US EditionFederal grand jury indicts a Wisconsin judge in immigration case, allowing charges against her to continue
- On Tuesday, a federal grand jury charged Milwaukee Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan for allegedly assisting an undocumented individual in evading immigration officers at the courthouse last month.
- The indictment follows Dugan's arrest on April 25, which prosecutors say stemmed from her escorting Eduardo Flores-Ruiz, a deported immigrant, out of a courtroom to avoid ICE agents.
- Dugan allegedly confronted immigration agents, falsely claiming they needed a judicial warrant, and directed them away from the arrest site while advising the suspect to use a back door and appear by Zoom later.
- The two-page indictment charges Dugan with concealing an individual and obstructing a federal agency, carrying penalties of up to six years in prison and $350,000 in fines.
- The Wisconsin Supreme Court suspended Dugan from her duties on April 29 to uphold public confidence, while her legal team vowed to vigorously defend her, and the next hearing is scheduled for May 15.
