Immigrant who a judge allegedly helped avoid arrest gets time served, and will soon be deported

An immigrant who was arrested after a judge in Wisconsin allegedly helped him dodge federal agents has been sentenced to time served for illegally reentering the United States and will soon be deported, according to his attorney. 31-year-old Eduardo Flores-Ruiz has spent nearly seven months in jail since he was arrested outside the Milwaukee County Courthouse. He pleaded guilty in September to illegally reentering the country after he reached a deal with prosecutors to not fight deportation. Prosecutors in exchange agreed to recommend a time-served sentence. Flores-Ruiz is at the center of allegations that could send Milwaukee County Judge Hannah Dugan to prison. Prosecutors allege Dugan helped Flores-Ruiz evade immigration agents looking to apprehend him as he appeared for a hearing on unrelated state charges in her courtroom in April.
