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.

Don't worry Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher will bust you out

[–] mhague@lemmy.world 114 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (10 children)

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.

[–] MagicShel@programming.dev 101 points 10 months ago (10 children)

I think it's the personal connection that makes him find reasons to consider Danny's side of things more charitably. I sort of accept that he is just a dumb Hollywood guy with a soft spot for a friend. Except for one thing...

He's involved with fighting human trafficking which ought to give him a pretty clear perspective regarding sexual assault victims. That's what I can't reconcile.

[–] GladiusB@lemmy.world 22 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Maybe he just doesn't want to believe because he knew him for so long.

[–] MagicShel@programming.dev 15 points 10 months ago (1 children)

That's exactly the perspective I consider in the first paragraph and then dismiss in the second. I feel like you've just asked, "But why male models?" for the second time.

[–] bane_killgrind@lemmy.ml 10 points 10 months ago (1 children)

That last sentence is scorching and I hope the other dude gets his act together.

He's one of those kids who can't read good.

"Well damn, Jackie, I can't control the rapin'"

[–] ElBarto@sh.itjust.works 20 points 10 months ago

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.

[–] theneverfox@pawb.social 17 points 10 months ago

I really don't like how much hate they got for this

If someone you love does something horrible, the emotions don't just disappear. It's like grief, people have to work through it, and it happens in different ways.

For them, their long time friend has done something to (for them) hypothetical victims. They asked for leniency in a non-public way...

It's an extremely human thing to do. It doesn't live up to their ideals, but it doesn't invalidate everything they've done

[–] GrammatonCleric@lemmy.world 12 points 10 months ago

Well, what is Ashton hiding?

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

[–] ArtificialLink@lemy.lol 9 points 10 months ago (4 children)

Mugshot not in the article so where is it?

[–] WhyYesZoidberg@lemmy.world 15 points 10 months ago

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

99% of all websites need to go away

It's there, you have to swipe past the first picture up at the top.
