Judge upholds Hannah Dugan conviction for aiding immigrant evade ICE authorities.
Now-former Milwaukee County Judge Hannah Dugan was convicted of felony obstruction of justice for concealing an undocumented immigrant in her courtroom. Now, there's a chance she may get a judgment of acquittal or a new trial. @allrisenews's Adam Klasfeld talks to former U.S. Attorney Harry Litman about the legal grounds for this.
The now-former Milwaukee County judge learned that a new precedent undermines a key legal instruction.

County Judge Convicted Of Obstruction For Helping Migrants Avoid An ICE Ambush
The real questions raised are a) whether we believe the “safety” of the agents making those dubious arrests matters more than the safety of our communities, and b) whether we want the courts to be able to regulate the conduct in their own courthouses as a check on the government’s exercise of raw power

A jury has found a Wisconsin judge guilty of obstruction for helping a Mexican immigrant dodge federal authorities. Jurors handed down the verdict against Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan on Thursday after deliberating for six hours. She faces up to five years in prison when sentenced. According to court filings, Dugan led Eduardo Flores-Ruiz out of her courtroom through a private back door on April 18 after learning agents were in the courthouse looking to arrest him for being in the country illegally. Federal prosecutors charged her days later with a felony count of obstruction and a misdemeanor count of concealing an individual to prevent arrest.
The case against #Milwaukee County #Judge #HannahDugan will move forward following a federal court ruling.
Dugan faces #criminal charges after prosecutors said she helped a man evade #immigration agents by leading him through a side door of her courtroom in April.
In May, a grand jury determined there was enough evidence to indict her on charges of obstructing or impeding a proceeding & concealing an individual to prevent his discovery & arrest.
