Federal prosecutors have revealed new details about how Milwaukee County Judge Hannah Dugan allegedly helped an undocumented immigrant evade federal agents — including comments she made afterward saying she was “in the doghouse because I tried to help that guy.”

According to a Nov. 7 motion, prosecutors claim Dugan personally led defendant Eduardo Flores-Ruiz and his attorney through a restricted staff exit to avoid immigration agents waiting outside her courtroom. They allege Dugan told another person in court, “I’ll do it. I’ll get the heat.”

The filing also states that Milwaukee County Judge Kristela Cervera, who accompanied Dugan to question the agents, was “uncomfortable with Judge Dugan’s behavior and tone.” Prosecutors say Dugan instructed Cervera to keep her judicial robe on while confronting the agents — something rarely done outside the courtroom, according to Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

The new 24-page filing, part of a series of pretrial motions, seeks to limit what Dugan’s defense team can present at trial, which begins Dec. 15. Defense attorney Stephen Kravit called the government’s inclusion of new details “completely inappropriate,” describing it as “a jury grooming memo.”

Dugan’s attorneys renewed their motion to dismiss the case, arguing she acted within her judicial duties and is protected by judicial immunity. “Judge Dugan acted lawfully — doing acts that were part of her job,” the filing said.

Prosecutors have asked U.S. District Judge Lynn Adelman to restrict the defense from making arguments about immigration policy or political motivations behind the case. They also want to exclude statements Dugan made to Milwaukee police during an unrelated call, saying they were “self-serving.”

Dugan, 66, faces two charges — one felony and one misdemeanor — for allegedly obstructing federal agents. She has pleaded not guilty. If convicted, she could face up to six years in prison, though first-time nonviolent offenders often receive probation or reduced sentences. The Wisconsin Supreme Court has suspended her with pay; she earns nearly $175,000 annually. (RELATED: Wisconsin Republicans Introduce Bill to Make Grooming a Felony)
