Dalton, Illinois Mayor Tiffany Henyard has been accused of everything from spending public money on luxury goods to weaponizing local law enforcement.
Henyard has also been accused of sexual assault by a former colleague.
In response to the bevy of ongoing scandals surrounding the suburban Chicago mayor, the FBI has issued a subpoena for employee records, county files, financial records, and more.
Many sources speculated that Henyard may soon be out, and possibly in jail, following these recent developments. Here’s what we currently know:

According to Daily Mail, Henyard’s top aide was also recently charged:
The 45-year-old failed to disclose earnings from his role as Village Administrator for Dolton and the Municipality Manager for Thornton Township, as well as fees he received from his consulting business, according to a federal indictment.
He also did not notify the court of a $90,000 claim against him from his previous employers, the Village of Robbins, meaning they were excluded from his bankruptcy case, the filings state.
