with her sentencing date set for June 3. She was
found guilty of felony obstruction of federal
immigration agents, which was the consequence
of her illegal actions in the matter. Dugan was
acquitted, though, of a misdemeanor charge of
concealing a criminal.
Dugan resigned her position from the bench on
January 3, 2026, following mounting impeachment
efforts, and in order to not forfeit her pension.
Now a felon, her conviction carries a maximum
five-year prison sentence along with a $350,000
fine. However, federal guidelines for a for a
non-violent, first time offender generally result
in probation. Yet Dugan, as a felon, can never
again serve as a judge on any court.
The Peasant in the meantime found out that the
former judge and a friend of over fifty years
had unfriended me on Facebook; she likely
had read my previous posts regarding her
legal difficulties, and even though I tried not
to be too harsh on her Dugan decided to end
our longtime friendship altogether. All I have
left to say in parting with ex-Judge Dugan is
wayward friend, go in peace.
Such is justice. Such is consequence. Such is life.
