The Wisconsin Supreme Court is suspending the judge accused of obstructing the arrest of an undocumented immigrant.
Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan was charged last week with obstructing a U.S. agency and concealing an individual to prevent an arrest. Federal authorities accuse her of helping Eduardo Flores-Ruiz evade arrest by federal immigration agents. The Supreme Court’s order puts Dugan on administrative leave while court proceedings play out. Officials say this isn’t a disciplinary action, but an administrative one.
