This is a horrible feeling as a survivor, to realize you were chosen for your relative weakness, that your attacker knew people would be less likely to care about what happens to you or believe what you have to say.

Imagine how it feels as a child, or as an adult coming to terms with how their childish trust and weakness were exploited.

Over the years that I have posted here I have often been called a misandrist for my jaded views. But as a former prosecutor who handled far too many sexual assault cases both adult and child victims, I have good reason for my feelings. There are so many monsters out there, walking around with the masks of grandfathers, fathers, uncles brothers sons and friends. Teacher troop leader coach clergy neighbor. Everybody wants to think the monster is in somebody else’s closet or under somebody else’s bad, but the monster is just as likely in your house, no matter how much you refuse to see. And that’s how monsters thrive.

This continues because people turn the other way. I told my mother my stepfather was sexually abusing me she ignored me and didn't care. How do you ever recover from that? Anyway you are right someone is supporting these monsters to continue and it needs to stop. You are either for or against rapist, sexual abuse, looks like Ashton and his wife are for it. Matterson's wife Bijou Phillips also supports it. This is unacceptable.

Doesn’t Kutcher do some anti-human trafficking work? Makes one wonder what he is really up to.

+100 same it's shocking after hearing the details of him raping 5 women. How is anyone ok with this. People have been cancelled for a lot less in hollywood, but everyone seems to be ok with this??? I don't get it!

I was reading about Jane Doe 1 describing her attack and when she was begging Masterson to stop and trying to fight her off he held a gun to her head and told her to “shut the F up”. This testimony was out and know and these people wrote these letters anyway. Ashton Kutcher is still posting on Instagram like nothing has happened. Doesn’t he even have daughters?! WTAF?! none of this is ok. What happened to the victims, and what these supporters are doing for Masterson.

I read Phillips letter and she’s completely removed from reality. She says he’s such a good father because he takes their daughter to ballet and started a second career as a sommelier. I can’t even with these people. There aren’t even words.

One of the victims had claimed that both her dogs were fed rat poison and killed in 2020

I think it is also important to note that although the court case is taking place a couple decades later, in the 2 cases in which he was found guilty, both victims told more than one person almost immediately or shortly after it happened. One of the victims went to police in 2004. Scientology was a big factor in him having twenty years of freedom before going to prison. Both women have been telling the same stories for more than 20 years. This is not a case of victims coming out of the woodwork - they reported it to those around them (including to the Scientology church) almost immediately.

She has $$$. She'll be fine.

She’s also a massive a-hole and always has been. She’s exactly the sort of person who would be married to Danny Masterson. She mocked his victims. I don’t feel sorry for her at all.

+100 she mocked all of them as soon as the allegations came out. She stands by her rapist. Something is wrong here.

Five woen made accusations. Prosecutors felt there was sufficient evidence to change him in 3 of the 5 cases. He was found guilty on 2 of the 5 cases.

I don't believe there was any evidence outside of victim testimony. However the victim testimoney was supported by expert witnesses and the reports of tampering (by the Scientology church) to keep the victims from reporting was used as further evidence.

This is very important to note there were FIVE WOMEN coming forward saying they were raped, only 3 women were part of this, 1 didn't have enough evidence and 1 the statue of limitations ended (that's nuts!) FIVE WOMEN don't lie the fact ASHTON and his WIFE FULLY SUPPORT him is crazy to me, they should BE CANCELLED.

Scientology harassed the women and poisoned their pets!!! Why isn't anyone talking about how messed up this is as well?

Ashton and Kunis absolutely should be cancelled. Disgusting.

100% correct! I think the fact that Ashton asked the judge to be lenient on sentencing because of his character assessment OVER the victim impact statements is DISCUSTING him and his wife are nuts AND he sits there and testifies in front of congress about sex trafficking? GET OUT OF HERE.

He is KNOWINGLY supporting a rapist one day then testifying in front of congress the next. Something is NOT right with him at all.

Pretty much the entire cast of That 70s show wrote letters in support, except Topher Grace (he was exiled by the group) and Laura Prepon (she left Scientology a few years ago). Oh, and Wilmer Valderrama who had a lot of underage sex allegations lodged against him.

People are surmising that Ashton is being blackmailed.

+1 The entire Ribisi family who also wrote letters are all also Scientologists.

Case in point: creepy Danny goaded Ashton to kiss 14 year-old Mila open mouth without warning or consent on set

I am a survivor of both molestation as a child and being raped by a person known to me.

I grew up to be a domestic violence advocate, then later a prosecutor.

During my years prosecuting, a decade or more before the #metoo movement, I had to have on multiple occasions very difficult conversations with rape victims about whether or not to pursue charges in their cases. I always left it up to the victims. I always disclosed that I was a survivor of sexual assault myself, and that if they chose to pursue the case I would champion them to the best of my abilities and with all the passion and dedication I could bring to bear.

But I was also totally honest with them about the abysmally low conviction rates in sexual assault cases, about the unconscious and conscious biases jurors bring into the box which make them doubt the credibility of sexual assault victims, about the vicious ways defense attorneys play on those biases in cross examination of victims, about how no matter how hard the system tries to get it right (and it isn’t always trying), a rape trial is nearly always a re-victimization process.

In every case I had where the rapist was a well liked and supported member of the community the victims ultimately decided not to go forward. It was heartbreaking but entirely understandable.

There is some catharsis for victims who prosecute and get a conviction, but of the 1% of rape cases that ever even go to trial, less than half will result in conviction and there is a lot of pain in the process. We are still operating under antiquated thinking which is why there is so much sexual assault of women and children and so many rapists walking among us, wearing their nice guy masks. Fooling actually nice people into believing they aren’t the monsters they are.
