#2,725 - Tiffany Henyard Held In “DIRECT Criminal Contempt” and Orders Of Protection AGAINST Her

During today’s Hearing on the liquor license dispute where Tiffany Henyard, as Mayor of Dolton, Illinois, refused to sign liquor licenses for a local business, and was ordered by the Court to sign them, the Judge cleared up what was in the docket from last week. The Judge stated she will correct the docket to reflect Henyard is in “Direct Criminal Contempt” as opposed to the entry stating “indirect” criminal contempt, for her refusal to obey the Orders of the Court last week. The village and Henyard have 14 days to provide a written response to the contempt issue and the issue of Henyard claiming there are no package liquor licenses available, while at the same time the Village Clerk says there are package liquor licenses available. Additionally, but not part of today’s hearing, Jedidiah Brown was granted Emergency Orders of Protection against Thornton Township Supervisor Tiffany Henard and her married boyfriend as a direct result of the brawl that occurred during the last Thornton Township board meeting.
