Sen. Ron Johnson is squarely on the side of President Donald Trump in wanting to see a Milwaukee County judge put in prison for the way she handled efforts by federal immigration officers to disrupt her court.
Long before any kind of a trial is held to weigh the evidence, Johnson told WISN-TV he thinks Judge Hannah Dugan should be convicted and given the maximum prison sentence to “set an example.”
Dugan was indicted by a grand jury after sending an undocumented man out a different exit of her courtroom, having expressed to ICE officers her unhappiness that they had gathered outside her court to arrest a defendant in one of her cases.
The man was followed by officers down the hall and arrested outside after a brief foot chase.
Her legal team — and nearly 140 retired judges — are pushing to have the case dismissed, citing immunity for acts taken as an official, the same claim made by Trump in his felony cases last year.
Johnson said that defense is “outrageous” and accuses Dugan of obstructing justice.
