Immigration Judge Arrested - (Copyright 2025 The Associated Press. All rights reserved)

A Wisconsin judge who was charged with illegally helping an immigrant evade federal agents is due back in court Wednesday for a final hearing before her case goes to trial next month.

Federal prosecutors charged Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan in April with obstruction and concealing an individual to prevent arrest. A grand jury indicted her on those same two counts in May. Her trial is set to begin Dec. 15, with jury selection scheduled for Dec. 11 and Dec. 12. She faces up to six years in prison if she's convicted on both counts.
