Supervisor Adam Hill

Clarification: Sources are now saying while it appears Supervisor Adam Hill killed himself, he did not use a gun.

San Luis Obispo County Supervisor Adam Hill was found dead in his home Thursday afternoon.

At about 4 p.m., emergency responders arrived at Hill’s Pismo Beach home to find him dead, a suspected suicide.

In March, Hill attempted suicide, just hours after FBI agents raided his office at the County Government Center and his home.

Hill checked into a residential mental health facility in July. He returned to work on Monday.

Are you taking notes Heidi and Dow? Amongst others.


I bow my head in approval.


Oh Wow, I know he was having issues, I don’t know why I am so shocked. And despite not respecting his ways. I still am saddened to hear of his death. Now he will finally be at Peace.


“Now he will finally be at Peace.” Gramelin


But perhaps not.


Just wait until the latest disgusting allegations surface…


What are the allegations?


Who will be the next domino to fall? HH?


Lots of options, JS or JL?


If he’s on the ballot, he’ll be re-elected.


OMG! This is best reply i’ve ever read!


Hmmm…. with Cal Poly students learning from home, I wonder how much this will influence local elections?


If they are still registeted voters here and since everyone is getting a ballot mailed to them no matter where they are living right now nothing will change.


Most bullies are cowards, he took the cowards way out, instead of taking his beatings in the court system, because its a pretty good guess he would be there, he choose to exit.

Lets hope we get someone in that seat that doesn’t have corruption as their middle name.


Amen to that Myself!


Just sad and cowardly. Were there barriers and interventions in place before leaving the mental health facility recently?


I don’t know him, but this makes me sad.


RIP, Supervisor Hill.
