Comments
DO NOT let her resign…investigate to the fullest extent of the law and throw her 🫏 in jail. Arrest and incarcerate.
This isn’t just a local shame, it’s been a national shame for the past 2 years
The mayor should be arrested and press charges
It's shocking that electing a known criminal would result in her doing more criminal activity.
Indict her immediately. Put her in prison and set an example.
Several years in prison and pay it all back! This happens all over the country when people in power aren't checked consistently!
The chief of police and the entire police force should be fired for their roll in overtime abuse. 1 officer clocked 303 hrs in a 2 week paycheck. WHAT?!!
Shes done and going down‼️‼️ So all the trustee and the citzens lyin!? What a clown and disgrace😂
The fact she can veto herself being investigated is comical lmao
As a mayor, how can you "veto" an investigation of yourself? 🤣🤣🤣 ..The legal system is a joke.
Whatever they do, they better not get their police department to do the investigating. It's clear most of it is in Henyard's back pocket.
Why do they have to vote to investigate her? why doesn't the police and FBI just do what they are supposed to do.
Get the police department as well.🤔
This is who the people of Dolton voted for. Definitely getting what they voted for.
How is this woman woman Tif not in jail???🤡🤡🤡
Shout out to the Dolton Board and Trustees. Patriots and truth fighters, proud of you, from Oregon
Sounds like the Mayor AND the police dept need to be investigated. Great to see the council doing the right thing we need more politicians like them!
"you axed me a question and I responded"
Well done to the trustees who are trying to save their community 👏
Need to investigate the polce too and the DA
