Kids First Swim School Manager Charged With Sexual Contact With 16-Year-Old Employee in Ashton, PA.

Kids First Swim School Manager Accused of Sexual Contact With Teen Employee

Police said Hill worked as a manager at Kids First Swim School in Aston, Pennsylvania, a business with nearly 2 dozen locations across multiple states. The teenage victim also worked at the same location.

During their investigation, New Castle County detectives discovered that the teen had spent the night at Hill's home on South Cannon Drive. It was during that stay, police said, that Hill engaged in unlawful sexual contact with the teen.

Text Messages And A Trip To Mexico Raise Red Flags

As detectives dug further into the case, they uncovered what police described as concerning text message exchanges between Hill and the victim. Investigators also learned that Hill had taken the teen on a trip to Mexico back in January.

These findings, combined with the account of the overnight stay, formed the basis of the charges now filed against Hill. He is currently being held at the Howard R. Young Correctional Institution as the case moves forward. He remains in custody on $21,000 secured bail.

What Victims Of Workplace Sexual Abuse Need To Know About Their Legal Options

When a student is sexually abused by someone in a position of authority, such as a manager or supervisor, the path forward can feel overwhelming and unclear. To better understand what legal options exist for victims in these situations, we spoke with Pennsylvania attorney Ashley DiLiberto, who handles sexual abuse cases, covering everything from civil claims to the statute of limitations and what survivors should know before coming forward.

Q: What legal options do victims have if they were sexually abused by a manager or supervisor at work?

A: Victims generally have the option to pursue a civil lawsuit against the abuser and, in many cases, the employer as well. If the business knew or should have known about the risk and failed to act, that can open the door to a claim against the company itself, not just the individual.

Q: How long do victims have to take legal action in Pennsylvania?

A: Pennsylvania's statute of limitations varies depending on the victim's age at the time of the abuse and the type of claim being filed. Because these timelines can be complex, especially for cases involving minors, it's worth speaking with an attorney as soon as possible to understand what deadlines apply.

Q: What if the victim is hesitant to come forward?

A: That hesitation is common and understandable. An attorney can walk a victim and their family through the process privately, answer questions, and help them decide whether and how to proceed, all without any pressure or obligation.

Q: What should someone do if they suspect a child or teen they know has been abused by a supervisor or someone in a position of authority?

A: Document what you know, report it to the appropriate authorities, and consult with an attorney who handles these cases. Acting early can help preserve evidence and protect the victim's legal options going forward.
