Former Wisconsin judge to be sentenced for obstructing arrest of Mexican immigrant

Former Wisconsin judge Hannah Dugan was spared from prison after being convicted of felony obstruction. Dugan helped a Mexican defendant evade U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents by ushering the undocumented immigrant out of a side door in her Milwaukee courtroom. Following her December conviction and resignation amid impeachment threats from Republican lawmakers, a federal judge sentenced her to a $5,000 fine, citing her otherwise law-abiding life as a reason to avoid incarceration.
