Wisconsin Judge Arrested for Allegedly Assisting Undocumented Immigrant

A Milwaukee County Circuit Judge, Hannah Dugan, has been arrested by federal authorities following allegations that she attempted to help an undocumented immigrant, Eduardo Flores-Ruiz, evade U.S. immigration enforcement. The incident occurred on Friday morning when U.S. Marshals took Dugan into custody. Reports indicate that on a previous court date, Dugan directed Flores-Ruiz, who was facing misdemeanor battery charges, and his attorney to a side exit, allowing him to escape. The judge’s actions have drawn significant attention amid ongoing discussions regarding immigration enforcement in the judicial system. As Flores-Ruiz later reappeared in court for a scheduled hearing, the involvement of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents has intensified scrutiny of the case. As developments unfold, further details are expected to emerge regarding the circumstances of Dugan’s arrest and the implications for judicial conduct in similar cases.
