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.

It will be more than 25 years before Masterson will be eligible for parole.

Masterson’s lawyers said they plan to

nah, they just "plan to". It's easier to achieve something if you don't say what you are going to achieve.

To clarify, North Kern is an intake facility. He'll be there for a few weeks undergoing psych evals and other testing to determine which facility he will be sent to for permanent incarceration.

i've heard the racial stuff is really intense... so you either end up an Aryan Nation type, or you end up being bitched out by everyone else...
but, since he's rich and famous, he'll probably get special treatment and be able to buy protection (like Jared Fogle)
i've also heard that prisoners all hate rapists

We've known for months he's going to prison. This is just media porn.

[-] Jagger2097@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago

Seeing people actually punished for crimes like this should always be celebrated as many rapes go unreported

[-] Kit@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 10 months ago

This is the first I'm hearing of this - Yes I've been living under a rock. Can anyone give me a brief rundown of what he did? The article said it happened in the 2000s but didn't give specifics.

[-] Deceptichum@kbin.social 45 points 10 months ago

Danny Masterson is a rapist and Scientologist.

He’s going gaol because Scientology couldn’t protect him from the consequences his actions forever.

[-] Daxtron2@startrek.website 14 points 10 months ago

Interesting, I've never seen that form of the word jail actually used today. Where are you from if I may ask?

[-] Deceptichum@kbin.social 26 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Australia.

Jail's slowly edging out as the only spelling post-Americanisation, but I was taught gaol in the '90s so it's not super archaic here like it probably is in other Commonwealth countries.

At first I thought you were just trying to be an edgy teen or troll. This is interesting.

Yes, but what did he do?

Did he put shit in people's drinks like Cosby?

Did he rape a girl behind a dumpster like one of the Affluenza Kids?

Is he just a disgusting person like Justin Roiland?

Or is he a good guy like David Bowie, only his victims didn't think so this time?

[-] Staiden@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 10 months ago

He used his power and money to bill Cosby women.

Mugshot not in the article so where is it?

I think you’re supposed to keep clicking around to find it.
