Jury Selection in the Federal Trial of Milwaukee Judge Hannah Dugan to Begin Thursday
Judge Hannah Dugan faces federal obstruction charges after allegedly aiding an undocumented immigrant to evade ICE; prosecutors plan to call up to 28 witnesses, officials said.
- On Thursday, jury selection begins at the Milwaukee federal courthouse for Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Hannah Dugan's federal trial and could continue into Friday.
- Prosecutors say the April encounter stems from Hannah Dugan escorting Eduardo Flores-Ruiz out a back door while federal agents were in the courthouse, leading to her arrest and May indictment.
- The government says it will rely on surveillance video from the courthouse hallway, and prosecutors plan to call 28 witnesses, taking about four days.
- The Wisconsin Supreme Court suspended Dugan after her arrest, and a coalition of protesters and advocates plans rallies starting Dec. 15 while Dugan will attend a vigil on Dec. 11.
- Judge Lynn Adelman denied the immunity motion, and pretrial vetting has struck 34 prospective jurors, leaving about 90 potential jurors remaining after questionnaires probing political activity.
