What is nick hillary?

Nick Hillary is a former college soccer coach who gained national attention in 2011 when he was accused of murdering 12-year-old Garrett Phillips in Potsdam, New York. Hillary, who is originally from Jamaica, had been in a relationship with Garrett's mother at the time of the murder.

Hillary was arrested and charged with second-degree murder in connection with Phillips' death. The case garnered significant media coverage and controversy due to the lack of physical evidence linking Hillary to the crime and the perception by some that he was unfairly targeted by law enforcement.

In September 2016, a jury found Hillary not guilty of the murder charges after a lengthy trial. Hillary has maintained his innocence throughout the ordeal and has since filed a lawsuit against the village of Potsdam and the police involved in his arrest, alleging civil rights violations and malicious prosecution.
