Masterson has been interned at Corcoran State Prison in Central California and will be eligible for parole in 2042 – when he’s 66 years old
Danny Masterson has been moved to Corcoran State Prison in Central California, where infamous cult leader Charles Manson spent years of his life.
The former That ‘70s Show star, 47, was sentenced to 30 years to life in prison after he was found guilty of raping two women over two decades ago.
Just last week, Masterson was denied bail pending appeal over fears the convicted rapist has “every incentive to flee”.
The Wrap first reported that, according to state records, Masterson has officially been moved to Corcoran after spending time in an LA County lockup and later the North Kern State Prison intake facility.
Records show that the actor will be eligible for parole in 2042 – when he’s 66 years old.
Blogger Jeffrey Augustine reports that Masterson will be housed in the prison’s Level 4 maximum security housing unit – the highest level of security available.
Likely maximum security for being rich and famous and thus a high escape risk.
Also high risk of slipping on a bar of soap, or tripping on shoelaces etc.
Are they allowed to have shoe laces?
It says he’ll be in level 4 general population. I found the California corrections department manual which says one pair of tennis shoes with “shoe laces white only” are allowed for level 4 gen pop, as well as SHU and psychiatric, but not allowed for intake or ad-seg.
That makes no sense. You think he can afford a higher-quality wall chisel or something? The rich usually get lower security because they would lose access to their wealth if they escaped from prison. Less relevant in Masterson’s case, since he might be in prison the rest of his life, regardless. He’s already lost everything.
Movies is not real life.
