Well known speed trap as we drove through it after flying to the
north.

We have driven many times through this town after flying to far north
Florida along highway 301.

But, as it turns out, surprised motorists are not the only ones
getting burned. So many speeding tickets were churned out for so many years and
with such brazenness that this city of 477 residents came under scrutiny — and
not just for revenue raising with a radar gun. Now, Hampton, an 89-year-old
city, is fighting legislative momentum to wipe it off the map, after a state
audit last month uncovered reams of financial irregularities, shoddy
record-keeping and missing funds.

The state attorney, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement and the Bradford
County Sheriff’s Office recently opened a criminal investigation, focusing
primarily on the actions of the city’s three former full-time employees — the
city clerk, the maintenance operator and the police chief.

“If half of this is remotely true, they’ve used the city as a personal
pocketbook,” said the Bradford County sheriff, Gordon Smith, who routinely
butted heads with John Hodges, Hampton’s police chief.
