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.
Don’t worry Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher will bust you out
Aston Kutcher, a celebrity famous for his philanthropy, says a man guilty of two rapes should have his charity taken into account.
In other words: A man with excess money, and who gives some of that excess to charity, says a person’s charity should balance out that person’s crimes.
“Well damn, Jackie, I can’t control the rapin’”

I mean I personally feel most people like to think they’d immediately disown any friends that do stuff like this but I’d bet in reality a lot of people would do the same thing.
It’s a lot easier to pass judgment when you’re not emotionally involved. Same reason why people stay in abusive relationships. On the outside it’s cut and dry but sadly emotions are a thing.
I’m not defending Masterson nor am I saying Kutcher isn’t in the wrong by defending him. I’m just trying to bring to light that humans are emotional before they’re logical.
Hell no, the dude wrote a letter to a judge saying “I know he raped two women, but cmon dude be cool.” Fuck that guy, fuck his wife, and fuck everyone else who asked the judge for leniency.
Like I said I agree.
I just feel like a lot more people would resort to something like that if it was more personal.
Basically people are hypocrites and always say they’d do the right thing until they’re in that circumstance and then all of a sudden it’s not such an easy decision
Idunno. There’s a difference between not doing the right thing, and going out of your way to do the wrong thing. I can understand someone not wanting to provide evidence against their friend in court, but I cannot fathom writing a letter requesting leniency for my friend after I find out he raped two women. If he continued to question whether his friend actually committed those crimes, I could maybe understand it, but he acknowledged Masterson’s guilt. I would be too upset with him to do that, especially if I were involved with an organization that exists to bring an end to sexual violence.
And you’re going to say “that’s easy to say until you’re in that situation,” but it would also be easy to do if I were in that situation. I’ve dropped long-time friends for less. I would be a wholly different person if I were capable of requesting leniency for a rapist.
And hey good on you. I’m glad you have the resolve and self respect to push those people out of your life. I’m that type of person myself. I’ve just seen the opposite happen so many times that I’m surprised people are still surprised when it happens
“Dude, where’s my moral center?”
Yeah. He’s had to look at reams of CASM as part of this for some reason. He also opposed encryption. He does these things for the children so that may might… Get unmolested? I don’t know. He’s kind of fucked.
If using a charity is something Ashton thinks you can use as a get out of jail free card, then what fucking shit does he do, he’s been helping with that anti sex trafficking thing, that’s a big ol get out of jail free card in Ashton’s mind.
Well, what is Ashton hiding?
A person’s deeds are always relevant to sentencing.
If it was relevant to guilt, that would be obviously problematic. If it’s relevant to 25 years instead of 30, that’s fine.
Makes me think of a dark night in 2001…. 🤔
He was a suspect in a murder. His girlfriend was murdered, he saw a red pool in the window and somehow thought it was wine and went home.
Are those two on a speedrun to be the most unbearable couple?
he’s fucked, Prison sucks, but California Prison system really, really sucks
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 rapistsi’ve also heard that prisoners all hate rapists
Such noble creatures these prisoners are…
not noble… but they tend to hate certain types of criminals more than others…
We’ve known for months he’s going to prison. This is just media porn.
Seeing people actually punished for crimes like this should always be celebrated as many rapes go unreported
I nearly read “North Kern” as North Korean
Talk about a dramatic way to put him in a place nobody knows who he is
“But… but… Ashton!”
“Ashton did this, Ashton did that!”
Keep it classy at the lunchroom table, bitches.
He’s lucky we live in a civil society.
I’d have voted to chemically castrate anyone convicted of rape and then put him in gen pop.
You’re basically admitting you’re a shit person
And you’re basically valuing the quality of life of rapists over that if their victims.
Unless you intend to rape somebody, what personal stake do you have in what form of punishment is appropriate for such a vile act?
You (deliberately, it seems) have missed the point.
Is the person you replied to worse than the hypothetical rapist in their argument?
I don’t see your point. So yeah, missing it big time.
I’m admitting I’d support worse treatment for people who rape than what we do currently.
If that makes me a shit person. I’m ok with that.
