Thornton Township residents rally for transparency as lawsuits pile up for township supervisor Tiffany Henyard
THORNTON TOWNSHIP, Ill. -- People in Thornton Township are demanding transparency and accountability from their leaders. This comes after a series of claims and concerns involving Tiffany Henyard, township supervisor and mayor of Dolton. Dozens of residents joined a rally in Calumet City Saturday afternoon. Accusations and lawsuits have been piling up for Henyard. The people gathered said they want change, and they want to take their township back.
Former employees accuse her of wrongful termination. Others claim she covered up alleged sexual misconduct involving a village trustee during a trip to Las Vegas. 'What does it take to put Dolton on the global map? Well, now we know: maybe what people are calling the worst mayor in the country,' said David Greising, president of the Better Government Association.
