The three-month-long trial of former Mayor Pro Tem Don Hill and four others is examined in
this week�s cover story by Sam Merten, along with
an accompanying piece by columnist Jim Schutze. A jury on October 5 found the five co-defendants guilty of 23 of the 29 counts against them in a bribery and extortion scheme involving two affordable-housing developers, one of which was an FBI informant. Photos by Sam Merten.
