Trump asks court to prosecute Wisconsin judge
The Trump administration is fighting to keep the case against Wisconsin Judge Hannah Dugan alive, arguing she should not be immune from prosecution for allegedly helping an undocumented immigrant evade arrest. The Justice Department stated dismissing the charges would be unprecedented, allowing judges to interfere with federal law enforcement. Dugan is accused of helping an undocumented man escape immigration agents in her courthouse and faces charges of obstruction and concealing an individual. Dugan's defense argues she was acting in her official capacity and is immune. A legal defense fund has raised over $137,000 to support her, highlighting the controversy surrounding the case and the broader immigration crackdown.
