Milwaukee County Judge Hannah Dugan Indicted by Federal Grand Jury for Immigration Obstruction
A federal grand jury has indicted Wisconsin Judge Hannah Dugan on charges of helping an immigrant evade arrest by immigration authorities. The indictment follows accusations that Dugan obstructed agents from the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) during their operations. This case, which has sparked significant debate regarding the role of judges in immigration matters and their relationship with federal law enforcement, raises concerns about judicial independence and the potential for intimidation within the judicial system. Several former judges have condemned the actions taken by the Trump administration in this context, highlighting the broader implications for the judiciary.
