Milwaukee Judge Indicted in ICE Case: Double Standards Debate Erupts
Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Hannah Dugan was indicted on Tuesday for allegedly obstructing the arrest of an undocumented immigrant, Eduardo Flores-Ruiz, by guiding him out of her courtroom to evade ICE agents. The charges, concealing a person from arrest and obstruction of proceedings, carry a potential six-year prison sentence and $350,000 fine. Dugan’s lawyer asserts her innocence, while the indictment highlights escalating tensions between the White House and the judiciary over immigration enforcement. The Wisconsin Supreme Court has suspended Dugan pending the outcome of the case.
