Milwaukee Judge Dugan Claims She Was Following Orders in Helping Illegal Alien Flee Feds
The New American ^ | November 18, 2025 | R. Cort Kirkwood

County Circuit Court Judge Hannah Dugan, the far-left Democratic judge who helped an illegal alien escape her courtroom in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, has come up with a not-so-novel defense: I was just following orders.

Dugan claims that she was following a policy set down by the court’s chief judge on April 18, when she told Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents trying to arrest Mexican illegal Eduardo Flores-Ruiz to see the chief judge before doing so.

Given that the video shows Dugan hustling Flores-Ruiz out of the courtroom through a jury-room door, the defense might not work. But even if it does, it doesn’t much matter.

ICE has deported Florez-Ruiz, a violent goon.

Foiled Escape

Video of the action in the courthouse clearly shows Dugan helping Flores-Ruiz, a violent criminal, depart the scene. That forced FBI, Drug Enforcement Administration, and immigration agents, who went to the courthouse to pick him up, to track him down. 

When Dugan learned about the impending arrest, she “became visibly angry, commented that the situation was ‘absurd,’ left the bench, and entered chambers,” the FBI’s criminal complaint alleges. “At the time, Flores-Ruiz was seated in the gallery of the courtroom.”

Dugan angrily confronted an ICE agent, whom she ordered out of the court. When the agent said he was there to make a lawful arrest on an administration warrant, Dugan told him he needed a “judicial warrant” and must see the circuit court’s chief judge.

But Dugan didn’t stop there. Instead, she aided and abetted Flores-Ruiz’s attempted escape.

Dugan told Flores-Ruiz and his attorney to “come with me,” and “then escorted Flores-Ruiz and his counsel out of the courtroom through the ‘jury door,’ which leads to a nonpublic area of the courthouse,” the criminal....

Is “I was just following orders” a valid excuse?

Before the end of World War II, the London Charter of the International Military Tribunal (IMT) was issued, explicitly stating that following an unlawful order is not a valid defense (against charges of war crimes).

Amazing dems are all concerned abt the Epstein victims. Yet none of them have said who harmed them BUT THEY do NOT care abt the mutilation of kids today OR those DETRANSITIONING from being mutilated. But dems we have to protect our children but REFUSE to allow Trump to deport illegals who traffic kids today. Protect kids TODAY.

Orders from whom, Fearless Leader at Central Control? Brought to her at her bench by Boris and Natasha? Nobody doubts the corrupt judges are being directed, but without names, it didn’t happen.

Sorry honey. That defense didn't work for Nazi war criminals. Adolf Eichmann claimed he was just following orders too, that he disliked his job, and wanted out to join the Wehrmacht. But if he really wanted out, why did he do such an excellent job of scheduling as many trains as possible to ship people to the death camps? He even visited the concentration camps he sent people to. He'd have conniption fits if somebody screwed up his train schedules. In the end, he eventually made his way to Argentina from Austria, through the Rome and Red Cross ratlines that other Nazis were using.

This Judge is part of the illegal alien ratline of 2025.
