In all likelihood, Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis wrote letters in support of Danny Masterson thinking few besides the judge in Masterson’s rape trial would read them. But after Masterson was sentenced on 7 September to 30 years to life for the rapes of two women, the letters were unsealed and posted online for wider review.
Kunis writes that upon first meeting Masterson as a teenager, “I could sense his innate goodness and genuine nature.” Kutcher, in his letter, notes his inability to recall an instance of Masterson lying to him in the 25 years they’ve known each other. “I do not believe he is an ongoing harm to society and having his daughter raised without a present father would [be] a tertiary injustice in and of itself,” Kutcher writes. Both call him a “role model”.
