A judge has dismissed a claimed link between a former rugby league player’s concussion brain injury and his repeated bashing and choking attacks on a young woman.
Crown prosecutor Zachary Kaplan said as a tall and muscular man, Milne physically assaulted a much smaller woman multiple times in 2023, causing bruising to her eye, loss of consciousness, and perforated eardrums.Kaplan said Milne assaulted the woman so severely, she jumped out of a moving car and into a stranger’s vehicle to seek help.
“I did not want them to see the injuries on my face and body,” she said. “I felt a lot of shame and embarrassment.”The woman said she sincerely hoped Milne received genuine support “to protect himself and others”.Defence barrister Martin Longhurst said Milne had been affected by domestic violence during his childhood and had sought treatment for suspected chronic traumatic encephalopathy .
