AFL .. truly a culture to despise
Prosecutors have urged a jail term for former AFL player Fabian Francis.
The former Port Adelaide and Melbourne footballer
has been found guilty of eight domestic violence offences, including aggravated assault and aggravated threatening harm.
The Adelaide District Court heard Francis subjected former partner Debra Buckskin to a decade of physical and emotional abuse, sometimes beating and kicking her in front of her children.
In her victim impact statement, Ms Buckskin said the abuse crushed her spirit.
Her son told the court no child should have to listen to his mother scream for help and be too frightened to leave his room.
Prosecutor Mark Norman said Francis should get an immediate jail term because of the grotesque nature of the offences and his complete lack of remorse.
Francis will be sentenced next month.
