Colleton County, South Carolina - The technology director for Colleton County, Jeffrey Hill, was arrested on Tuesday by state agents on wiretapping charges. The arrest came following an investigation carried out by the 14th Circuit Solicitor's Office, in collaboration with the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division.

Hill, 34, is the son of Colleton County Clerk of Court, Rebecca Hill. According to an arrest warrant, he allegedly misused his position as the technology director to eavesdrop on a conversation between two victims on July 20, 2023. The warrant further states that the victims were unaware of being recorded and had not given their consent for the conversation to be recorded.

Phone records revealed that the call was recorded by an IP address linked to Hill's computer, providing evidence to support the charges. The details of the conversation and the identities of the victims were not disclosed in the information provided.

The investigation into Hill's actions was conducted by the 14th Circuit Solicitor's Office, within their Public Integrity Unit. This unit collaborates with the First Circuit Solicitor's Office to investigate cases related to alleged public corruption, officer-involved shootings, and use of force issues.

Following his arrest, Hill was taken into custody and jail records indicate that he was given a $20,000 bond. It is unclear at this time whether Hill has obtained legal representation or entered a plea. Further information regarding his arrest and any potential additional charges have not been provided.

As this case unfolds, authorities will continue to gather evidence and interview potential witnesses to determine the extent of Hill's involvement and any potential impact on the victims. Wiretapping is a serious offense, and if found guilty, Hill could face significant legal consequences.

The Colleton County community will be closely following the developments of this case as they await further information on the motives behind this alleged wiretapping incident and the potential implications it may have on individuals affected.
