No evidence. Alleged incidences were 20 years ago. The "victims" were allowed to testify anonymously. The accusers want money and they'll get it. This is justice in america now!!

may 31 2023 After a seven-day deliberation, a jury at Los Angeles Superior Court reached a verdict on Danny Masterson's retrial on Wednesday
Danny Masterson's rape retrial has left the actor facing a maximum sentence of 30 years to life in state prison.
On Wednesday, the 47-year-old actor was convicted of two rape charges stemming from a 2020 charge of forcibly raping three women in separate incidents between 2001 and 2003. While Masterson has been out of jail on a $3.3 million dollar bail, the That '
70s Show alum was handcuffed and immediately sent to jail after the verdict, where he will reportedly remain in custody until the next hearing on Aug. 4.
Masterson was charged with three counts of rape by force or fear stemming from separate incidents between 2001 and 2003. According to NBC News, the three women were members of the Church of Scientology — which Masterson is reportedly also a member
of. They have been identified as Jane Doe #1, Jane Doe #2, and Jane Doe #3.

ROFL!
Any time the accused is "rich and/or famous" these days
you've GOTTA wonder ...
The Scientologists have a very weird rep too so there's
a bias towards believing ANYTHING bad said about them.
The plus here is that the jury deliberated a whole week
rather than issue an instant verdict. That raises hopes
that they were actually weighing the case rather than
indulging some knee-jerk anti-Scientologist reaction.
Masterson appears to be some nasty little dick with
a star complex. Scientology also kinda teaches its
people how to be better sociopaths ........
