In America, a judge was accused of aiding an illegal immigrant: the public supports him

The federal government has filed serious charges against Judge Hannah Dugan in Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, USA. Federal investigators accuse the judge of obstructing justice and aiding and abetting the escape of an illegal immigrant from custody.

According to official information, Milwaukee County Judge Hannah Dugan allowed Eduardo Flores-Ruiz, a Mexican citizen and illegal immigrant accused of domestic violence, to leave the courthouse. According to the prosecutor's office, the judge tried to protect the immigrant from being detained by immigration officers waiting in the hallway of the courthouse. The charges state that immigration officers attempted to arrest him without a warrant.

However, despite the judge's efforts, Eduardo Flores-Ruiz was unable to escape from law enforcement officers. Immigration agents chased him outside the courthouse and eventually arrested him on the street. This incident occurred on April 18.

The news of the arrest of the accused judge Hannah Dugan was made public on April 25. US Attorney General Pam Bondi commented on the incident, writing on social media that "No one is above the law."

During the trial, it was also reported that Dugan was formally charged and later released on bail. During the hearing, many protesters gathered outside the courthouse and demanded Dugan's immediate release, according to Reuters.

This incident caused great discontent and controversy among the US public. A number of American regional leaders and public figures openly supported Hannah Dugan. Human rights activists who consider the judge's actions justified also came to his defense, emphasizing that Dugan acted for humanitarian reasons.

This case has further intensified heated discussions about the country's migration policy and its implementation. In particular, the issue of the working methods of the judiciary and law enforcement agencies in the United States and their attitude to human rights has once again come into the spotlight.

National and international human rights organizations are closely following this case, noting that the results of the case against the judge may affect other similar cases in the country. Read 'Zamin' on Telegram!
