When he was really young, Josaun was taken from his heroin addict parents by social services. After spending time in a few different foster homes, Josaun was eventually adopted full-time by his case worker, a third generation police officer.
Despite being taken in by a good, honest family, Jo was never able to shake the influence of his natural parents' "All About Me" attitude. Stealing and fighting became a constant part of his life, and he was even forced to change schools once because he had been caught blackmailing and extorting some of his classmates.
Keeping high hopes for Jo, his foster father constantly bailed him out of situations. He had even lined him up with a job in one of the local police departments when he got of school. Jo, not one to follow the straight and narrow, took off to an out-of-state college to study Human Anatomy shortly after he got out of high school.
After only a year of college, Jo dropped out. After watching a few tv series about S.W.A.T. teams and being enthralled, Jo seemed to have a change of heart and pleaded to his foster father to help him get into a big city police department. Using what little influence he had, Jo's foster father was able to get a glowing recommendation from his precinct's commanding officer and help get Jo accepted into a department.
All was not well for Jo, however. He quickly found out that it would take years to get onto the S.W.A.T. team and that most of that time would be spent out on beat patrols. Jo was given the opportunity to advance by volunteering to help out the investigation teams and he eagerly jumped at the opportunity.
Because of his young appearance, Jo was occasionally used to help flush out drug dealers selling to the local high school kids. More often than not, however, he finds himself playing a glorified baby sitter to some kid of a rich guy who happens to be friends with the Chief and suspects that their kid may be up to something illegal. Left with these usually boring tasks, Jo finds himself looking for his own entertainment with the other students.
