A video depicts Milwaukee Judge Hannah Dugan purportedly assisting illegal immigrant Eduardo Flores-Ruiz in evading federal arrest following a court hearing on April 18. Prosecutors allege that she diverted the attention of agents and permitted him to leave through a restricted exit. He was subsequently apprehended outside.
Dugan has been charged with obstructing justice and has subsequently been suspended. She has entered a plea of not guilty, claiming judicial immunity. Flores-Ruiz, who has been deported before, is now facing both federal and state charges.
