Way to go Norristown PD and West Norriton PD for rallying and getting this dangerous drug dealer off the streets. Love the smug,smiling mugshot of "T-Man"!
Lock him up and throw away the key.

one down how many more out there..... also cant wait to see people coming forward defending the guy....

Off to Route 29 he goes. Praise God!!! Terrorizing Norristown. Scum bag.

So I'm hoping the family members were also arrested/cited for aiding and abetting? Since he had warrants...

lol i love the freaks.... i bet omg is like an accountant for gsi in kop.

and it wasnt his mugshot. i am sure its his graduation photo from mit.

I had to delete some comments from this article for obscene language. I appreciate that not everyone agrees with the information police provide and they are certainly welcome to comment on this article and provide their point of view. I only ask that the language be kept relatively clean. Thank you.

Also, one previous commenter mentioned that the warrant was for failure to appear in court. One local warrant was, in fact, for failure to appear at a bail revocation hearing. The other warrant from the county, however, is for an aggravated assault charge stemming from a shooting in January according to police.

james everyone is a saint in norristown.... forget about facts, public records and a long history of arrests t-man is a saint. :D

Ironic that stories about people who are in the most trouble with the law have the most vile people posting in support of them

Pussy yeah the facts get them right cause he ain't been charged for no shit like that

James you do a fantastic job and thank you for deleting the unnecessary, obscene language. Some users need to just be blocked if they cannot add substantial, clean information to the thread. @The optimist- yes, T-Man must be a saint and has been a victim numerous times from the system! ;)

I try very hard to not actually ban or delete anyone. I know these stories often provoke a very emotional reaction and people want to vent and make their opinion known. They're even welcome to criticize me personally. I just can't let overly obscene language on my site. The Patch world draws the line at the f-word.

Pussy he got a DIPLOMA from Methacton what

T-Man! Well it looks like the photo was taken right after he received his Wed. ashes

I like others are stunned by the defense of someone that has been breaking the law since 2003. This guy doesn't get it.....as I often say about folks that have been arrested. They keep getting arrested, their crimes get more and more violent until they kill someone. Then for some reason people say old T-Man is a nice guy. SMH. Thank God they arrested this guy.

Good Job Po Po

Good job to Norristown and West Norriton in this effort! Also, way to go James - some of the commenters are just way out there. Your job is not easy but we appreciate you keeping us updated.

Some of deese people madd cause they not gonna get wet or Molly anymore from him. Glad hes caught. A true parasite. Dueces mofo

People need to stop judging someone especially when you don't know what the truth is. This man is a father, son, and brother to someone. So respect the fact that people are upset that this article is not 100% true. If cops gave you this information that proves more and more that they make up stories all the time. Was anyone commenting near "Tman" when he was arrested? Was anyone riding with him when he supposbly was shooting at someone? I find it hard to believe that this man is able to un around norristown commit all these crimes and they are just getting to him. The law says innocent until proven guilty. So until a jury says he is guilty and the evidence sticks I suggest people just mind their business and stop disrespecting someone that can't comment at the moment. I know freedom of speech applies but this article has a lot of holes in it.

A Methacton grad??? Yeah right. Common sense, dignity,morals, and a heart, obviously this man lacks tremendously!!! Criminals like him who obtain handguns illegally are one of the many reasons why Obama and his puppets are trying to take away our 2nd amendment right. It's people like HIM who ruin it for us law abiding citizens who legally carry to protect our own. IT IS OUR RIGHT TO PROTECT AND BEAR ARMS, NOT HIS OR ANY OTHER CRIMINAL OUT THERE.

Obviously more deleting is necessary. If you can't express yourself without being foul and offensive, then don't express yourself.

I suspected it all along....now I know. OMG u are the proud mother of TMan! Congrats on the fine job you did raising such a fine outstanding contributor to society. You must be so proud. Proof to the saying...apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Hahahaha.

I think it is disgraceful and disgusting that people are sticking up for this low life loser. A father? Oh those poor children. Quite the role model there. It makes him an even more POS!!! Lock him up and throw away the key!!! Wtg law enforcement. Now go round up the other drug dealers and scum in Norristown. People need to start speaking up to save your community. Norristown has become a thug town anymore.

Hey CJ, if you think he is so innocent why don't you bail him out of prison and let him stay at your house.

And who cares at this point that he's a father and a son blah blah blah, OBVIOUSLY FAMILY LIFE HAD LOTS OF INFLUENCE AND LOVE THERE for this POS. People sicken me how they stick up for this man.

SMGDH @ the the stats I just read seriously! Some times ppl really need to just keep there mouths shut cause it really shows the ignorance in them!

These white people allowed to say anything. .all n all theyre the ones shooting up schools n killing the whole household they don't have shit else to do

OMG, you might be the biggest ignoramus that posts on here. I would suspect that you were trolling, but honestly you most likely believe the dribble you spout. Who cares what the warrant was for or when it was issued, they caught this scumbag with 3 guns and you want to argue semantics on a timeline....FFS you probably also believe that stop signs with a white border are optinal.

Mr Myers you are a loser as well. You obtain wrong information not caring about a suit for defamation. Norristown police and dumb detectives. You guys talk bad about this man and I bet never conversated with him. He is very humble and its ok what you think you're entitled but hope you raise your kids right and they stay straight. Myers I hope you get the shit sued out you cause your info wrong and if all of a sudden charges pop up they desperate.

2nd and wonder sleeping together smh

I was just on the US Courts portal for Pennsylvania. This is a public record site and Mr. Griffin has 4 pages of criminal charges since 2003. Starting with Assault and Robbery. Over the years some of the following charges against his nice man: Terroristic Threats, Criminal Trespass, Resisting Arrest, Manufacturer of Substance, possession of firearm, it goes for on and on. I am stunned this guy is still out on the streets. How can anyone defend this guy. He needs to go to jail for a long long time.

Agreed Steve!! Those defending him are probably his partners in crime. How can you defend a repeated offender?!?! Scum like him need to go away for a long time. But he's probably one of those institutionalized ones, being locked up "ain't no thang to him". When he gets out, he will be back at it again.

Steve, they defend him because they know nothing else, give a bunch of section 8 losers a voice on the interwebs and they show their intelligence level........

CJ101- stop defending him!! Look at the us portal that is accessible to the public. REPEATED OFFENDER NEEDS TO BE UP STATE!!! ABSOLUTELY NO EXCUSE!!!

Lol Boywonder, my exact thought. They won't ever amount to anything.

Oh James oh James yea idiots public records. Forget what they wanted to try to charge him on what was the convictions. Cause of crackers and assholes like you and the rest who don't effing know him and don't know shit furthermore. Don't believe everything you read. U bet this racist writer don't put the real shit on here will he? Convictions asses. If your dumb ass was on there and read it right you'd see. Did you look your mother up?

@ dumbass, I was waiting for the race card to be pulled. How typical

Hey Dummy, they are holding him on what they can atm, you can rest assured more charges will follow........

how do they know it was him, he had his hoodie on

Ahh yes the race card, the argument of someone that can't defend their position or argument...I know it's all whiteys fault you are uneducated, poor, ignorant and unemployed.....yeah.....

Did ya hear the story of all the white people rioting at a mall in Chicago the other day?

Way to change the subject

Ooops sorry they were all black. I must have seen the MSNBC new sanitized version

Wow!!! Let me start by saying I'm WHITE but am engaged to a black man... I know t-man very well nd even went to school with him...he is a VERY nice person but everyone has a hard time in their lives IJS... He's lost ALOT of cl

Close friends that were gunned down INNOCENTLEY!!! I've lived in Norristown for 11 years and it's getting crazier everyday and I'm not saying he doesn't deserve to learn his lesson cuz we ALL do but all that nonsense about another black man on section 8 nd blah blah really??? Grow up people cuz there's whites,Mexicans,blacks nd every other race that do the same shit!!! So instead of talking about every other race especially blacks nd Mexicans realize its not about the COLOR it's about HOW you use your BRAIN and clearly most of you AREN'T your just JUDGING and that's why there's SO much hate in this world cuz of JUDGEMENT!!!

Mommy's,
Where was his judgment? He seems to be judge and jury with his shootings. So I think it is fair as his targets/peers we have the right to judge him now that he is in a cell and not a threat.

Mommy also feel free to let us know what job he had when he was not shooting up the neighborhood. Was he um self employed as a pharmaceutical rep?

Here is something I noticed on recent early morning run to home depot. Mexicans in the parking lot. Contractors hiring them for day work. I saw about 2 dozen Mexicans and 1 black guy. Kudos to the black guy trying to earn a few bucks for himself.

Free T man

He's a good man, working 2 -3, even 1,000s of jobs supporting his family all while attending college at night, only 60 credits away from graduation. He is a credit to, and reflects the proud values, of his community.

@Chuck. You seem to be very judgement. Are you a doctor or lawyer??? No.You cant even spell your last name!!! You big stupid dumb ass yourself. You disgraceful @#$%&* yourself. Degenerate. Why are you constantly on the patch then!!! Your just as dumb low life yourself. Go back and get your GED. You self centered degenerate. As far as this criminal T. He is nothing but a savage at heart. I hope Graterford welcomes him with open arms. Asshole.

optimist, i find that most of your comments tilt a little on the racist side. since you have the mental IQ of approx a 4 y/o, i can understand your jaded retorts. unfortunately, you are a fraud hiding behind your pree-paid mobile phone. regardless of this mans criminal history, we do not know what occurred until a judge and jury listen to the information. now, if he is guilty of the allegations, then he will be charged, if not he will be freed. that is how the system works. @2amendment, President Obama is trying to control certain type of guns from being available. assault weapons belong on battlefields, not the streets. you can own as many other guns that you like. quit with the useless rhetoric and understand the reality. @james, you report what they provide to you. if the allegeations hold true, then so be it. this are the charges that the police have provided based on their investigations. no more or no less. what i will say to all, if you do not place yourself in a certain type of situation, no one will come looking for you. change you habits, behaviors and your situation will change. it really is just that simple!!! check facts folks, there are more white on welfare, that any other minority; caucasion youth and adults use more drugs than many other ethnicities; most of the drugs brought into this country is brought in by caucasions.

James. You are doing a pristine job. Most people that comment on here dont!!! Keep up the excellent work. By the way this criminal will have low T while he is in prison. I guarantee it.

All you dumbasses who say he's a stand up guy. Is freaking hilarious . One he has a criminal record since 2003 . Highly doubt the cops would put charges on him if it wasn't the case. And another chick you have a lot of time on your hand to be all over all patches feeds. Why don't you take your own advice and not feed into it. Haha. Yeah I'm white and if you do the crime you do the time. That's what wrong with Norristown people don't want to snitch and get these low- life off our streets. James you do a damn good job you only post what the police give you. FOH!!!!!

MENT CHUCK

The negative comments and bickering back and forth are unnecessary. Norristown already looks bad and the residents posting these messages makes us look like a bunch of ignorant low life’s. Put your energy into mentoring young people and making our town safer. We should be supporting the police in finding the people that took the lives of so many young people in this town. I grew up in West Norriton and have lived in this area all my life. It makes me sad when my kids tell me they can’t wait to move out of Norristown but I can’t say that I blame them when so many of their friends have been victims to violence.

Sad that many have turned this into a black/white thing. Color has nothing to do with who a criminal is.......I hire both black and white ex-cons and the only thing they have in common is making very stupid choices. Many came from good families but drugs or easy money took them down a path that was wrong. As I stated in earlier post some get it others don't. Mr. Griffin doesn't get it. He has been in trouble with the law since 2003. I am stunned by the amount of charges this man has had in 10 years. This is not a good person. For those that defend him, he may be a friend, brother or son but in God's name is this someone you want your kids emulating? May people defend criminals because they provide money or drugs to their close circle. Honestly this may be the case here.....He should be behind bars before he does kill someone.

Steve you keep talking like you 1. have a personal vendetta 2. are one of the police or 3. just talking cause its here. It doesn't matter what he has on his record. They always throw 300 charges on a case to make you look bad but again anpther idiot that does not know how to read a record for convictions just sit here and talk. Those losers at the station just want people to act just as ignorant and dumb as them and none of you got anything to say but a bunch of jibberish. You stunned for the amount of charges of convictions to the charges. If I am not mistaken everyone charged with something has a list of charges that sit there in the magistrates but under the commonwealth. You all have children that have been involved or will be involved regardless to how good they were raised just because their time didn't come yet doesn't mean it won't happen. Imagine if it were you kid, would you be sitting on here talking what you don't know? Seems like a bunch of judging and negativity. This is not a good person, what are your kids right now until you find out dirt they do? Smh

This is why I don't even bother to read this crappy patch news because its all street talk.

@ Itsjustme- WAKE THE HELL UP!! Obama is trying little by little to make this country just like the UK. SO assault weapons is a start and then he will call a ban on all firearms. Or will call Marshall Law. It is coming, you must be one of those brainwashed idiots who watch the news and believe everything you hear on there. Do your research, and stop watching what THE MEDIA reports. They are owned by the government and the Illuminati. They control what gets reported and how to brainwash Americans. Go on YouTube and watch the Sandy Hook shooting exposed. That should open your eyes to what is really going on. People are just too oblivious and ignorant to know what's really going on in this soon to be communist government. It is headed that way. So before you even comment, spend some time researching the truth. It is out there, you just need to do the work and figure it out. Watching the news won't reveal it. They cover things up to protect the big brother.

can patch let us know when his arraignment is and where it is? i would love to go.

hey you want an easy way to get the facts? http://webapp.montcopa.org:8080/inmatelookup?client=public check the box for released inmates... lets see.... robbery, robbery again, simple assault, parole violation with illegal possession of a firearm and drug possession, another simple assault, terroristic threats,drug possession, fleeing police and drug possession and finally 2 failure to appears and drug possession. The above was over an 11 year period.... the gaps of activity from 2003-2005 and 2008 and 2012 probably mean he was busy eaither A) leading a productive life in society or B) in jail

Haha optimist you are fighting a losing battle. These dumbasses are going to keep standing up for the great citizen. But like someone said if he was such a stand up guy. How come no one bailed him out???

Yo all yall molly poppin grimey mugs defending this pos like you know he didnt do it, yeah ok. This is why your town is bucked. People commit crimes n u see it then nobody knows nuttin when da po po show up then say the police didnt do nuffin. Well live in your own urine and feces then. One day u or a f may catch a stray and you can blame something udder den da problem. Dont hate da player, hate da game. Suckas

us as parents are OUR CHILDREN'S FIRST TEACHER...THESE KID ARE SUBJECTED TO ALL KIDS OF LIFESTYLES,BUT PLEASE KNOW THAT IT STARTS AT HOlME...PARENTS NEED TO START ASSUMING THEIR POSITION AS A PARENT N NOT AS A FRIEND.FOLKS FORGET THERE IS A LINE BETWEEN PARENTING N FRIENDSHIP ..STOP GETTING HIGH WITH THEM,STOP LETTING BAG UP THEY WORK N STORING IT AT YOUR HOUSE"JUS SO U CAN GET A COUPLE OF DOLLAR'S "...DONT WORRY ABOUT IF THEY MAD AT YOU,CAUSE IF THEY ARE YOU DOING YOUR JOB....THESE KIDS ARE NOT BORN LIKE THIS, THEY ARE CREATED.

the diploma from methacton means what at this point....what is sad is that he didn't take advanced of the better education that most of theses boys didn't receive..just goes to show you that,the brightest education means nothing,STRUCTURE,ENFORCEMENT,GUIDANCE,A LITTLE TLC,N SOME TYPE OF HIGHER POWER WILL ALWAYS B THE BEST TEACHER..THAT ALONE WILL MOLD YOU IN TO A"PRODUCTIVE "PERSON OF SOCIETY ..."THE WAY YOU WANT YOUR LIFE TO BE LIVED, IS THE CHOICES YOU MAKE"there is nothing in life worse than wasted talent

the police are to blame......thats what the natives are saying in norristown. its funny to me, how the ignorant people can sit back and blame the police for this animal shooting at people. thats why norristown is the way it is.

So what he is a father but it is ok for him to go around and rob other fathers? I don't think so

I dont even know why anyone is wasting their breath!!! Norristown is headed down a road of destrution and as long as they have a bag of weed, brazilian wavy weave and the lastest sneakers they are satisfied!!! SMH!!

Why don't ya'll all get a life. Most of you idiots probably don't even know him just going off what you hear. I hope your kids don't go down any wrong road while you are all so perfect because last i checked no one was perfect. I'm also sure you all have family members somewhere in the family that is involved with the law so stop trying to keep saying dumb shit on this dumb ass site. Optimist is a penis in someone's pant looking for something to get into. You probably resemble on of those dickhead detectives in that station too, lol.

laughing whats the matter? look yourself up there to see your track record? jealous t has more dings in his belt than you? Maybe we will be looking you up in the weeks ahead.

Ok I'm black with an education and earning a pretty good penny... but really it's not about race. If he were white black blue purple I would want him off the streets, This guy been to jail more than once. Mistakes happen and your entitled to make a mistake however you have to learn from them. T-man name Pops on the street smh none of it's good. You have these "white guys" not living in Norristown that notice T Man's name pops! But why? I pray if this guy innocent that he is freed but if not let justice come for the victims and their families. This BOY been in the system since he became an adult! Hopefully he learns and in the meantime I pray we get more people like T Man off the streets of Norristown. Very good basketball player at one time is one thing I have nice to say about this BOY. I pray for Norristown! Too many unsolved murders and robberies.Hey but Town does have one positive thing going on Temples K Wyatt! TU lol Black people we have to do better and want better. I would hate to see Norristown in 5 years

What incoherent blather that comment was. If you paid for an "education" demand a refund you were defrauded.
