Rep. Donovan Responds to Alleged Obstruction of Justice by Milwaukee County Judge

Madison – Representative Bob Donovan (R-Greenfield) gave the following statement after a report by radio host Dan O’Donnell stated that Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Hannah Dugan allegedly assisted an illegal immigrant in evading arrest from federal agents by harboring the individual in Judge Dugan’s jury room. This is now under investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) for apparent obstruction of justice. Rep. Donovan said:

“In all my years of Milwaukee politics and public safety issues, working with cops, district attorneys, and judges, I have never seen a more irresponsible act by an officer of the court, let alone a judge, if true. This borders on obstruction of justice and I hope the FBI continues a thorough investigation and, if warranted, prosecution to the fullest extent of the law.

Our laws are not suggestions; they must be upheld to maintain order in a functioning society. If Judge Dugan is insistent on aiding and abetting a criminal, she should be disbarred for violating her sworn oath to uphold the law.”

    Maybe Bob should have a talk with the Orange One and his administration about following the law.

    BTW, this incident is only alleged, and by someone I wouldn’t trust without verification and actual facts.

    Also, what law would have been broken by this action (asking seriously)?

    A competent judge knows the difference between an administrative warrant and a judicial warrant.
    Judge Dugan is a competent judge.
    Perhaps it would be wise for Mr. Donovan to re-check his “facts”
