Former Clayton County Sheriff Victor Hill is back in the spotlight, this time as an author after being released from a stint in Arkansas prison. According to WSB-TV, Hill is working on a book about his career and the "untold story" of the events that led to his conviction. Teasing the release on his Facebook page, Hill invites readers to judge whether he was a vigilante during his nearly 15-year tenure as sheriff.

Despite his legal setbacks, which include a 2022 conviction on federal civil rights charges for using excessive force on inmates, Hill has been vocal since leaving prison grounds in March. Assisting Felicia Franklin's political campaign and teaming with Orrin "Checkmate" Hudson to promote chess for youth, volunteering, Hill hasn't wasted any time reacclimating to the outside world. In a Facebook update, Hill’s marketing manager, Joseph Brown, credits the former sheriff with using his time behind bars to pen the upcoming book, titled "Vigilante Sheriff?" as per a statement obtained by FOX 5 Atlanta.

Hill's book aims to detail his time as sheriff and his imprisonment, expectedly offering his perspective on the charges that led to his downfall. After serving less than a year of his 18-month sentence, Hill was transferred to community confinement, which will be governed by the bureau's Atlanta Residential Reentry Management Office, FOX 5 Atlanta reports.

The 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals rejected Hill's appeal of his October 2022 conviction last month, denying his claims of insufficient evidence and mishandling by the district court. "We reject each one," explained U.S. Circuit Judges in their ruling, affirming that established case law prohibits excessive force on compliant, nonresistant detainees. Following his full release, the disgraced sheriff began serving six years of supervised probation, with no update on the completion of his mandatory 100 hours of community service, as detailed by WSB-TV.
