'Absolutely disgraceful' Enoch Burke returned to jail amid chaotic scenes in High Court
"A judge has described the behaviour of Enoch Burke, his mother Martina and sister Ammi as "absolutely disgraceful" after a High Court hearing descended into chaos when the jailed anti-transgender schoolteacher refused to stop interrupting a barrister for Wilson's Hospital School."
"Mr Justice Brian Cregan suspended the hearing this morning after just ten minutes amid a cacophony of shouting from Mr Burke and members of his family and directed the teacher be immediately returned to Mountjoy Prison."
Enoch Burke repeatedly interrupted a barrister representing Wilson's Hospital School during a High Court hearing, causing chaos. His mother Martina and sister Ammi joined in shouting, leading to widespread disruption. Mr Justice Brian Cregan suspended the hearing after about ten minutes because of the disturbance. The judge described the family's conduct as "absolutely disgraceful". The judge ordered that Burke be immediately returned to Mountjoy Prison. Burke is a jailed anti-transgender schoolteacher. The interruptions prevented the hearing from proceeding and prompted swift judicial action to remove Burke from the courtroom and restore order.
