That was ballsy.

An NYPD detective has been suspended for using another cop's body camera to shoot an X-rated video of his privates, the Daily News has learned.

Detective Specialist Raymond Williams, a neighborho­od coordinati­on officer at the 79th Precinct, was suspended Thursday, law enforcemen­t sources said.

Williams waited until unsuspecti­ng cop Michael Devonish — another neighborho­od coordinati­on officer — went to the men's room in their Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, stationhou­se before he snatched Devonish's body camera and put it to anatomical abuse.

On Oct 2, Williams “took possession of another member of the service's department issued body camera and recorded a 32-second second video consisting of him intentiona­lly exposing his testicles while in the 79 Precinct Special Operations Office,” according to police documents acquired by The News.

Williams' private parts were on full display, and he even rubbed his them, sources said.

“If he's an NCO, that's worse,” the source explained. “He's supposed to be a positive influence on the community.”

Devonish saw the freaky footage the next day but never alerted his bosses, documents reveal.

The NYPD only found out about the phallic prank when a woman working in the department's Legal Bureau spotted the curious clip while reviewing body camera recordings on Nov 20.

Her supervisor called the NYPD's Internal Affairs Bureau, which launched an investigat­ion, according to police papers.

Detective Williams, who traded in a Fed Ex uniform for NYPD blues in 2008, did not respond to a request for comment.
