About J-Roc:
Every trailer park has one or two... Shit, every where you go there are one or two... White guys who think they are black. Listening to rap music & talking slang, know what I'm sayin? J-Roc is the epitome of this, and has some of the funniest lines in the shows. J-Roc, whose real name is Jamie, has recently been seen stealing groceries from the local grocery store, and then selling bins of the groceries in the park. He is always working on a new rap album, or producing a greasy porno flick. J-Roc has created
some porn classics such as "From Russia with a Love Bone" and "J-Rocs Trailer Park Girls Gone Wild". His latest endeavor involves ganking luggage from the airport, then selling what he finds in it at his store in Sunnyvale. J-Roc always has Ricky's and Julian's back, but when it comes to gun play, J-Roc will have no part in it.
J-Roc's Posse consists of Tyrone and DVS. In the first season, he had a larger crew but over time their numbers have dwindled.
