The initial story made it sound like she helped him sneak out and evade through private access. That's not what was shown. That hallway and exit were public access. The judge had no detention orders for this person so she had no obligation to detain him or prevent him from leaving.
He wasn't running or even hurrying to flee in the hall. He and his lawyer were both walking very calmly. They even road the elevator down with agents without any issue. The running didn't start until he had exited the courthouse and the agents verbally identified themselves to detain him.
Here’s some of the stuff she did:
- disposed of his case on that day’s docket without involving the prosecutor
- disposed of his case on that day’s docket without informing the witnesses/alleged victim(s), nor giving them guidance on case status
- told the guy to leave her courtroom through a private jury entrance/exit
This is VERY unusual. In the case of the first two, it’s being a bad judge. I doubt she’ll practice again. The last one was clearly done to help him evade arrest. There’s literally no other reason she would have him exit that door. In 15 years of practicing law I never saw a judge tell a defendant to use that door.

Your post is incorrect. The defendant ushered the illegal immigrant and his lawyer into a private jury area not open to the public. They exited the jury area into a courthouse hallway.
Where the law enforcement folks were standing around and they could have apprehended him in the hall or in the elevator, but for some reason, chose not to, and then decided to get charges pressed against the judge.
The judge ushered a criminal illegal alien into a private jury area to evade arrest by ICE. That is the crime. The judge didn’t know there were other task force members in different parts of the courthouse.
How and where the arrest was effected is immaterial to the case against the judge,
FAFO

She let him fo out by a side entrance to the same hal the ICE agents were waiting in. She did not try to obstruct the arresr. She told the agents she disn't want them to make an areest directly outside of her courtroom. She thought it might upset other defendants.

How often do you see ICE renove defendants in a courtroom (or plaintiffs) before a court proceeding? Before this year, that is.
