Democratic Mayor Tiffany Henyard of the small village of Dolton, Illinois, vetoed a resolution on Monday by a local board calling for an external probe to be launched into her alleged misuse of funds.
The self-described “super mayor,” who has gained national attention for being accused of spending taxpayer money on luxurious trips and weaponizing police in retaliatory business raids, slammed last month’s vote by the Dolton village board as being illegal and driven by personal attacks from a “boys club.”
Henyard vowed to “fight back” against the alleged smear campaign against her, in which she has been accused of traveling on first-class flights to Las Vegas, spending hefty amounts at beauty vendors and splashing over $1 million on a police detail, despite the small village having a population of around 23,000 people.
The resolution she vetoed also called for her to submit the village’s financial records.
