The FBI is simply doing their job. They’re operating much more efficiently with Donald Trump as president.
And the FBI just arrested this radical judge for one reason that will blow your mind.
Wisconsin Judge Faces Federal Charges for Alleged Illegal Immigrant Protection
A Milwaukee judge finds herself at the center of a legal storm, accused of shielding an undocumented immigrant from federal authorities. The case, unfolding in Wisconsin, has sparked intense debate about judicial conduct and immigration enforcement.
Arrest and Allegations
On Friday morning, FBI agents arrested Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Hannah Dugan, charging her with obstruction of an official proceeding. Federal law enforcement sources report that Dugan allegedly hid an undocumented male in her jury room to prevent his arrest by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, according to Fox News sources.
The incident reportedly occurred after the individual’s criminal court appearance on April 18, when ICE, FBI, Customs and Border Protection, and Drug Enforcement Administration agents attempted to apprehend him.
According to sources, Dugan directed the federal officers to the chief judge’s office, allowing the individual to exit the courtroom and leave the building undetected. Authorities believe this was a deliberate act to help the immigrant evade arrest.
Courthouse Confrontation
The events of April 18 unfolded swiftly. After Dugan allegedly sent federal agents to the chief judge’s office, the undocumented individual’s hearing concluded, and he left the courthouse before agents could act. This maneuver has led federal officials to accuse Dugan of intentionally obstructing their efforts.
Dugan is expected to make her initial appearance in Milwaukee’s federal court later on Friday, marking the next chapter in this high-profile case, according to Fox News.
Judge’s Defense and Local Reaction
Earlier this week, Dugan pushed back against local media reports accusing her of shielding the immigrant. In a statement to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel on Tuesday, she wrote, “Nearly every fact regarding the ‘tips’ in your email is inaccurate.” Despite attempts by Fox News Digital to reach her office on Wednesday and Thursday, Dugan has not provided further comment, with a staff member noting she was in court.
The allegations have drawn sharp criticism from local leaders. State Rep. Bob Donovan, a Republican, condemned Dugan’s actions, stating, “In all my years of Milwaukee politics and public safety issues, working with cops, district attorneys, and judges, I have never seen a more irresponsible act by an officer of the court, let alone a judge, if true.”
He added, “This borders on obstruction of justice and I hope the FBI continues a thorough investigation and, if warranted, prosecution to the fullest extent of the law.”
Context and Background
The incident follows recent ICE arrests of two individuals in the courthouse hallways, as reported by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. These events highlight ongoing tensions surrounding immigration enforcement in judicial settings.
Judge Dugan, elected to Branch 31 of the Milwaukee County Circuit Court in 2016 and running unopposed in 2022, primarily handles misdemeanor cases, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Her career includes work with legal aid organizations and a stint as executive director of Catholic Charities, reflecting a history of advocacy before her judicial tenure.
As the FBI continues its investigation, the case raises questions about the intersection of judicial authority and federal immigration policy.
