Fine dining, first class travel costing taxpayers in south suburbs

A south suburban politician and her allies fly first class, dine at high-end restaurants and stay at posh hotels all on the taxpayers’ dime, according to credit card records reviewed by WGN Investigates.

She and her cronies will spend lavishly until they are charged arrested and hopefully convicted.

The gaslighting is strong with this one.

[hansonel]

She needs to be removed as mayor immediately and spend some time in jail since she doesn't care about anyone but herself. Dolton is one of the poorest towns in IL with many residents below the poverty line and she's spending taxpayer money on luxury travel and fine dining? How is that helping make the community better...? Absolutely deplorable narcissit!

[janetblack]

What an embarrassment. A slap in the face to all the citizens of that township.

[taloncalif]

If the allegations are true, all the cops "earning" outrageous overtime pay acting as her security and enforcers should be fired and charged.

[auscambaiting]

The sad part is she's been exposed by the media, by Youtube creators and the FBI and the attorney general are just sitting on the sidelines watching it all unfold as the town goes further into debt. Well done

Man…money can buy you a lot, but you can’t buy class.

She is the epitome of a narcissist!
Hopefully, one day, she will be held accountable for her actions!

If this woman doesn’t go to jail our justice system is TRULY dead.

This is absolutely insane that she hasn't been kicked out of office. Can't the FBI investigate?

[ferrellssales]

She seems very confident that nothing will happen to her, and so far she's been right. Is she being protected by someone higher in the political chain?

First bllk woman Mayor of Dalton and the first Mayor to put Dalton in this far in debt 🤦🏻‍♂️ Voting by color is killing Illinois

[Manwithaplan]

The fact that she claims to a peoples mayor while spending the hard earned money of working class marginalized people is absolutely insane lol

[dustinclary]

Letting stuff like this go on is why our country is a joke

[hypeviews]

Never in my life have I prayed for someone to go
To jail until now .

[Chgo]

I definitely want a front row seat on this take down.😏

[PRETTYBROWNEYES]

Why is she still in office that's the big question

[UntappedShesources]

Thank you WGN for keeping on this situation and keeping it in the public eye!!❤

[robertburke]

She was caught breaking into cars a few years ago, and look at her now!

[nahhh]

Her Netflix documentary is going to be wild after the guilty verdict.
