BREAKING Danny Masterson found guilty of two counts of rape in Los Angeles-based retrial, jurors deadlock on 3rd count
Jurors in Danny Masterson's rape retrial began deliberations Wednesday morning in the case against the former "That '70s Show" star.Jurors in a Los Angeles courtroom found "That '70s Show" actor Danny Masterson guilty of two counts of rape on Wednesday.
Last Thursday afternoon, the downtown L.A. panel re-heard portions of testimony from one of the alleged victims, who was a former longtime girlfriend of Masterson. The seven-woman, five-man jury had previously asked to re-watch portions of a videotaped interview and to look at transcripts from that interview between the same woman and two Los Angeles Police Department detectives in January 2017.
Prosecutors confirmed in January that they wanted to retry the actor, and Superior Court Judge Charlaine Olmedo rejected a defense effort to have the charges dismissed.
