I was unaware that Danny Masterson is a Scientologist. I grew up in a different very secretive international cult in which there was a lot of child abuse (including sexual abuse). All matters were resolved within the community, and it was against the rules to take internal matters to the police. Some situations did end up in court but only because ex members and relatives of members initiated the process. I have seen how almost impossible it can be to bring members of such secretive cults to justice, so it's not hard to believe that Scientology squashed the allegations and silenced the accusers.

This means something. It takes an awful lot to make cops give a shit.

That being said, there are multiple allegations against Masterson. It's not just an isolated "he said she said" situation. Once you've got more women accusing you than Homer Simpson has fingers on his right hand, it's hard to believe that they're all lying.
