DELANO, Calif. (AP) — “That ‘70s Show” actor Danny Masterson has been sent to a California state prison to serve his sentence for two rape convictions.
Authorities said Wednesday that the 47-year-old Masterson has been admitted to North Kern State Prison, and they released his first prison mug shot. The photo shows him wearing orange prison attire, with long hair and a beard.

I mean I personally feel most people like to think they’d immediately disown any friends that do stuff like this but I’d bet in reality a lot of people would do the same thing.
It’s a lot easier to pass judgment when you’re not emotionally involved. Same reason why people stay in abusive relationships. On the outside it’s cut and dry but sadly emotions are a thing.
I’m not defending Masterson nor am I saying Kutcher isn’t in the wrong by defending him. I’m just trying to bring to light that humans are emotional before they’re logical.
Hell no, the dude wrote a letter to a judge saying “I know he raped two women, but cmon dude be cool.” Fuck that guy, fuck his wife, and fuck everyone else who asked the judge for leniency.
Like I said I agree.
I just feel like a lot more people would resort to something like that if it was more personal.
Basically people are hypocrites and always say they’d do the right thing until they’re in that circumstance and then all of a sudden it’s not such an easy decision
Idunno. There’s a difference between not doing the right thing, and going out of your way to do the wrong thing. I can understand someone not wanting to provide evidence against their friend in court, but I cannot fathom writing a letter requesting leniency for my friend after I find out he raped two women. If he continued to question whether his friend actually committed those crimes, I could maybe understand it, but he acknowledged Masterson’s guilt. I would be too upset with him to do that, especially if I were involved with an organization that exists to bring an end to sexual violence.
And you’re going to say “that’s easy to say until you’re in that situation,” but it would also be easy to do if I were in that situation. I’ve dropped long-time friends for less. I would be a wholly different person if I were capable of requesting leniency for a rapist.
And hey good on you. I’m glad you have the resolve and self respect to push those people out of your life. I’m that type of person myself. I’ve just seen the opposite happen so many times that I’m surprised people are still surprised when it happens
“Dude, where’s my moral center?”
Yeah. He’s had to look at reams of CASM as part of this for some reason. He also opposed encryption. He does these things for the children so that may might… Get unmolested? I don’t know. He’s kind of fucked.
