LOS ANGELES (AP) - That 70s Show actor Danny Masterson was charged with the rapes of three women in the early 2000s, Los Angeles prosecutors said Wednesday, the culmination of a three-year investigation that resulted in a rare arrest of a famous Hollywood figure in the #MeToo era.
The three counts of rape by force or fear against Masterson were filed Tuesday, and an arrest warrant isssued. Masterson, 44, was arrested late Wednesday morning, jail records showed. He was released a few hours later after posting bond and is scheduled to be arraigned Sept. 18.

IMO That 70s Show was brilliantly cast. No relation to the thread other than casting of the television show. I watched some episodes but didn't understand how 'Donna' in the series had a younger sister in the earliest episodes but then they never mentioned her again.

Actually the accuser first filed in 2004. The LAPD has been tree sloth slow on this case.

I know they can be forced to clean the houses of Scientology celebrities, so anything is possible.

Early 2000s? What? Almost 20 years ago? And what was he? A struggling actor?

I used to work with Danny's uncle. He always used to brag about Danny.
Well, he's not bragging about him anymore.

I wonder if that’s why they killed him “Rooster” off during “The Ranch” (Netflix series with Ashton Kutcher, Sam Elliot, and Debra Winger - even had “Fez” and Lou Diamond Phillips for a few episodes).

Glanced at a usenet/rec.arts.tv article on it, congratulating the DA's office on the expeditiousness between the alleged crimes and the filing of criminal charges...
To: 11th_VA
Alleged crimes are 20yrs old.
Supposed victims can’t accurately specify month and year of occurrences.
Bizarre.

My bet: the “victims” were likely willing and eager participants originally, saw dollar signs given the current climate, asked him for handouts, got rejected, and now are trying to destroy him for it.

He is famous for That 70s Show, which began in 1998.... so the early 2000s means that he was already a celebrity, and the sex could easily have been consensual (if not begged for by the “victims”).

One woman brought her charges to the DAs office in 2004. Ah... that may change things a bit...
