Hill, Derek Anthony
Not on GDC's 2025 payroll (last listed 2024)
Profile written September 23, 2026
This profile reflects positional accountability — this individual held the leadership roles shown during the dates shown, during which the listed deaths or lawsuits occurred. Inclusion does not constitute a legal finding of personal culpability for any specific incident.
Tenure Summary
According to position and salary records compiled by Georgia Prisoners' Speak from Georgia Department of Corrections personnel data, no deaths are attributed to any facility-leadership tenure held by Derek Anthony Hill. His documented career spans 2015 through 2024, beginning as a corrections officer and moving through correctional administration, deputy warden, and behavioral health counselor roles. The records name no facility for any of these postings, and no warden-level tenure appears in them. Because no deaths are attributed to a leadership posting, there is no facility-level death count, cause pattern, or death-during-tenure roster to report for Hill.
His highest accountability-tier entries are deputy warden positions carried on the books across 2016–2022, alongside concurrent behavioral health counselor 1 and 2 titles held from 2018 through 2024. Consistent with GPS methodology, those non-leadership and deputy-tier periods are reported here only as roles and dates; no inference is drawn about incident or death activity at any facility during them. Court records show Hill named as a defendant in two federal lawsuits in the Middle District of Georgia while those records list him in a deputy warden title, detailed below.
