"This is the hardest thing I have ever had to do, but I believe it is the best thing for my constituents, my community, and our country," Hill said in a statement."For the mistakes made along the way and the people who have been hurt, I am so sorry, and I am learning."There's plenty to parse regarding the news about Hill.
