The federal trial of Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan begins today, as prosecutors allege she helped an illegal alien escape arrest by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) earlier this year.
Dugan is charged with obstruction of federal proceedings and concealing a person from arrest over her alleged actions involving Eduardo Flores-Ruiz.
Flores-Ruiz is an illegal alien who has since pled guilty to re-entering the U.S. and no contest to one count of battery.
According to court filings cited by Reuters, Dugan became “visibly angry” when she learned that ICE agents were waiting outside her courtroom to arrest Flores-Ruiz.
