She might want to get used to orange.

indings from an investigation into Dolton's finances led by former Chicago mayor Lori Lightfoot were revealed in part Thursday night, showing a widespread of pattern of misused funds and significant debt.

The probe examined the village's finances and spending habits of Mayor Tiffany Henyard's administration, which is the subject of multiple lawsuits and complaints.


“It was an eye opener to us, but also to the residents to see the wrongdoing on paper,” Dolton trustee Tammy Brown said.

Trustees hired Lightfoot to look into spending by Henyard and her administration. The probe found that the village has not had annual reports or audits since 2021.

Lightfoot's investigation also uncovered that the village's general fund, which had a multi-million dollar surplus earlier this decade, is now in the red by $3.6 million.


The probe also found that the village police department's expenditures have increased by 21%, with two officers receiving more money in overtime pay than in regular pay. Dolton's Deputy Police Chief has received more than $200,000 in overtime pay.

Additionally, Lightfoot found that nearly 600 checks worth more than $6 million were approved but not sent to vendors. The probe found that the village uses six different credit cards, though receipts are rarely provided.

"Lightfoot was hired with a rate of $400 an hour to investigate Henyard and her alleged misuse of finances"

LOL, grifts within grifts!

I will be shocked beyond words if she actually receives any punishment.

Over $1,000,000......This is a Class X felony, which can result in up to 30 years in prison and a $25,000 fine.

It is pretty shocking that this has gone on as long as it has.

She has turned the police into her own security detail, at least a few of them. Why is this continuing?

Ummmm, it's called "official corruption"

A democrat party specialty.

She deserves prison time.

And reports range up to $10 million missing.

Sadly, white collar criminals rarely go to prison.

What did anyone really expect?

Henyard was arrested in 2016 for trespass to vehicles.

We've had those hoodrat types come through our neighborhood in the middle of the night, snooping through people's cars if they're left unlocked.

Increasing desperation and stupidity in every one of your postings. Unreadable, most.

WTF are you babbling about, loser? I'm agreeing with the OP.

There are too many people like this in government, all government. Whenever you can catch one, and that's hard because they have other crooked workers covering for them, you gotta nail their ass to the wall. If you don't, people will lose all faith in government and things could get real ugly. MAGA
