Enoch Burke, a teacher suspended from Wilson's Hospital School, is experiencing severe financial repercussions due to unpaid fines related to contempt of court for refusing to adopt transgender pronouns in addressing a student. His bank account has been frozen, hindering access to over €40,000 in personal savings. Burke expressed indignation over the Church's lack of support during his legal troubles and emphasized the unprecedented nature of the State's actions against his finances. He faces ongoing pressure to comply with court orders that challenge his beliefs regarding gender identity.
Enoch Burke's salary, which he earns as a teacher at Wilson's Hospital School, has also been stopped.
The silence of the Church on this matter is a disgrace, he added.
Mr Burke has been suspended as a teacher from Wilson's Hospital School since 2022, after publicly clashing with its then principal.
An order of garnishee - effectively freezing funds in Mr Burke's bank account so fines totalling €79,100 can be deducted from it.
