An Olympic cyclist whose wife died after he hit her with a car during a fight has been criticised for a social media post describing a Porsche as a "weapon".
Last year, Rohan Dennis received a 17-month suspended sentence over a 2023 car incident which killed Melissa Hoskins - also an Olympic cyclist - outside the couple's Adelaide home.
A court found Dennis was not criminally responsible for his wife's death, but had disregarded her safety after he continued to drive while she clung onto the vehicle.
South Australia's Victims' Rights Commissioner described Dennis' post as "deeply offensive" and said it showed "a clear lack of insight into the real and lasting impact" of his offending.
"It also reflects a profound lack of respect for Melissa and her family, who continue to live with the consequences of that harm every day," Commissioner Sarah Quick said in a statement.
