Officers at Trial of Milwaukee Judge Say Her Actions Made Their Job More Dangerous

Witnesses including FBI and deportation officers testify on obstruction and concealment charges against Judge Dugan related to April arrest of undocumented immigrant Eduardo Flores Ruiz.

  • Dec. 16, 2025, the high-profile trial of Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan continued Tuesday with cross-examination of FBI Special Agent Jeffrey Baker by federal prosecutors.
  • The case stems from an April incident involving Eduardo Flores Ruiz and a warrant signed April 17, 2025; Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan faces felony obstruction and misdemeanor concealment charges.
  • Customs and Border Protection Supervisory Officer Joseph Zuraw testified that Dugan told an agent to `get out` and motioned toward Chief Judge Carl Ashley's chambers while five of the arrest team's six members were nearby.
  • Prosecutors told jurors they will show Dugan knew the stakes when she directed an immigrant to a private door, and the government's case is expected to run through Thursday while U.S. District Judge Lynn Adelman denied dismissal; obstruction carries a maximum sentence of five years.
  • The incident highlights a clash between the judiciary and the Trump administration as the events thrust 66-year-old Judge Hannah Dugan into conflict over immigration enforcement.
