Help Joe.

On June 3, 2023, Joe Cocchini was arrested by City of Franklin Police for the crime of criminal trespassing…in a public park.

Many people attended the pride event that day in Franklin, TN with an aim to talk with people, pray with people, and simply act as a watchman to ensure that activities occurring in a public place were not contrary to state law or what was agreed upon in discussions with the city council.

Some were denied entry for carrying a Bible. Some were asked to leave because they “made people feel uncomfortable.” But Joe was arrested by police because he was lawfully and respectfully occupying a public place.

Now, Joe faces criminal charges for praying. Tennessee Stands is paying for his defense and we need your help.
