Milwaukee Ex-Judge Avoids Prison in ICE Obstruction Case
TL;DR
Former Milwaukee County Circuit Court judge Hannah Dugan was fined $5,000 and received no prison time after being convicted of obstructing a federal proceeding for helping an immigrant evade ICE agents in 2025; a federal judge cited her decades of public service, noting the act was a brief lapse that did not prevent the arrest, while Dugan has lost her job and faces a felony conviction as part of the broader fallout.
