Your human+AI analysis is brilliant. Thank you for sharing.

Could the defense also argue that Judge Dugan acted without any subjective intent other than to protect her courtroom from being used as an aiding and abetting venue for the recently initiated unconstitutional and illegal detention and transportation of immigrants without due process?

NEW: Statement from attorney for Judge Dugan.

"Hannah C. Dugan has committed herself to the rule of law and the principles of due process for her entire career as a lawyer and a judge. Judge Dugan will defend herself vigorously, and looks forward to being exonerated."
