A judge has declared a mistrial in the rape trial of That ’70s Show” actor Danny Masterson after jurors said they were hopelessly deadlocked. He was charged with three rapes.

But at the Masterson trial, as at the Haggis trial, #MeToo implications were largely eclipsed by the specter of Scientology, despite the judge’s insistence that the church not become a de facto defendant.

“There is zero truth to any of the testimony that the church has harassed or stalked the Jane Does,” Pouw said. “The key to this case is not when they reported it,” Cohen said during closing arguments. “It’s what they said when they reported it. What they said after they reported it. And what they said at trial.”Two women said they were served drinks by Masterson and became woozy or passed out before being violently raped. One said she thought she would die as Masterson held a pillow over her face.An ex-girlfriend said she awoke to finding Masterson having sex with her without her consent.

“Church of Scientology played a supporting role.” Means… He probably did it

Scientologist, stuff just seems to happen with them . There are many reasons to seek out God. Many paths to a single door. The moral character of a person is his own. not by the color of your skin but by the character of the person.

A tragic but not unforeseen outcome of a rape trial.

Hmm

Like 20 something less than deshaunwatson so I guess that’s a win

So 3 rapes = Mistrial, got it!

That 90s Show looks awful

He must identify as a feminist!

If you think scientology didn't play a role in this, you're very naive. They display awful, hateful tactics and actions that are absolutely consistent with a full on cult.

Mistrial leaves the possibility of another trial. Lets see what happens next.

Scientology at work people. They have Billions of tax free dollars and infinite lawyers. They been doing this for decades.

sad that this cult is allowed to operate with such impunity

Hollyweird really looks out for their own

Scientology don't fuck around

Did he do it?
