citizens to question, expose, and criticize government actors. Yes, government. Cops aren’t a private business. They don’t work for themselves. They serve the public. And the public is watching.

Instead of pursuing legal remedies, which would fail in court , they’ve chosen a coward’s route: harassment, accusations, and intimidation campaigns targeting two civilians they assumed were behind this page. One of whom is a former officer pushed out after filing a complaint against his department. That’s not just desperation: that’s retaliation.

Let’s be very clear for everyone watching:
The couple at the center of these attacks is NOT suicidal.
They have reached out for help, documented threats, and notified multiple agencies. So if anything happens to them: physically, legally, or otherwise, we know exactly who to look at.

We will also be publishing a list of names, a who’s who of corruption and retaliation, documenting every individual who has harassed, threatened, or tried to silence this couple over the last three years. Let the trail be public. Let the pressure be national.

And yes, multiple three-letter agencies have now been notified. You can’t bury this. You can’t scare it away. You lit the match. NBI just brought the spotlight.

We are demanding answers from the Fraternal Order of Police
We are demanding action from the York County District Attorney's Office - District Attorney Tim Barker .
If they stay silent, they are complicit.

Because this isn’t North Korea. This isn’t Venezuela.
This is the United States. And we still have a Constitution.

🔥 PART 3 – Screenshot Dissection 🔥

Ed Paskey didn’t reach out to clarify. He didn’t attempt diplomacy. He led with veiled threats, manipulative language, and the authority of someone who clearly believes he’s untouchable.

He called a post asking for a negligent officer to be reviewed “tone deaf.” For who, Ed? The public? The grieving family? Or the officers who might finally face consequences?

Why does he get to decide what justice is “deserved” or “wanted”?
Why is accountability always treated like an insult instead of a step toward integrity?

He name-drops the Duarte family like a human shield: invoking their pain to silence criticism. That post never targeted them. It called out negligence. If anyone’s dragging their grief into the spotlight, it’s Ed by using their loss as a distraction tactic.

Then he pivots to vague threats : “I’ll do what I have to do,” “ethically of course”, as if suddenly the thin blue line cares about ethics. Let’s be clear: when a man with insider access and FOP protection contacts two civilians to suggest he’s watching what he believes they're saying online, that’s not ethics: it’s intimidation.

He makes it clear: this couple is being targeted because they know things. Because one of them was a former cop who filed a complaint. Because they didn’t stay silent when they were pushed out, lied to, denied records, and harassed. And now that a page like NBI is exposing the rot, they’re cornered.

And if this were really about respect, that illusion died the second he name-dropped Captain Lentz, showing his real motive.

He never asked why “X” sent those texts to every cop in York County, or why a York City officer forwarded them. Has he forgotten Lentz once tried to block this former officer’s job with his last employer by falsely saying he slept with X?

How convenient, right?

08/08/2025

🧨 PART 2: “Meet the Mouthpiece"

Who is Ed Paskey?

A man with decades inside York County’s law enforcement machine. A man who knows where the skeletons are. And a man who, this past week, stepped way out of line.

Edward “Ed” Paskey works for the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP), the nation’s largest police labor organization. That means he represents officers: good ones, bad ones, and every dirty cop in between. When officers are accused of misconduct, the FOP is often the one defending them. When departments face internal disputes or whistleblower complaints, the FOP plays fixer.

This week, Paskey went from fixer to enforcer.

In a series of texts, Paskey directly accused, intimidated, and threatened two private citizens. One of them is a former York County officer. One who was pushed out after filing a misconduct complaint about defamatory messages spread by two colleagues. He wasn’t protected. He was benched. They were protected. And the Chief at the time threatened this officer and his wife with jail time. That story’s coming: stay tuned.

Instead of acknowledging the rot exposed in the NBI posts, instead of stepping up and addressing the facts with clarity and transparency, local police and its allies put their foot on Paskey’s neck and sent him out to silence critics. What followed was a grotesque overreach: the kind that shows just how afraid they are of the truth getting out.

What they didn’t count on?

Screenshots. Receipts. And a public that’s no longer afraid.

This bring next our Part 3.

08/08/2025

🧩 PART 1: “You Work for Us”

Welcome to Fallout Friday. And welcome to the boiling point.

For weeks, this page has pulled back the curtain on what many have whispered about for years: a law enforcement culture in York County that treats criticism as criminal and accountability as betrayal.

But let’s set the record straight: No Badge Immunity is a journalistic platform. It exists to protect whistleblowers, investigate misconduct, and provoke necessary outrage where silence once reigned. It does not answer to cops, DAs, or fragile egos. It answers to the public...and the First Amendment!

We are not in North Korea. We are not in Venezuela. We are not in a dictatorship where dissent is punished. This is the United States, where courts have repeatedly upheld the right of private citizens to criticize government officials, police departments, and misconduct, specially when those critiques are backed by public evidence and firsthand experience.

So why is York County law enforcement behaving like a cartel?

Instead of addressing community concerns, they threaten. Instead of transparency, they sic their insiders on private citizens. Instead of fixing the problem, they hunt the whistle.

Let’s be clear: police departments are not private corporations. They are publicly funded and publicly accountable. When you wear the badge, you don’t get immunity from scrutiny. You are not your own boss. We are!

This brings us to Part 2.

08/08/2025

‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

We were contacted.
And we listened.

After obtaining legal clearance, an anonymous source came forward with threats they received from a well-known “agent”.
This person and their family are in danger, and what they’ve shared with us needs to be exposed, not for attention, but for protection.
Because if anything were to happen to them, you’ll already know why.

We have the screenshots. We have the names.
And we’ll be posting it all tomorrow morning.

The ones who need to see it? They’re already watching this page.
They’ve been watching.
Because the people behind the threats already know who’s behind the tip.

But we won’t confirm it.
Because when systems are this corrupt, exposure is the only defense.

This is just the beginning.
Welcome to Fallout Friday.

Why the silence, York County?

It’s been days since this page started pulling back the curtain.
Allegations. Receipts. Public concern.

And what’s been the official response from the same leadership that LOVES a Facebook sermon?

🦗🦗🦗 Nothing. Not a word.

Not from the Police Department.
Not from the DA’s Office.
Not from the City.

Funny how Commissioner Clout always finds time to post Bible verses, filtered selfies, and press conference highlights, but suddenly goes quiet when real accountability knocks.

Why hasn’t he come out to defend his captain?
Does he think York City residents are okay with their taxpayer dollars funding a whistleblower’s leave for two years, while the captain accused of misconduct keeps collecting a paycheck and sitting comfortably in his position?

Because what exactly are you protecting, sir?

This isn’t the city’s best cop. This isn’t an irreplaceable leader. So why is someone like him still being kept in place?

What’s really keeping Lentz in that uniform?
Favoritism? Loyalty? Fear of what he knows?

Because it’s not about public trust. It’s not about justice.
And it sure as hell isn’t about doing what’s right. Is this leadership? Or damage control?

Silence is a response.
And this one speaks volumes.

If the police department has energy to protect their reputations, why not that same energy to protect women in their own ranks?

Why is the DA’s Office so quiet when they know what’s happening? Are we still prosecuting crimes or does it depend on who wears the badge?

Because if the public is expected to trust law enforcement, they deserve to know if anyone is above the law. No more whispered privileges. No more immunity by title.

This isn’t about gossip.
This is about justice.
And justice doesn’t get nervous when the truth shows up.

08/02/2025

The whispers about Lentz are getting louder, and not in a good way.
People are finally talking. Not about what he did… but about the fear, the silence, the damage.

He’s not upset about what’s being exposed He’s mad the public knows.
If accountability is a joke in York, then guess what? We’re not laughing.

You don’t get to lead with ego and expect immunity.
Some of us still believe in actual justice, and we’re not scared to say it.
