Unfortunately, Cousin's case is not a single example of proceeding with criminal charges without sufficient evidence and making public details of allegations unsupported by legal evidence. In Queensland, Vincent Berg's and some other cases are not less alarming. It seems that the rule of law and respect to legal evidence and individual human rights such as presumption of innocence and privacy are in danger of being replaced by "witch hunt" practices.

I think what Ben Cousin did has disgraced and given the AFL and West Coast a bad name. I also think that Ben Cousins will not play football for West Coast again. I think Ben Cousins needs to worry more about getting healthy and staying healthy instead of playing football again.
