A long-serving judge in Wisconsin has been taken into custody for allegedly assisting a Mexican national in the U.S. illegally to elude federal immigration officers inside her courtroom, the FBI chief said on Friday.
Judge Hannah Dugan, who has presided in Milwaukee County courts for close to ten years, faces an obstruction charge for allegedly preventing the arrest of Eduardo Flores Ruiz during an incident last week.
“We believe Judge Dugan intentionally misdirected federal agents away from the subject to be arrested in her courthouse, Eduardo Flores Ruiz, allowing the subject — an illegal alien — to evade arrest,” FBI Director Kash Patel said in an X post.
