2. Another Accuser, Chrissie Bixler, Called Riales ‘Amazing’ & Says Masterson ‘Will Never Do This to Another Human Being Ever Again’

In her tweet, Riales tagged Chrissie Bixler, who was the first of the three previous rape accusers to publicly come forward with her accusations against the 41-year-old Masterson in a November article in The Daily Beast.

Bixler responded to Riales in a Twitter reply, writing, “You are amazing. I’m so proud of you. He will never do this to another human being ever again. He’s a thief in the night, but he overlooked some incredibly valuable things we still possess. Our voice.”

Three other women have also accused Masterson of raping them in the early 2000s, according to The Huffington Post’s Yashar Ali.

Yashar Ali wrote on Twitter that he has been talking to Riales as part of his reporting on Masterson.

The LAPD has been investigating the accusations, but no charges have been filed.

“The Los Angeles Police Department Robbery Homicide Division, Sexual Assault Section, is conducting an investigation involving the actor Danny Masterson. Three women have come forward and disclosed that they were sexually assaulted by Masterson during the early 2000s,” the LAPD said in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter.

The rape investigation was first reported in March by Tony Ortega on The Underground Bunker. He wrote that there are, “at least three alleged cases of rape or sodomy of women who were also Scientologists and who claim they were pressured by the Church of Scientology not to contact police or go public with their accusations.”

3. Masterson, Who Was Fired From His Netflix Show, Has Denied All the Rape Accusations Against Him

Masterson was fired by Netflix from the show “The Ranch” on December 5 amid the mounting accusations against him.

“As a result of ongoing discussions, Netflix and the producers have written Danny Masterson out of ‘The Ranch.’ Yesterday was his last day on the show, and production will resume in early 2018 without him,” the company said in a statement.

Masterson, best known for “That ’70s Show,” told CNN in a statement, “From day one, I have denied the outrageous allegations against me. Law enforcement investigated these claims more than 15 years ago and determined them to be without merit. I have never been charged with a crime, let alone convicted of one. In this country, you are presumed innocent until proven guilty. However, in the current climate, it seems as if you are presumed guilty the moment you are accused.”

In a statement to The Hollywood Reporter in March, a representative for Masterson, a scientologist, said that the accusations against him were motivated by Leah Remini, who left the church and has worked to expose wrongdoing by it. The rep said Remini “was in contact” with his accuser, saying, “these false allegations appear to be motivated to boost Leah Remini’s anti-Scientology television series since [the alleged victim] only came forward after connecting with Leah Remini.”

Remini told The Daily Beast that the LAPD has possibly stalled the investigation into the Masterson accusations because of a cozy relationship with the Church of Scientology.

Masterson has been married to actress Bijou Phillips since 2011.
