Network of NGOs of TT for the Advancement of Women coordinator Jacqueline Burgess says whoever leaked sensitive information naming the accuser in the sexual assault matter against attorney Martin George should be “dealt with” to the full extent of the law.

George, 58, was arrested on July 8 and charged with grievous sexual assault and indecent assault against a junior attorney. He was out on $150,000 bail and made his first court appearance before Master Indira Chinebas in the High Court on July 9, with the matter adjourned to October 7.

Burgess said people in positions of trust should not send sensitive information to their friends or share it on social media because they felt it would be fun or salacious.
