Jedidiah Brown, the Illinois man who went viral for brawling with Dolton Mayor Tiffany Henyard and her boyfriend at a city board assembly within the Chicago suburbs, is sharing his aspect of the story … telling us the throwdown was certain to occur.
We caught up with Jedidiah on the “TMZ Verified” podcast, the place JB defined how prior pressure between himself and the mayor led to their headline-making tussle.
As Jedidiah put it … he confronted 9 months’ value of threats and disrespectful encounters earlier than issues escalated on the now-infamous city board assembly. He even shared footage of a earlier run-in between himself — on a bullhorn — and Mayor Henyard’s boyfriend, Kamal, once they exchanged nasty insults.
For this reason Jedidiah did not really feel the necessity to apologize for the way in which he addressed Mayor Henyard on the public assembly … noting it was the “way we greet each other” in Dolton.
He added … “This sound bite that everyone is talking about is a reaction. I am the effect, not the cause … Me calling her that word was nice.”
For many who missed the drama when it first broke, Jedidiah referred to as Henyard a “half-assed mayor,” and a “bitch,” amongst a number of different insults … prompting her important different to step in and get bodily with the activist.
Jedidiah informed us he wasn’t shocked by the boyfriend’s response … although, he referred to as out Kamal for being a “coward” for beginning a battle whereas he was strolling away.

He continued … “I didn’t come to fight, but I am willing to defend myself. So, I’m proud of him for standing up — kinda — and proud of her for fighting for her man.”
Mayor Henyard is not seeking to apologize both … her legal professional, Beau B. Brindley, spoke with Fox 32 and blamed the “endless false accusations and outright lies” concerning the politician because the trigger for the violence.
Seems to be like these two should conform to disagree for now.
