Editor’s note: This is the first in a four-part series regarding the history of former San Luis Obispo County Supervisor Adam Hill based on statements and interviews released as part of a federal criminal trial regarding corruption, bribery, and fraud.Philanderer, corrupt politician, bully, and drug addict are just a few terms used to describe former San Luis Obispo County Supervisor Adam Hill.
Dayspring later admitted to paying thousands of dollars in bribes to Hill for favorable votes on his cannabis business interests. While under a federal investigation, Hill committed suicide with an overdose of cocaine and antidepressants on Aug. 6, 2020. Amid the chaos, Hill’s father moved out, his mother went to work and she continued to raise Hill and his sister.
Shortly after graduation, “Hill applied to and was accepted by the CIA.” However, before he started “he received a letter rescinding the employment offer with no reason given.” Hill decided to run for a seat on the SLO County Board of Supervisors in 2007. Around that time, Hill met attorney Don Ernst.
After winning the seat in the June 2008 primary, Hill selected Devine to serve as his administrative assistant. Torres believes Devine may have been working as a “mole” for Ernst.
