I know there were a few threads about this mayor but as a refresher she is flying first class, paying thousands of dollars for her own security from tax payer money, and tried to pass a bill that says if anyone besides her is elected mayor the pay drops from over $200K per year to $10K.

She also overrode the city council and built an ice skating rink despite the town being broke and voting against it. She took the town from being a million in the hole to like $4 million in the hole.

Well, due to all the attention social media has given her antics the FBI took notice and they are witch hunting her

FBI probes misconduct allegations against Dolton Mayor Tiffany Henyard

quote:
There is new information indicating the FBI has launched an investigation into controversial Dolton Mayor and Thornton Township Supervisor Tiffany Henyard.

FOX 32 has been reporting for nearly two years on allegations of corruption surrounding Henyard in her capacity as mayor and supervisor. Now, we've learned from multiple sources that federal agents are interviewing witnesses as part of a possible investigation that may — or may not — result in charges.

Lawrence Gardner owns a U-Haul rental and trucking business in south suburban Dolton and says he went to the FBI several months ago, frustrated that the Village of Dolton would not renew his business license.

Gardner said the FBI agents took his allegations seriously: "Yes. Very serious. Very."

Gardner said he's been harassed and his business raided and shut down by Dolton Police. Gardner believes it’s retaliation after he refused to make a donation to a civic event sponsored by Dolton Mayor Tiffany Henyard.

"I talked to a couple of agents and I explained to them what’s going on," Gardner said. "I gave them all my paperwork to show them what was happening in court and what was happening in Dolton. And they told me they were investigating and would be in touch with me."

Gardner is one of six people who confirmed to FOX 32 that they've been interviewed by the FBI. They range from Dolton business owners to a former village employee and at least one public official.

We've also learned the FBI has used electronic surveillance as part of its investigation.

Agents are asking questions about Henyard's alleged use of taxpayer dollars and resources, including massive spending on out-of-town trips. They’ve also inquired about hundreds of thousands of dollars in police overtime for Henyard’s personal security detail, her alleged use of public employees and tax dollars for personal benefit, and the holding up of licenses to certain businesses.

Dewayne Wood has been trying to renew the business license for his restaurant for nearly a year.

"I've heard rumors that say hey I'm on the wrong team," Wood said.

Wood has not talked to the FBI, but he believes he can't get "Wood’s Kitchen" approved because he has provided catering to several Dolton trustees who are engaged in a political fight with Henyard.

"I think I've been targeted because of my association, affiliation with a certain group of people," Wood said. "The trustees. I've cooked for the trustees."
