Federal Judge Delays Sentencing in Wisconsin Immigration Case to Consider Overturning Conviction
A federal judge in Milwaukee has postponed the sentencing of former Wisconsin Judge Hannah Dugan, who was convicted of felony obstruction for aiding an immigrant in evading federal officers. The delay is to allow for arguments on whether to overturn the conviction. Dugan's attorney, Steven Biskupic, argues that the conviction should be overturned due to a recent federal appeals court decision in Virginia, which invalidated a similar case. The case against Dugan was initiated during President Trump's administration as part of a broader immigration crackdown. Dugan, who resigned from her position following her conviction, faces up to five years in prison, although federal guidelines suggest probation is more likely.
