Eduardo Flores-Ruiz, an undocumented immigrant, was deported by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) after being helped by Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Hannah Dugan to evade arrest at a courthouse. Dugan faces federal charges for obstructing DHS proceedings and concealing Flores-Ruiz from immigration authorities while he was in her courtroom. He was later charged with unlawful reentry into the U.S. and has a violent criminal history. Dugan has pleaded not guilty, with her trial set for December 15, and she has been suspended by the Wisconsin Supreme Court.
