The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) is currently investigating sexual assault allegations against actor Danny Masterson, known for his role in "That '70s Show." The allegations, which date back to the early 2000s, have been vehemently denied by Masterson. Journalist Tony Ortega, who has extensively covered the Church of Scientology, claims that the Church covered up the allegations. The LAPD did not comment on the Church's involvement.

According to a statement from the LAPD obtained by Variety, three women have come forward and disclosed that they were sexually assaulted by Masterson during the early 2000s. Masterson's representative sent a statement to Variety denying the claims, suggesting that they may be motivated to boost Leah Remini's anti-Scientology television series. The alleged victim's name has been redacted from the statement.

Ortega reports that the women who accused Masterson were fellow members of Scientology and were pressured by the Church not to report their accusations to the police. No charges were filed against Masterson, but the victims came forward after reaching out to Remini as a result of her A&E Scientology documentary series.
