Newly released video evidence shows Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan actively helping illegal alien Eduardo Flores-Ruiz, charged with domestic violence, evading arrest by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents at her courthouse

The footage of the April 18 incident, obtained through an open records request by WISN 12 News, ABC's local affiliate in Wisconsin, has led to Dugan’s indictment on federal obstruction charges.

In the video, Dugan, dressed in her black judicial robes, confronts plainclothed ICE agents in a courthouse hallway.

She directs them to speak with the chief judge, a move prosecutors say was a deliberate distraction.

Meanwhile, Flores-Ruiz, a 30-year-old Mexican national, and his attorney exit through a restricted jury door typically reserved for jurors.

One ICE agent spots Flores-Ruiz and follows him into an elevator and out of the courthouse.

The footage captures Flores-Ruiz sprinting north for nearly a block before ICE agents apprehend him.

Flores-Ruiz faces three misdemeanor counts of battery and domestic abuse in Milwaukee County Court, with a status conference scheduled for June 18.

He is also in federal custody on immigration charges for illegally re-entering the U.S. after his 2013 deportation.

He pleaded not guilty to these charges and is due in federal court for a pretrial conference on June 24.

The activist judge played hide-and-seek with federal agents to shield an illegal alien with a rap sheet, only to land herself in the dock.

Dugan was arrested a week after the incident and indicted on May 13 by a federal grand jury on two violations of U.S. Code: obstructing a federal proceeding and concealing an individual to prevent arrest.

If convicted, she faces up to six years in prison and $350,000 in fines.

She pleaded not guilty on May 15 and is out on bond.

Her attorneys have filed a motion to dismiss, claiming judicial immunity for actions taken in her role as judge since 2016.

The motion argues the prosecution is unconstitutional and violates federalism principles.

Dugan’s pretrial hearing is set for July 9, with a jury trial scheduled for July 21 before U.S. District Judge Lynn Adelman, a Clinton appointee with a history of controversial liberal commentary.

The case has drawn scrutiny, particularly due to Adelman’s selection.

Legal scholar Jonathan Turley, George Washington Law School Professor, has criticized Adelman for biased statements, including calling Chief Justice John Roberts a "dishonest partisan hack" and accusing conservative Supreme Court justices of undermining democracy.

Turley also warns of Adelman’s past reversal in a voter ID case for ignoring precedent, raising concerns about his impartiality in this high-profile case.

With a trial judge who’s no stranger to polarizing rhetoric, raising questions about whether justice will be served or if the case will devolve into another ideological circus.
