Two Judges Charged with Harboring Illegal Aliens in US

Two judges have recently been arrested and charged with illegally aiding undocumented immigrants, highlighting a growing controversy over judicial involvement in immigration cases. Judge Hannah Dugan of Milwaukee was arrested for allegedly obstructing an immigration arrest by misdirecting federal agents in her courthouse, enabling the suspect to initially evade capture. In a separate incident, Judge Cano of New Mexico resigned after federal authorities found a suspected gang member and undocumented immigrant living at his residence; both Cano and his wife were taken into custody following a federal raid. Law enforcement officials, including the FBI and the U.S. Attorney General, stressed that no one is above the law and credited their agents for upholding federal immigration enforcement. Critics argue these cases reflect a broader pattern among some officials of interfering with immigration law, fueling partisan debate over border security and judicial conduct. The incidents have intensified scrutiny on the intersection of immigration policy, law enforcement, and political allegiance.
