Hilton Entitled Pension in State Kickback Case
The Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruled Frank C. Hilton, convicted extortionist and former state secretary of property and supplies, is entitled to his pension.

Hilton, free on appeal, faces potential prison terms from two convictions and a pending $177,000 repayment suit. Governor Shapp appointed him in 1971 and dismissed him in 1974 amid kickback scandal.
