The Orlando Political Observer has been silent on the subject for a while, but now it’s time to address the million-dollar question swirling around Orlando politics: who is footing the bill for suspended Commissioner Regina Hill’s high-profile legal defense?
Hill has recently retained the services of Fritz Scheller, a well-known attorney in Florida’s legal circles, whose reputation is on par with that of Jose Baez and Mark Nejame. According to Scheller’s assistant, his going rate is $400 per hour—a price tag that certainly isn’t cheap. Legal experts we spoke with estimate that this defense could end up costing Hill somewhere in the range of $500,000, potentially even more.
So, the question remains: who is paying for this high-powered defense? Is it Developer A, Developer B, or perhaps a completely different benefactor? Or could Hill be drawing from her own personal savings? The latter seems unlikely, given that Hill herself stated on a Facebook Live stream that she is currently homeless. The irony is not lost on us: how does one claim homelessness and yet afford a defense that costs more than what most people earn in a decade?
In an effort to get to the bottom of this mystery, the Orlando Political Observer is offering a $1,000 reward to anyone who can provide verifiable proof of who is actually covering these legal fees. If you have credible information, you can come forward knowing that your identity will be kept strictly confidential.
This reward is being offered solely by the Orlando Political Observer Group LLC. The reason is simple: taxpayers deserve to know the truth. This is about transparency and accountability, and about making sure public figures are not misleading the very people they are supposed to serve.
So, if you have the information that could solve this puzzle, get in touch. It’s time for Orlando’s citizens to learn a valuable lesson about who really pays the price in the world of politics. Contact doug@orlandopolitics.com
