When contacted by NBC Chicago, Henyard's landlord didn't want to comment on the details of the lawsuit. NBC Chicago also reached out to Henyard for comment, but we had yet to receive a response as of Sunday afternoon. Henyard is at the center of several probes and lawsuits, with an ongoing federal grand jury investigation that began in November 2023 among them. In the newest twist,Henyard recently appointed a new police chief, village attorney and village administrator without the consent of the Dolton Village Board. A temporary restraining order was issued against Henyard and the three appointees, ordering them not to come to Village Hall while allowing other personnel to continue their work as normal.
