Later in 2004 Milne and teammate Leigh Montagna were the at the centre of a police investigation of the alleged rape of a woman. No charges were laid; however, in June 2010 a former detective who was the lead detective in the case made claims that the case collapsed under internal pressure from within the Victorian police force and powerful club backers as well as another detective alleging the cost of the case was a factor. In 2012 the Office of Police Integrity concluded after a lengthy investigation that “the OPI investigators found no evidence to substantiate the allegation that police investigating the rape were subject to improper influence” On 18 June 2013 it was reported that Milne had been charged with four counts of rape over the 2004 incident.

In 2004, allegations of rape were made against Milne. The incident is alleged to have taken place on 14 March 2004 at teammate Leigh Montagna’s home after celebrations for St Kilda’s family day. It was alleged that a 19-year-old woman was raped in a bedroom of Montagna’s home just after midnight.

Milne finished the 2012 season with 56 goals from 22 games, and was selected in the 2012 All-Australian team, earning this recognition for the second time in his career.

At the end of the 2018 season, Milne retired from football at the age of 38.

On 18 June 2013, Milne was charged with four counts of rape over the 2004 incident. The decision to charge Milne followed extensive review of the initial investigation. On 5 July 2013, in a hearing at the Melbourne Magistrates’ Court, Milne was not required to enter a plea and was bailed to return to the court on 13 September 2013.

On 13 September 2013, a committal hearing was set for at least three days, starting 12 November 2013.

On 15 November 2013, he was committed to stand trial on three counts of rape. Magistrate Peter Reardon found there was enough evidence to send the matter to the County Court for trial.

2014

On 14 November 2014, Milne avoided a conviction for indecently assaulting a 19-year-old woman more than a decade ago. Milne pleaded guilty earlier this month to a single charge of indecent assault, over an incident at the home of former St Kilda teammate Leigh Montagna in March 2004. The 34-year-old had been facing a trial in the Victorian County Court on three charges of rape, but those charges were withdrawn earlier this month. At his plea hearing, the court heard Milne and another woman, and Montagna and the victim, had consensual sex in separate rooms, before Milne and the other woman went to Montagna’s room. The two couples then engaged in more “sexual activity” before Milne attempted to have sex with the victim. The court heard the woman could not see in the darkness and believed Milne was Montagna. Judge Michael Bourke found Milne’s offending was “out of character” and ordered him to pay a fine of $15,000.
