Dolton Mayor Tiffany Henyard was confrontational toward residents during Monday's board meeting
People living in Dolton, Illinois, demanded answers from embattled Mayor Tiffany Henyard Monday night while attending a contentious board meeting.
Along with voicing displeasure about how the village is being run, residents questioned government spending during the meeting, which was marked with interruptions, disorganization, shouting and ejections.
Dolton police officers and Cook County Sheriff's deputies were at the meeting where attendees were required to walk through metal detectors in order to be allowed inside. At least three women were escorted out by police after Henyard accused them of being "out of order," according to FOX 32 Chicago.
"This village deserves so much more than it’s getting. From an outsider looking in, you’re being hoodwinked, bamboozled and led astray," one woman said at the podium during public comment.
"Watching as this village is being run into the ground by this woman is p---ing me off," another longtime resident said during their chance to speak.
Henyard, who is being investigated by the FBI for corruption, acted confrontational with the people she is supposed to represent.
"People who say things about me, I want you to prove it, because like I said, fact versus fiction," she said during the meeting.
