(13,926 posts)No one as of yet has seen the arresting documents...this information was Tweeted by the insurrectionist Patel....
ICE came in to arrest this person, very questionable if any probable cause for ICE arrest.... She said the Judge ....directed ICE in another direction...this individual was there for legal needs/ lawful reason and Judge prompted them and she directed them to move along in another direction..... We are .not even sure a Federal Judge even signed off on this warrant of Judge arrest .....
This is pure intimidation!
Elizabeth said there are several steps that may not happened...such as arraignment, preliminary hearing, bail being set....
Good video to help us stay on task with this!

(1,680 posts)Of what the judge allegedly did to try to help the defendant in her court escape capture, or of what charges the person was in court for.
I remember that during the 1st Dump administration, there was a Massachusetts judge who the right accused of allowing an immigrant to exit out of a side door of the courtroom to avoid the ICE agents who were waiting for them at the front door. But, that judge wasn't arrested or charged with anything.
If ICE detains the Wisconsin judge for more than the minimum time needed to make bail it's bullshit. She should get to defend herself against the charges before a Milwaukee jury, which will likely acquit her. And, possibly she could sue for unlawful arrest.

And he erased his twitter X entry announcing that arrest of a judge.
He's such a creepy little sneak.

(1,456 posts)So the issue in question involves Eduardo Flores-Luiz. On April 18th, he was supposed to be at a pre-trial hearing over battery domestic abuse, so forth. A poster on another thread put the affidavit up. Basically, ICE came in to the courtroom with an administrative warrant. Now I'm not an attorney, as I understand it, it is not the same as a judicial warrant. In the former, you can't enter private spaces or places where it is privacy is expected without consent, such as a courtroom. In other words, you can't enter a place without permission.
Now allegedly, the judge got upset because Ruiz was on the docket for a pre-trial hearing, the victims' families were there, so I assume that has not had his pre-trial hearing, at least not based on the affidavit I read. The allegations are that she told them to talk to the chief judge, and according to the accusations, she and his attorney had him leave out of the jury room, where he supposedly was trying to escape, they did get him, and basically ICE/FBI is upset that she disrupted their warrant.
Now here are some big questions. First, If Flores-Luiz was in the process of doing a pre-trail hearning, why do it then? No one told the judge over that. The courtroom opened at 8:15 am. As far as I know, I do not believe the court was told beforehand. Second, was he arrested before the hearing? If he wasn't, then that falls on the local/state police. It seems hard for me to believe that somebody who is facing serious allegations wasn't arrested, unless he posted bail. If he did, and it was agreed he would be arrested after the hearing, okay, that might be different, but based on how I understand it, it sounds like he didn't. Even so, ICE did not have the right to enter a place without consent. Why didn't they tell the chief judge or whoever that they were coming? How was the judge supposed to know if it was unexpected? Again, an administrative warrant doesn't mean the same as a judicial warrant.
