County OKs $2,500 seizure‑fund supplement for investigator handling child‑exploitation work
Summary
The commissioners unanimously approved a $2,500 supplement from seizure funds to increase Investigator Hill's pay starting Jan. 1, after the district attorney detailed the investigator's extensive work on child‑exploitation cases and cell‑phone extractions.
Henderson County Commissioners Court voted unanimously to approve using seizure funds to add $2,500 to Investigator Hill's salary, effective Jan. 1.
The district attorney explained the request by describing a large caseload of child‑exploitation matters and the labor‑intensive nature of cell‑phone extractions. “Investigator Hill has been working long hours having to go through that very difficult extractions,” the district attorney said, adding that Hill’s work has materially contributed to the office’s success on those cases.
Commissioners confirmed the increase will be paid from seizure funds and noted existing SB 22 supplements paid to investigators and attorneys; the approved $2,500 is described as an addition to existing supplements. The court recorded the motion and approved the request unanimously.
