Judge Hannah Dugan was arrested on Friday over allegedly helping an undocumented immigrant "evade arrest" the week prior, FBI Director Kash Patel said.

U.S. officials arrested a Wisconsin judge on Friday and charged her with helping a man in her court evade immigration authorities in an escalating dispute between President Donald Trump's administration and local officials over immigration enforcement.

The arrest marks a significant escalation in the Trump administration's crackdown on immigration, as well as in its battles with judges across the country.
