Former "That '70s Show" star Danny Masterson was sentenced to 30 years to life in prison after he was convicted of rape earlier this month. Prior to that, his former co-stars, long-time friends and Hollywood A-list couple Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis shared letters of support requesting sentencing leniency. In his letter, Kutcher called Masteron a "role model." Kunis also praised Masterson's "exceptional character" and referred to him as an "outstanding older brother figure."
The universally adored couple may have been under the assumption that their letters would remain confidential, but they was shared with the general public on Friday by a court reporter and the backlash was immediate. Chrissie Bixler, one of three of Masterson's ex-girlfriends who accused him of rape, blasted Kunis and Kutcher on Instagram for their letters of support, saying Kutcher was "just as sick as his mentor." Bixler dated Masterson from 1996-2002 while he was on "That '70s Show" and during the time of the assaults he was accused of.
