Tiffany Henyard, the mayor of Dolton, Illinois, is under scrutiny for hosting an extravagant 'Taste of Thornton Township' festival that cost taxpayers over $85,000, featuring performances by Keke Wyatt and J. Holiday. Critics, including former trustee Valeria Stubbs, labeled the event a 'flop' due to low attendance and excessive spending on entertainment, such as $30,000 for Wyatt and $20,000 for J. Holiday. The festival's total expenses also included $6,600 for bounce houses and various other costs, raising concerns amid a federal investigation into Henyard's financial practices. Former Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot is leading an investigation into Dolton's finances, which reportedly peaked at a $3.65 million deficit. Despite facing allegations of misusing public funds, Henyard continues to promote her activities and dismiss concerns as 'fake news.' Local officials have responded by attempting to address the village's financial crisis and impose budgetary controls.
