Wisconsin Judge Monica Isham Threatens Not to Hold Court Over Hannah Dugan Arrest
27th April 2025
Wisconsin Circuit Judge Monica Isham is threatening to refuse to hold court because of the arrest of Milwaukee Judge Hannah Dugan.
“Guidance requested or I Refuse to Hold Court,” an email she sent after Dugan’s arrest to all Wisconsin state judges says. WRN exclusively obtained the email from a recipient on April 26.
“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?” Isham wrote.
She hasn’t threatened to hold her breath yet, but that may be on the agenda.
