HUDSON COUNTY PROSECUTOR SUAREZ SWEARS IN NEW CHIEF OF DETECTIVES
New Chief Brings Over 30 Years of Law Enforcement Experience to HCPO Where He Will Lead Investigative Units
JERSEY CITY – Hudson County Prosecutor Esther Suarez appointed yesterday afternoon the agency’s new Chief of Detectives, James A. Parker, who comes to the Hudson County Prosecutor’s Office with three decades of law enforcement experience having served in both Philadelphia and with the New Jersey State Police where he rose to the rank of Major. He was sworn in by the Honorable Jeffrey R. Jablonski, A.J.S.C. during a small ceremony.
During his tenure with the State Police, Parker was assigned several important supervisory roles – including as Administrative Lieutenant for the Superintendent and as Commanding Officer of both the Administrative Section and the Office of Professional Standards. As part of the Superintendent’s leadership team, Chief Parker managed staffs of over 100 officers, supervised budgets and departmental procurements, and managed over $100 million in federal grants to the New Jersey State Police.
“Chief Parker is a leader who demands the best from himself and those who he supervises and he will bring this leadership style to our investigative units as we work to deliver the highest level of justice for the people of Hudson County,” said Prosecutor Suarez. “We are pleased to welcome him to our team and know he will accomplish great things.”
