He was given a court order barring him from the campus. He continued to show up, prompting his jailing for contempt of court.

Burke has declined requests from the court to purge his contempt – in effect to promise to obey the barring order – and said he is being punished for his beliefs. “I am here today because I said I would not call a boy a girl,” he told the court last week. “Transgenderism is against my Christian belief.
