New video shows interaction between Milwaukee County Judge Dugan, federal agents

  • Milwaukee County Judge Hannah Dugan confronted ICE agents on April 18, 2025, as they sought to arrest Eduardo Flores-Ruiz outside her courtroom.
  • The confrontation stemmed from federal agents' effort to detain Flores-Ruiz, a Mexican national facing domestic abuse and immigration charges after an incident involving his roommates.
  • Prosecutors allege Dugan helped Flores-Ruiz evade arrest by diverting agents' attention and allowing him to leave through a restricted courthouse door, leading to her indictment on May 13 for obstruction and concealment.
  • Dugan has denied the accusations against her, which carry a potential prison sentence of up to six years, and her trial is set to begin on July 21. Meanwhile, Flores-Ruiz remains subject to ongoing federal and state legal proceedings.
  • The public release of courthouse video evidence is rare and may affect jury impartiality, prompting calls from Congress members for limits on immigration enforcement in state courts to protect judicial independence.
