[@RumbleFish69]

Hiring Lightfoot almost justifies everything that has been done to the people of Dolton. Stupid people deserve to be ripped-off and have the worst things happen to them! Henyard has already said that Lightfoot will not be paid because she considers her investigation to be illegal. But beyond that, Henyard has refused to give documents to federal investigators months ago. So, what makes anyone think that she is going to give Lightfoot documents when she hasn't given those very documents to people with bigger badges than Lightfoot? It's a waste of time and money....Well, not money because apparently Lightfoot is doing this pro bono!

[@redshed2020]

I think she was a horrible mayor but she was actually a federal prosecutor. She'd know what to look for.

[@RumbleFish69]

@redshed2020 Knowing what to look for doesn't help when no one is turning over any documents. If Henyard is not giving these documents to federal investigators who have more power than Lightfoot, what makes you think Lightfoot will get them? Shit, Lightfoot is not even getting paid.
