Danny Masterson has been sentenced to 30 years to life in prison after being convicted on two counts of forcible rape during his sexual assault retrial. The judge stated that Masterson's actions took away another person's choice and voice, and he is now facing the consequences for his criminal behavior. Masterson was found guilty on two counts of rape in his second trial. The Los Angeles County District Attorney expressed gratitude to the three women who bravely came forward and shared their experiences.
Masterson had denied the allegations, and his case resulted in a mistrial before his retrial began. Masterson's wife, Bijou Phillips, stood by his side throughout the proceedings. Masterson was also written off of Netflix's The Ranch amid the scandal. Some of Masterson's accusers filed a lawsuit against the Church of Scientology, of which he is a member, claiming the organization obstructed justice.
The church denies these allegations.
