Ex-DOJ Official Rossi: Dugan Left Victims Hanging to ‘Willfully’ Try to ‘Hide’ Suspect from Arrest, But I Wouldn’t Paper This

On Friday’s broadcast of “CNN NewsNight,” Gene Rossi, who worked at the U.S. Department of Justice from 1989 to 2016 and is an Adjunct Faculty member at George Mason University, said that Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan “adjourned the case without telling the prosecutor and without telling the victims. And, whether there’s probable cause or beyond a reasonable doubt could convict her, that, to me, shows that she was willfully trying to hide that defendant from being arrested. And that bothers me a lot.” But he wouldn’t have papered the case and he doesn’t think the case will make it to a jury or result in a conviction if it does.

Rossi said, “What you have here is a Judge who’s just incredibly angry that DEA agents, ICE agents, Custom[s] and Border Protection deportation officers are hovering around like bees for a man that they’re trying to arrest. It’s anger on steroids.”
