Former Glasgow Warriors star sentenced for domestic abuse...Full story:
Rufus McLean, 22, was given the community payback order at Edinburgh Sheriff Court on Thursday after he admitted abusing Cara Haston over a period of almost two years.Sheriff Matthew Auchincloss said McLean’s behaviour was “aggressive” and “controlling”.
McLean, of Gordon in Berwickshire, who earned three caps in his career, admitted the domestic abuse of Ms Haston between April 2019 and January 2021. At an earlier hearing, McLean admitted controlling Ms Haston’s movements and insisting she enabled location tracking services on her phone. “To be confronted by the knowledge that our daughter Cara has suffered serious abuse – under Section 1 of the Domestic Abuse Act – over such a prolonged period of time at the hands of the defendant is heart-breaking.
“In the case of Rufus McLean, it means serious abuse of a woman, verbally or otherwise, is totally unacceptable and deserves an appropriate response.” Mr Smith said there is no doubt McLean would be in the current Scotland squad had it not been for his conviction, and that the offences largely took place when he was still a teenager.After McLean admitted the offences, his club Glasgow Warriors terminated his contract with immediate effect.
