Federal Judge Affirms Conviction of Former Wisconsin Judge Hannah Dugan for Obstruction

  • A federal judge upheld the conviction of former Wisconsin judge Hannah Dugan for assisting an immigrant in evading ICE agents during a courtroom appearance.
  • Dugan's defense argued there was no 'pending proceeding' against the immigrant, but the judge ruled otherwise, citing the nature of the ICE operation.
  • Dugan faces up to five years in prison, but is likely to receive probation due to her lack of prior offenses.
