Judge Who Allegedly Helped An Illegal Immigrant Escape is 'Heroic'

“On the issue of immigration, there are a lot of people who are appalled by what the administration is doing. And there will be times for civil disobedience….Let’s say she [Wisconsin Judge Hannah Dugan] did escort this guy out the door. If federal enforcement agencies come to your courtroom and you help a guy escape, that is two things. One, it strikes me as maybe something illegal, but it also strikes me as something heroic.”
