Another Milwaukee judge is joining the rebellion after judge Hannah Dugan was arrested by the FBI for obstructing an ICE arrest last week.
The DOJ on Friday announced Judge Dugan was charged with “obstruction of proceedings before a department or agency of the United States, which carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison, and concealing a person to prevent arrest, which carries a maximum penalty of one year in prison.”
And now a rebellion is growing among other radical judges in Wisconsin.
As TGP reported earlier, in an act of defiance, Sawyer County, Wisconsin, judge Monica Isham said she has “no intention” of allowing any illegal aliens to be taken out of her courtroom, after another Wisconsin judge was arrested for obstructing an ICE operation.
Judge Isham has been on the bench for less than two years and boasts of being the “first woman, first Native American, first minority” to serve as a circuit court judge in Sawyer County.
“Enough is enough. I have no intention of allowing anyone to be taken out of my courtroom by ICE and sent to a concentration camp, especially without due process as BOTH of the constitutions we swore to support requires. Should I start raising bail money?” Wisconsin Circuit Judge Monica Isham wrote in an email obtained by Wisconsin Right Now.
“If there is no guidance for us and no support for us, I will refuse to hold court in Branch 2 in Sawyer County,” she said.
“We have a Judicial District 10 meeting on May 9th and I respectfully ask that we be given some guidance by then so we may discuss as a group in District 10,” the judge said.
In signing off, Judge Isham proudly said she is willing to lose her job or get arrested for doing ‘the right thing.’
“If this costs me my job or gets me arrested, then at least I know I did the right thing,” the judge wrote.

Milwaukee County Judge Ana Berrios-Schroeder responded to Judge Isham to let her know she supports her.
Judge Berrios-Schroeder thanked Judge Isham for being “brave” and floated “new courthouse policies” in their quest to shield illegals from ICE agents.
Wisconsin Right Now obtained the email from Judge Berrios-Schroeder to Judge Isham.
