Man charged with assaulting mistress, fracturing stepdaughter’s nose

…wife warned by court to stop posting husband’s mistress on TikTok

Leroy Gordon of Russell Street, Charlestown appeared on Wednesday in the Georgetown Court of Principal Magistrate Faith McGusty to answer charges of assaulting Noelle King and injuring her 12-year-old daughter.
Unrepresented by legal counsel, the 50-year-old Gordon pleaded not guilty to the charges.

The prosecution detailed that, in an incident that occurred on February 23 at West Rumiveldt in Georgetown, Gordon struck King’s daughter and fractured her nose on the same day that he allegedly assaulted King.
The court was told that Gordon, who has 14 children, was in a relationship with King, but currently lives with his wife. He and King have parented a two-month-old baby, and the injured 12-year -old child is from another relationship King had.
King initially expressed a desire to drop the matter, citing as cause the child of whom Gordon is the father. But when Magistrate McGusty asked if she was certain about her decision, King hesitated before deciding to proceed with the matter.
Despite arguments from the prosecution that Gordon may tamper with the witness, the magistrate admitted Gordon to
$10,000 bail and placed him on a bond to keep the peace.
When the magistrate asked how Gordon would support the baby, he assured the court that he would provide financial assistance by “posting” money for the child.
Besides requesting that Gordon be made to cover her injured daughter’s medical bills, King accused Gordon of confiscating her electric bike, cellphone and television, and the magistrate ordered him to return those items by the next court date.
Moreover, King raised concerns about Gordon’s wife allegedly posting pictures and videos of her children on TikTok. Gordon’s wife was seated in the courtroom, and he pointed her out and said, “That is my wife”.
Further, King claimed she had reported the picture-posting issue [TikTok] at the Brickdam Police Station, but was told that no action could be taken unless there was a direct threat.
The magistrate thus warned Gordon’s wife against continuing that behaviour, and advised her that the cybercrime laws carry harsh fines of about $10 million.
Gordon told the court that he and King had purchased a two-bedroom house and he was willing to give her the property.
This case has been adjourned to March 5.
