Dolton Mayor Tiffany Henyard is no stranger to controversy. On Monday night, however, Henyard raised the bar to heights not seen before. A regularly scheduled board meeting began an hour late following what police called a credible threat. Specifics of what the threat entailed and who it was made by weren’t immediately released.

This chaos comes in part due to Henyard’s recent move to veto an investigation into her spending habits, which is simply an incredible amount of power to have.

Dolton residents have expressed support for the village board and their call for an investigation into the mayor.
