The Wisconsin Supreme Court stated that the suspension aims to maintain public confidence in the judicial system during Dugan&#8217;s criminal proceedings. Attorney General Pam Bondi condemned Dugan&#8217;s actions, highlighting the seriousness of obstructing a criminal case, notably one involving domestic violence.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>The Wisconsin Supreme Court suspended Milwaukee County Judge Hannah Dugan Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>The judge is accused of helping an illegal immigrant evade capture by Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers.<\/p>\n<p>Dugan is being&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/d3i6fh83elv35t.cloudfront.net\/static\/2025\/04\/complaintuscourtswied11162910.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">charged&nbsp;<\/a>with two federal felony counts: obstruction and concealing an individual.
