Former Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Hannah Dugan is sentenced to a $5,000 fine and avoids jail time after being found guilty of obstructing federal agents during a case involving an ICE arrest. Multiple outlets report that a jury convicted Dugan for her actions at a court hearing last year, when she attempted to help an individual evade U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials. The Washington Times, New York Post, and Daily Caller all describe Dugan as having tried to interfere with an ICE arrest process within her courtroom. At sentencing on Wednesday, Dugan receives a $5,000 fine, and the court does not impose a prison term. The sources characterize the outcome as a “slap on the wrist,” but they agree on the essential facts: Dugan is a former Wisconsin judge, she is convicted by a jury of obstruction connected to her attempt to prevent or delay an ICE action during a hearing, and the final sentence is limited to a monetary penalty with no jail time.
