I'm new to Hilton Head and I'm looking for cool and fun places to see on the Island. How can an outsider, and a new resident, figure out where to go? I look no further than Stephen Paul Hempley.
Just who is Mr. Hempley?
Mr. Hempley worked as a waiter at "The Wreck" in Sea Pines. His career there spanned 4 days. He was fired on Day 5 for not showing up for his shift. But Mr. Hempley had a reason for not showing up.
Allegedly, on Feb 14, 2006, Mr. Hempley, while working as a waiter, stole Roger Couch's credit card information during a dinner on Valentine's Day. Then, using Mr. Couch's stolen credit card information, Hempley went on a 10 restaurant and bar spree spending almost $1,000 over three days.
Mr. Hempley's spree was documented courtesy of the Beaufort County Sheriff's Office:
