FBI serves subpoenas at Chicago suburb of scandal-ridden ‘supermayor’ Tiffany Henyard
Henyard has been accused of misdeeds ranging from weaponizing police raids to spending taxpayer money on luxuries in Las Vegas
The FBI on Friday served subpoenas in the Chicago suburb where controversial Mayor Tiffany Henyard has faced accusations of corruption, Fox 32 Chicago reports.Â
Henyard, the self-described “supermayor” of Dolton, and Thornton Township Supervisor, has recently been dubbed the “worst mayor in America” by critics after being accused of misdeeds ranging from weaponizing police raids to spending taxpayer money on luxuries in Las Vegas.
Most recently, the scandal-ridden mayor has also come under fire for an alleged sexual assault by one of her allies during the Vegas trip, where the alleged victim claims to have been fired after speaking out.
On Friday, four agents from the FBI paid a visit to Dolton at around 2:30 p.m. where they served two federal subpoenas, according to Fox 32.
The first one was for employment records, personnel files, and disciplinary reports for 25 Dolton employees, including three police officers and Keith Freeman, who is the village administrator and Henyard’s top aide.
Freeman was charged with bankruptcy fraud on Monday.
The second subpoena was served specifically for Freeman, asking for records of all companies associated with him and possible ties to the village.
“The House of Cards are collapsing,” Burt Odelson, who serves as the Legislative Counsel for the Village of Dolton Board of Trustees., tells Fox 32. “I think the government is taking action.”
The FBI did not provide any more information pertaining to the subpoenas and Henyard herself was not served.
In February, it was reported that the FBI was investigating the mayor, as six individuals had reportedly spoken to the agency about her alleged misconduct, including “business owners, a former village employee and one or more public officials.”
