Comedian Facing Case Brought by Antisemitism Charity over 'Messages He Sent to Woman'
- Comedian Reginald D Hunter faces a private prosecution by the Campaign Against Antisemitism over alleged offensive posts sent to Heidi Bachram last year.
- The case arises from three alleged offensive messages, including a computer-generated sexual image sent on 24 August and antisemitic posts in early September 2024.
- Hunter was scheduled to attend a hearing at Westminster Magistrates' Court in July, but a warrant was issued for his arrest after he failed to appear; shortly afterward, he was set to begin a tour across the UK.
- The charges describe the image as "grossly offensive," and Hunter tweeted messages such as "I don't hate you for being an agent of evil," directed at Bachram.
- The prosecution highlights the CAA's intent to enforce zero tolerance on antisemitism and may influence Hunter's legal and touring activities going forward.
