Danny Masterson Calls Out Leah Remini, His Ex-Lawyer And More In New Filing To Overturn Rape Conviction

Danny Masterson on The Ranch.

Danny Masterson was convicted on two counts of forcible rape back in 2023, and he was ultimately sentenced to 30 years in prison. At present, the former actor is serving time at California Men’s Colony in San Luis Obispo. However, the That ‘70s Show alum is now looking to have that conviction overturned, per a recent legal filing. In those legal documents, Masterson not only blames his former lawyer for the verdict he received but also calls out Leah Remini and others.

This 183-page petition for habeas corpus was filed on Monday, November 17 and, in it, 49-year-old Danny Masterson along with his new lawyer, Eric S. Multhaup called out former Church of Scientology member Leah Remini due to her connection with the case. According to Deadline, Masterson – who was a member of the church – accused Remini of stoking up the police investigation. The King of Queens alum also attended Masterson’s trial but, contrary to speculation, she did not end up testifying.
