New York University law professor Ryan Goodman says he sees two big flaws in the federal charges against Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan for obstruction and concealing an individual from arrest.FBI Director Kash Patel said on X in a Friday morning post: “We believe Judge Dugan intentionally misdirected federal agents away from the subject to be arrested in her courthouse, Eduardo Flores-Ruiz, allowing the subject — an illegal alien — to evade arrest.”“Thankfully our agents chased down the perp on foot and he’s been in custody since, but the Judge’s obstruction created increased danger to the public,” Patel added before deleting the post (he eventually reposted it later on Friday).READ MORE: ‘Looks horrible’: Former Trump FBI chief says Kash Patel may have fumbled judge’s arrestAttorney General Pam Bondi immediately went on Fox News on Friday, calling Dugan and a second New Mexico judge who resigned after the arrest of an alleged gang member in his home, “deranged.”“I think some of these judges think they are beyond and above the law,” Bondi said. “And they are not.”During a segment with CNN host Erin Burnett, however, Goodman revealed flaws in the letter of Dugan’s indictment.“The affidavit itself said that at a certain point the court deputy tells two federal agents ‘you need to leave the courtroom’ and they agree to do that,” said Goodman, a former Special Counsel at the Department of Defense. “The entire thing is tainted … because they’re inside her courtroom. They’re not supposed to be there. That’s one piece of it.”READ MORE: ‘Disgusting’: Republicans panic after senator promises to impeach Trump after midtermsBut the second issue is the affidavit’s claim that Dugan acted to conceal Eduardo Flores-Ruiz when she sent him through the court’s jury exit and into the hall with agents.“The affidavit itself says what happens to the man when he goes through the jury door. Where does he end up? According to the affidavit he enters a public hallway. How do we know this, because two DEA agents observe him there. And then where does he go? Into the elevator. Who’s in the elevator with him? One of the agents,” argues Goodman. “It just doesn’t seem like a case that’s going to hold up, that you would charge somebody … for concealment. It seems like they were able to pick him up,” he added.Watch the video below, or by clicking here.READ MORE: The ‘beginning of the end’ of the GOP: Mike Johnson is headed for trouble
