In 1989, Hill and his wife were divorced after 25 years of marriage, Karen receiving custody of their children.
Hill was arrested in 1987 on narcotics-related charges. He claimed to have been clean since; however, he was arrested for felony cocaine possession in March 2005, and later pleaded guilty. Hill had left bags at Lee Bird Field Airport in North Platte, Nebraska, which later turned out to contain drug paraphernalia, including glass tubes with cocaine and methamphetamine residue. However the FBI, who had helped him obtain Witness Protection, had the judge remove the custodial sentence and replace it with probation. He also was charged with two other felony counts of possession, but he was allowed to plead no contest to a lesser charge of attempted possession. Hill said, during the Channel 4 documentary 'The Real GoodFella', that he didn't believe Vario would murder him but that when he died Burke probably made a request that they find and kill Hill. In September 2005, he was sentenced to 180 days in jail. Hill currently works as a chef at an Italian restaurant in the Midwest, his boss says that he will lie if alcohol is concerned, but is generally quite honest.
One of the great follies of Witness Protection was when they took Hill and his family from Omaha, where Burke had allegedly traced Hill to, to Lexington, Kentucky, where a massive prison housing members of the East Coast mafia were serving out life sentences. Hill got into an altercation with a Sheriff because he was worried that he may run into a family member of one of the criminals.
Hill was not in Witness Protection for very long before having shady dealings again: he entered business with a man named Jack Vance, whom he later argued with and his son's favourite horse, Flash, disappeared. Probably killed or captured by Vance as revenge.
On January 18, 2006, Hill reluctantly admitted (on the Howard Stern Show) that he had been raped and beaten by two unidentified males while he was living in Nebraska. Hill further admitted that the incident was videotaped and that his attorney (who was also not identified) had a copy of the videotape.
On January 26, 2006, Hill came into the Howard Stern Show with a copy of his rape on tape. Howard Stern recapped the account, mentioning that Henry claimed two acquaintances drugged him at a Nebraska bar and later filmed themselves raping him with a sex toy in the woods. Although Henry denied that he actually set up the event in order to sell the tape, his soon-to-be ex-wife, Kelly, called in and claimed that Henry was the one who was trying to market the video. Kelly has since recanted her accusation in a videotaped confession and also admitted she was coerced by one of the perpetrators.

I saw him on a tv show about the NY mob recently, he is still around. All those guys from his old family are dead or in jail. So I think he is out of hiding, though I am sure he doesn't have a published phone number.

He's still alive, but he isn't hiding. He was living out in Long Beach, CA for a while I think.
