Just over a week after a Thornton Township meeting broke out in brawl involving Supervisor Tiffany Henyard, anti-Henyard activists and others, township trustees met Thursday to discuss their budget proposal and fire two employees.

This came nine days after a brawl in which Henyard's boyfriend and Henyard herself were involved. But Henyard's boyfriend, Kamal Woods, had already been suspended for work performance.

After a fight broke out at last week’s Thornton Township board meeting, the board’s attorney is asking the state for permission to hold meetings remotely.

At the meeting, the board fired two township employees. As Jermont Terry reports, one of the workers the trustees fired was Kamal Woods, the boyfriend of Thornton Township Supervisor Tiffany Henyard.

Chaos erupted after community activist Jedidiah Brown called Thornton Township Supervisor Tiffany Henyard an expletive.

Witnesses say it all started when a community activist and frequent critic of Supervisor Tiffany Henyard told her, “You gone, b—ch."

Board supervisor Tiffany Henyard and activist Jedidiah Brown traded barbs Wednesday, a day after Brown's comments about the embattled Henyard — who is also the mayor of Dolton — sparked a melee.
