Former Rugby Captain Stuart Hogg Pleads Guilty to Domestic Abuse Charges
Stuart Hogg, former captain of the Scotland rugby team, has pleaded guilty to domestic abuse charges against his estranged wife, Gillian, at Selkirk Sheriff Court. Hogg admitted to aggressive behavior, including shouting and swearing, and engaged in alarming communication, tracking her movements through an app. The abusive conduct spanned five years and left Gillian in fear, culminating in her seeking help from domestic abuse services.
