Danny Masterson, known for his role in “That 70’s Show,” has been transferred to North Kern State Prison in Delano, CA, after being found guilty of two counts of forcible rape. The disturbing mug shot of Masterson has also been released.
Custody Battle and Divorce Proceedings
Masterson has recently given up custody of his 9-year-old daughter, Fianna Francis Masterson, to his ex-wife Bijou Phillips, who filed for divorce just one month after the sentencing. Masterson is now seeking visitation rights with his daughter, which would take place at the prison.
The decision to divorce came as a shock as Phillips had initially supported Masterson throughout the trial. However, she has stated that her priority now is her daughter.
The Reason behind Masterson’s Imprisonment
For those who may not be familiar with the case, Masterson was accused of raping three women between 2001 and 2003. The first trial ended in a mistrial, but in the second trial, Masterson was found guilty of two counts of forcible rape. He has been sentenced to 30 years in prison.
Protecting Their Daughter and Assets
There have been speculations that the divorce between Masterson and Phillips is an attempt to protect their daughter and any assets that may be affected by potential civil cases against Masterson in the future. While neither party has confirmed this, it is a possibility.
