#EnochBurke has been released from prison, without purging his #ContemptOfCourt. https://archive.is/jE8VS
An #IEHC High Court order still bars Burke from trespass at #WilsonsHospital. The religious extremist #transphobe ex-teacher has still not committed to obey it.
Justice Cregan noted that Burke has exhausted all internal routes to appeal his dismissal, and is no longer paid by the DeptOfEducation. The release gives the #BurkeFamily a face-saving exit route. Will they take it?

Another day, another bout of ex-teacher #EnochBurke in court.
The serial liar, determined bully and religious extremist #transphobe is trying to claim that the #TeachingCouncil inquiry into his fitness to teach is "biased". This is the same complaint that Enoch has made about every court, board, panel, tribunal etc.
Proceedings in #IEHC resume on Friday 19th.

In July 2022, religious extremist teacher #EnochBurke was suspended for 'intimidating a colleague' and 'breaching student's confidence' at #WilsonsHospital School in #CountyWestmeath. Burke entered the school after his suspension, defied a #HighCourt #IEHC order to stay away, and was jailed. In January 2023, Enoch Burke was sacked.
This court report by Aodhan O'Faolain in the #IrishMirror https://archive.is/JLHy1 is a good account of the reasons for his suspension and dismissal.

Delusional religious extremist #EnochBurke is to stay in prison. #IrishTimes https://archive.is/QOtPO
Today, the fanatical #transphobe declined the opportunity to purge his #ContemptOfCourt, repeating his fantasy that he was not trespassing at #WilsonsHospital school, despite a court order to stay away. Burke appeared in the #HighCourt #IEHC by video link, so was unable to disrupt the court.
Burke has already spent a total of >650 days in prison. He will reappear in court in 4 weeks.

#EnochBurke's five millionth* court appearance is to object to being kept safe, in a smaller prison nearer his family. Wicked, says Enoch
But luckily, he can't disrupt the #HighCourt #IEHC any more. All his appearances are now on a video link, which gets cut if he kicks off. This also saves the cost of a van, driver, and escorting officer to bring Burke to and from the court.
https://www.rte.ie/news/2026/0312/1563080-enoch-burke-castlerea/
Note: the tally of five million is #sarcasm and #hyperbole, induced by the #BurkeFamily

3 of the #BurkeFamily now in prison. https://archive.is/SIeBx #IrishTimes
Jailed teacher #EnochBurke’s mother Martina and sister Ammi were in contempt of court by their behaviour during a hearing on 20th February. Both were imprisoned for 2 weeks.
Justice Brian Cregan called for an end to the Burke “family circus”. He intends to formally complain to the Law Society about solicitor Ammi Burke; and that Ammi, Martina & Isaac Burke may only attend future court hearings remotely.

SHORT THREAD: On Monday, extremist #transphobe #EnochBurke was returned to prison for continued #ContemptOfCourt, by #trespass at #WilsonsHospital school.
At the #HighCourt #IEHC, #MrJusticeCregan released his written judgment on Tuesday. #CreganJ was again blunt about Burke's "performative nonsense", "avalanche of lies", and legal self-harm.
CreganJ repeated that "Burke has the keys to his own prison"; and can be released if he promises not to trespass.

Of course, #EnochBurke didn't come to the #HighCourt #IEHC today. So #MrJusticeCregan issued a warrant for Burke's arrest, to bring him to court on Monday morning to explain himself. https://archive.ph/F1zL5
That will be ~ the 45th court hearing in the Burke saga. The courts are far too indulgent. Burke had his chance to explain himself to the court this morning. When he does appear, he will resume his "I was just going to work" lies.
#Enough. Burke should be imprisoned without further hearing.

Its Friday. Two days since #EnochBurke was released from prison, and Burke's second day back trespassing at #WilsonsHospital school, in breach of the court order.
Burke is due in the #HighCourt #IEHC at 2pm for #MrJusticeCregan to hear an application by the school to return him to prison.
https://www.rte.ie/news/ireland/2026/0116/1553419-enoch-burke/
I assume that Burke will not attend, and that the Gardai will then take the best part of a week to catch him. #sigh

#EnochBurke is due back in the #HighCourt #IEHC at 2pm on Friday 16th, for a hearing on the application by #WilsonsHospital that Burke should be returned to prison. The judge will be #JusticeBrianCregan, who jailed Burke in November, but released him on Wednesday.

#EnochBurke is back #trespassing at #WilsonsHospital, defying an injunction, as he told the #HighCourt #IEHC he would do.
#Garda did not arrest Burke because they did not have a warrant. The school now has to send its barrister to court. The warrant will be issued, then Gardai will spend days hunting Burke.
The #BurkeFamily is being allowed to mock the High Court. The court needs power to issue pre-emptive warrants, to allow immediate arrest.

By releasing #EnochBurke now & returning him to prison when Burke again trespasses at the school, #JusticeCregan hopes to undercut Burke's inevitable claims that he couldn't prepare his case in prisom.
But Burke is a #liar who will shout "unfair" whatever happens. The real issue is that Cregan doesn't trust his fellow #HighCourt #IEHC judges to accept Burke's unpurged contempt as his own choice to sabotage his preparation. 😞

FFS! 😡 in the #HighCourt #IEHC, the usually very sane #JusticeBrianCregan has released #EnochBurke from #Mountjoy. 👎
It's so that Burke has time to prepare for his case against the DAP. Cregan says that Burke will be promptly returned to prison if he trespasses on school property. But Burke says "If I am released from this court today, I will be at my workplace tomorrow". So why release him to restart the arrest cycle? 😡

Another day, another #BurkeFamily show in the #HighCourt #IEHC.
It's another appeal against an appeal, this time the procedure of the Disciplinary Appeals Panel (#DAP) review of Burke's dismissal from #WilsonsHospital school.
As usual the Burkes shouted down the judge, this time Ms Justice Emily Farrell. As usual, #JusticeFarrell didn't eject Burkes from the court, didn't halt proceedings, didn't jail them for contempt.😡
Courts are letting the Burkes take the piss. 😡

In the #HighCourt #IEHC, Mr Justice Brian Cregan has been getting tough with #EnochBurke and his #BurkeFamily of disruptors.
Cregan's firmness was much needed, but I was worried that it might be the start of a wider harshness from the judiciary. Sadly, that seems to be happening. 😞
The president of the High Court, Mr Justice David Barniville, tells Fiachra Gallagher of the #IrishTimes what's planned.

@christineburns The most interesting development in Ireland has been Mr Justice Brian Cregan's taking over of the High Court #IEHC case.
#CreganJ has adapted to the social media age, after explicitly identifying the case as a sustained atrack on the rule of law. He has taken a zero-tolerance to abuse of the court, and prevented the exploitation of the courts as a stage for theatrics.

"Any statements by Mr. Burke (or other members of his family) that he is being imprisoned because of his opposition to transgenderism are lies" — Cregan J in para 61 of [2025] IEHC 711, 9 Dec 2025. https://tinyurl.com/Cregan9Dec2025
The latest #HighCourt #IEHC judgment in the Enoch Burke case repeats the facts. #EnochBurke has the keys to his own prison. The #BurkeFamily campaign is a pile of #lies against #WilsonsHospital School and against the rule of law in Ireland.
