Game of Thrones actor Joseph Gatt stands trial for child sexual offense charge

There were several crimes against humanity depicted in Game of Thrones. There were occasions when spectators were repulsed by the extremes some of the characters displayed, particularly when they acted inappropriately towards kids. Nobody will ever forget the forced kissing exchange between Littlefinger and young Sansa. Quite astonishingly, something similar involving a Game of Thrones actor has occurred in real life. Actor Joseph Gatt was detained for inappropriate communication with a minor. His case is under investigation currently.

Joseph Gatt appears before the court

Gatt appeared in court on Monday, October 2, and the Superior Court judge hearing over the case said that the case would proceed on December 4 after prosecutor Michael Fern stated that more information was required for it to forward.

After being detained in April 2022 on a felony warrant for “contact with a minor for a sexual offense” in Los Angeles, Gatt is now free on a $5,000 bond.

What role did Joseph Gatt play on Game of Thrones?

Gatt portrayed a member of the cannibalistic Thenn tribe in season 4, a clan that is well-known for its aggressive behavior. He possessed the capacity to warg with an owl, which is akin to mind-melding, which was useful for his job as a scout for Styr, the Magnar of Thenn. Gatt had an appearance in three episodes until his character arc on the program came to an end when he was shot in the head with a crossbow in season 4, episode 9, “The Watchers on the Wall.”
