Actor Danny Masterson Found Guilty Of Raping 2 Women

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING A jury has found “That ’70s Show” actor Danny Masterson guilty of raping two women at his Hollywood Hills home in the early 2000s, according to The Associated Press. “I am experiencing a complex array of emotions — relief, exhaustion, strength, sadness — knowing that my abuser, Danny Masterson, will face accountability for his criminal behavior,” one of the women, known as Jane Doe 2, said in a statement provided to HuffPost by her attorneys, Boies Schiller Flexner. “I am disappointed that he was not convicted on all counts, but take great solace in the fact that he, the Church of Scientology, and others, will have to fully account for their abhorrent actions in civil court.” “I thank the jury for its service, and while I’m encouraged that Danny Masterson will face some criminal punishment, I am devastated that he has dodged criminal accountability for his heinous conduct against me,” said Jane Doe 3, on whose charge the jury deadlocked, in a statement also provided by Boies Schiller Flexner. “Despite my disappointment in this outcome, I remain determined to secure justice, including in civil court, where I, along with my co-plaintiffs, will shine a light on how Scientology and other conspirators enabled and sought to cover up Masterson’s monstrous behavior.” The judge ruled that more evidence related to Scientology could be heard in this second trial ― allowing former Scientology official Claire Headley to testify as an expert witness to push back on church denials about its policies and principles, which critics have described as controlling and abusive.
