Obviously using the police to shake down businesses is extortion, but who can they complain to? The FBI? Good luck with that.

Financial turmoil continued to unfold in Dolton after a bank said the village failed to make a payment worth tens of thousands of dollars, which may result in police cruisers and other public works vehicles being repossessed.

According to a letter dated Feb. 14, 2024, representatives from KS StateBank are threatening to take possession of more than a dozen village vehicles, which includes six police cruisers, after the village failed to make a payment of more than $76,000 on the vehicles’ loan some nine months ago.

Lawyers for KS StateBank said in the letter, that the village and the bank entered into a Government Obligation Contract in May 2019, when the village financed 13 vehicles, for the principal amount of $332,761.50.

“Due to failure to maintain current payments, the Contract is now in default. As of the date of this letter, the amount past due is $76,138.00 with interest accruing thereon,” the letter stated.

According to the letter, repeated attempts to contact the Village of Dolton have been ignored and promises to pay have been broken.

Several trustees who spoke with WGN-TV, and Burt Odelson, legislative counsel for the Village of Dolton Board of Trustees, said the payment was authorized by the board in May 2023 and they were not aware it hadn’t been made.

“She can blame whoever she wants, but the board did their job back in May and authorized payment. She’s blocking payment,” said Odelson.

The ‘She’ in question is self-proclaimed Dolton ‘Super Mayor’ Tiffany Henyard.

Who cares what happens to the morons of Illinois.

They voted for these animals to rule them, they preened for decades about how virtuous they were and how evil the South was, they send garbage like Obama to Washington to destruct the entire country, they have a fat, drooling slob like Pritzker belching bilge at the rest of us, it goes on and on from these useless clowns.

A dim bulb tribal thug shakes them down? No different from the Jewish or Italian mobsters of the 1920’s in Chicago who are still with us even now.

These people need to stop whining and get a recall petition together. This would be over in a heartbeat.
