A federal grand jury on Tuesday indicted Milwaukee County judge Hannah Dugan for obstructing an ICE arrest last month.
Last month Judge Hannah Dugan was charged with two felonies, however, the charges in the grand jury indictment were not immediately clear.
The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported:
A federal grand jury indicted Milwaukee County Judge Hannah Dugan on May 13 after a daylong hearing on charges that she tried to assist an undocumented immigrant escape arrest from her courtroom last month.
Dugan, 66, was previously charged with obstructing a U.S. agency and concealing an individual to prevent an arrest. The two charges carry a maximum penalty of six years in prison and a $350,000 fine, but sentences in cases involving nonviolent offenses typically are much shorter.)
It wasn’t immediately clear what charges were contained in the grand jury indictment.
Dugan is expected to enter a plea at a May 15 hearing.
The indictment came after a string of witnesses entered the federal courthouse throughout the day on May 13 to testify before the grand jury.
Last month Milwaukee County judge Hannah Dugan was arrested by the FBI for obstructing an ICE arrest.
According to the FBI, Judge Hannah Dugan obstructed an immigration arrest operation last month. Dugan became angry when she found out that ICE agents were waiting outside of her courtroom last week to arrest Eduardo Flores-Ruiz, an illegal alien involved in a domestic abuse case she was overseeing. She allegedly directed Flores-Ruiz to exit the courthouse through a private jury door to evade arrest.
FBI Director Kash Patel said Judge Dugan “intentionally misdirected federal agents away from the subject to be arrested at her courthouse.”
US Attorney General Pam Bondi said Judge Dugan screamed at immigration officers last week before helping the illegal alien evade arrest.
“The judge learned that ICE was outside … She goes out in the hallway, screams at the immigration officers — she’s furious, visibly shaking, upset — sends them off to talk to the chief judge. She comes back in the courtroom … takes the defendant and the defense attorney back in her chambers, takes them out a private exit and tells them to leave,” Bondi said on Fox News last month.
Judge Dugan did not speak to reporters as she climbed into a vehicle waiting for her after her hearing last month.
