The FBI arrested a Wisconsin judge on obstruction charges after she allegedly helped an illegal migrant avoid arrest, FBI Director Kash Patel said Friday.

The bureau had been investigating Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan for trying to help an illegal alien avoid arrest when that person was scheduled to appear in her courtroom last week, sources told the Journal Sentinel.

"Just NOW, the FBI arrested Judge Hannah Dugan out of Milwaukee, Wisconsin on charges of obstruction — after evidence of Judge Dugan obstructing an immigration arrest operation last week," Patel wrote Friday in a since-deleted post on X. "We believe Judge Dugan intentionally misdirected federal agents away from the subject to be arrested in her courthouse, Eduardo Flores Ruiz, allowing the subject — an illegal alien — to evade arrest.

"Thankfully our agents chased down the perp on foot and he's been in custody since, but the Judge's obstruction created increased danger to the public. We will have more to share soon. Excellent work @FBIMilwaukee."

Dugan appeared briefly in federal court in Milwaukee on Friday before being released from custody. Her next court appearance is May 15.

"Judge Dugan wholeheartedly regrets and protests her arrest. It was not made in the interest of public safety," her attorney, Craig Mastantuono, said during the hearing.

Chief Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Carl Ashley emailed judges to say Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents came to the Milwaukee County Courthouse on April 18 with an arrest warrant, the Journal Sentinel reported.

Sources told the newspaper that Dugan directed the ICE agents to Ashley's office, and then allowed the defendant to leave the courtroom through a side door, down a private hallway and into a public area.

The incident was at least the third time in recent months federal immigration agents came to the Milwaukee courthouse to make arrests. Two people were arrested by ICE officials in the hallways of the courthouse, one each in March and early April, the Journal Sentinel reported.

On Thursday, a recently resigned New Mexico judge and his wife were arrested in a federal raid on their family home after it was revealed they harbored an accused member of Tren de Aragua, KOAT reported.

Homeland Security Investigations arrested three Venezuelan nationals during a raid on former judge Joel Cano's property in late-February.

According to court documents, the men had been living in a small guest house on Cano's property.

Fmr Rep. Santos Sentenced to Over 7 Years in Prison for Fraud, Identity Theft

https://www.newsmax.com/us/congress-fraud-crime/2025/04/25/id/1208338/

Ousted former U.S. Rep. George Santos, who lied about his life story and defrauded donors, was sentenced Friday to over seven years in prison, sobbing as he heard his punishment.

The New York Republican, who served in Congress for barely a year before his House colleagues removed him in 2023, pleaded guilty last summer to federal wire fraud and aggravated identity theft.

He admitted to deceiving donors and stealing the identities of nearly a dozen people, including his family members, to fund his winning campaign. As part of a plea deal, Santos has agreed to pay roughly $580,000 in penalties in addition to prison time.

The 36-year-old didn't respond to reporters' shouted questions as he walked into a Long Island courthouse, but he told The Associated Press on Thursday that he's resigned to his fate.

"I'm doing as well as any human being would be doing given the circumstances," Santos wrote in a text message on Thursday, adding that he was "ready to face the music."

Prosecutors are seeking seven years in federal prison for Santos, arguing in recent court filings that he "remains unrepentant" and has not shown genuine remorse despite what he claims.

They cite recent comments Santos has made on social media in which he casts himself as a victim of prosecutorial overreach.

In a letter to the court this week, Santos stressed that he remains "profoundly sorry" for his crimes but said prosecutors' proposed sentence is too harsh.

Santos' lawyers have called for a two-year prison stint, which is the mandatory minimum sentence for aggravated identity theft.

They argue such a penalty is comparable to sentences handed to former U.S. Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. and other political figures convicted of similar financial crimes.

Santos was elected in 2022, flipping a wealthy district representing parts of Queens and Long Island for the GOP.

Soon after, it was revealed that the political unknown had fabricated much of his life story, painting himself as a successful business owner who worked at prestigious Wall Street firms and held a valuable real estate portfolio.

In reality, Santos was struggling financially and even faced eviction. The revelations led to congressional and criminal inquiries into how he had funded his campaign.

As his sentencing approached, Santos was reflective in social media posts, thanking his supporters and detractors alike.

"I learned that no matter left, right or center, we are all humans, and, for the most part, Americans (LOL), and we have one superpower that I cherish, and that is compassion," he wrote Thursday on the social platform X. "To the trolls … well you guys are an impactful part of how people shape themselves, and y'all made me much stronger and made my skin thicker!"

He also made one final plug for his Cameo account, where he records personalized video messages for $100.

"Think ahead and of any celebration or event coming up later this year. Book them today," Santos wrote, ending the post with a series of heart emojis.

You'll need to go public with that one.

Some media outlet so we all know to stop.
