Fmr #Wisconsin #Judge Hannah Dugan was spared from prison Wednesday for ushering a Mexican defendant out of her courtroom to evade #ICE agents. A federal judge fined her $5k & cited her otherwise #law abiding life in issuing the sentence.
Dugan, 67, was convicted of felony obstruction in December. Her lawyers argued that the #Trump admin sought to “crush” Dugan in an effort to ensure #judicial compliance with the ICE strategy of targeting immigrants as they showed up for #court hearings. [yup]
