In a recent court ruling in Los Angeles, actor Danny Masterson, known for his role in "That '70s Show," has been sentenced to 30 years to life in prison. The judgment comes after he was found guilty of raping two women nearly two decades ago. Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Charlaine F. Olmedo handed down…

The actor, who has been in custody since May, appeared in court wearing a suit and watched without any visible reaction as the two women spoke out against him. The other woman, who was also a victim, stated that Masterson “has not shown an ounce of remorse for the pain he caused” and emphasized that she wished she had reported him to the police sooner for the safety of other women he might have encountered.

The judge sentenced Masterson after rejecting a defense motion for a new trial. The defense had requested concurrent sentences for the two convictions and suggested a sentence of 15 years to life, while the prosecution sought the full 30 years to life sentence that Masterson was eligible for.
