Judge Rules It's Not Too Late to Prosecute the Rape Allegations Against Danny Masterson
Latest

The case against Danny Masterson will move forward after a judge dismissed a motion filed by the defense, claiming that the rape allegations against Masterson exceeded the statute of limitations.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Eleanor Hunter ruled in favor of prosecutors who argued that since the case involves rape accusations, it falls under California’s “one strike” law, reserved for crimes that involve some form of sexual assault. These crimes are exempt from statutes of limitation, per a state law that former Gov. Jerry Brown signed into law in 2016, following the 60 women who accused Bill Cosby of sexual abuse going back 50 years.
