#2,458 - Dolton drama continues as fired deputy police chief ILLEGALLY reappointed by Supermayor
Manage episode 435376615 series 2792715
The showdown between Dolton Mayor Tiffany Henyard and the village’s Board of Trustees escalated further this week, as Henyard reappointed a fired deputy police chief to lead the department.
Three village trustees told NBC Chicago’s Regina Waldroup that Henyard appointed former Deputy Chief Lewis Lacey to be the department’s new leader, but that he has not been sworn in. They argue that the appointment was “illegal,” and are seeking legal guidance on the matter.
Lacey was fired last week after being placed on a leave of absence. After he continued to show up to work, he was fired by the board according to village officials.
Henyard’s office has not responded to NBC Chicago’s request for comment.
Lacey was indicted this week on bankruptcy fraud charges, with prosecutors alleging that he had concealed assets and income from creditors and took steps to prevent payment of a lawsuit settlement.
