Hill is accused of using his office for personal gain while previously serving as sheriff from 2005 to 2008. He denies any wrongdoing. If convicted, he will be removed from office.

Hill originally faced nearly 40 counts of corruption and theft by taking, but the judge threw out several of those charges. Prosecutors want to be able to tell jurors about the dropped charges to show a pattern of corrupt behavior. Judge Albert B. Collier is expected to make a decision on that request before jury selection begins.
During a pretrial hearing Friday, the judge ruled that Hill will be able to wear his badge during trial, but will not be allowed to wear his uniform or carry a gun.
