‘He’s spent nearly 300 days behind bars’ - Enoch Burke back in court | Newstalk

  • Enoch Burke will once again appear before the courts today - but members of his family have been barred from attending.
    The former schoolteacher has spent nearly 300 days behind bars in total for refusing to abide by a court order restraining him from entering the grounds of his former school.
    Today he will be given his third opportunity to purge his contempt of court by agreeing to stay away from the school.
    If he does so, he will walk free, if he refuses, the court has the power to order his continued detention at Mountjoy Prison.
    On The Pat Kenny Show this morning, Newstalk Courts Correspondent Frank Greaney said the ball is “very much in Enoch Burke’s hands’ when it comes to his time in prison.
    “It always has been in relation to these contempt proceedings,” he said.
    “He doesn’t even have to go so far as to apologise to the court. All he has to do is give the school and the court an undertaking that he will abide by the court order and refrain from attending at Wilson’s Hospital School.
    “If he was to do that, he would be released immediately and if he was to follow through with that commitment there would be no issues.”
    Burke Family
    Frank said Enoch’s family has been barred from attending today’s hearing.
    He said Mr Justice Mark Sanfey last week gave several family members an opportunity to give an undertaking that they would not disrupt the court proceedings.
    When they refused to do so, he directed that they be excluded.
    “He had no objection to them attending in person; he just wanted a commitment that there would be no disruption or interruptions as we have seen - and I have been witness to many of these occasions where the Burkes have crossed over the judge as he is delivering a judgement.
    “Unsurprisingly all of the Burkes objected to their exclusion.”
    He said the Burkes claimed that they had not been given proper notice of the decision to exclude, although the judge said they were notified well in advance.
    The Burkes also claimed that it is unconstitutional to deny them access to the courtroom.
    Enoch Burke also questioned his treatment by the courts when he appeared via videolink last week.
    “He claimed that he had been dragged from his cell at Mountjoy,” said Frank.
    “He said he was given no advance warning of the application to exclude some of his family.
    “He said he felt totally unprepared, he accused the judge of being a liar and again he claimed that he was being punished for his religious beliefs.”
    Frank said Judge Sanfey has been at pains to point out that his beliefs have nothing to do with his contempt of court - and today’s hearing is solely about whether Enoch is willing to agree to stay away from the school.
    Enoch spent over 100 days in prison in his first stint before being released.
    He then returned to Wilson’s Hospital School after the summer holidays and on September 8th he was once again imprisoned for breaching the court order.
    “He has spent almost 300 days now behind bars in Mountjoy Prison and as I said earlier, he could walk out the door today or any day if he simply gave that undertaking to stay away from Wilsons Hospital School,” said Frank.
    The hearing is due to take place today.

      @@RedOakCrow I think you're missing the point though. What the Burkes seem to have done - rather effectively at this point I would say, given the amount of misinformed people I see commenting on here - is change the narrative of the situation so that it's _morals vs woke left ideology_ rather than what it _actually_ is - a far less tabloid and drama-filled headline of _man disobeys court order_ - that's what he's _actually_ in jail for.
      You can _disagree_ with the order of a court, but if you _disobey_ it, there are consequences to that, as he has been finding out for the last 300 days.
      Most rational people not fuelled by religious dogma would have obeyed the order and brought the employers to court on unfair dismissal grounds - after whatever process was in place to appeal it had been exhausted and the outcome was not to his satisfaction. But he's decided to go another way completely which, technically, you _can_ do, but most people don't because it doesn't really make a lot of sense. Unless you like being in jail. Or unless you like the idea of being a "martyr", which I'm guessing fits the profile of most of that family from what I've seen.

      The judges and guards acted appropriately - they don't make the laws and they don't take it a-la-carte for the ones they enforce. Can you imagine if they started making up the rules as they went along? The same people who are castigating them for doing their jobs are the same ones who'd be calling for their heads because the were "loose cannons", "out of control" and a "law unto themselves".
      As for the "shame" you seem to be throwing around anywhere you think it will stick, why don't you save some of it for the Burke family themselves? Any hearing or proceeding they start baying like ferral donkeys. The constant need for attention, the persecution complex and the religious zealotry point to some kind of mental disorder in my opinion. Whatever your views might be on the transgender thing, to act in such a persistently uncivilized and undignified way at every possible opportunity does not exactly help people to accept your point of view.
      He disobeyed a court order and that's why he is where he is. You have the right to disagree with it, but you don't have the right to disobey it - _the exact same as everyone else_

    Enoch Burke must have his own cell to be able to stay in prison so long, most prisoners are in a cell with two other prisoners with one onvthe floor in most prisons in Ireland due to overcrowding.
    This is due to longer sentences and more things being made crimes and immigration without the Government having made provision for this.
    Also because the useless opposition Sinn Fein haven't fought for the rights of Irish people.

His point has been well made and perhaps his continuing imprisonment is now pointless. He is probably very fond his school and would love to return but I dont think can happen so he should quit and move on.
