Danny Masterson Moved to Maximum-Security California State Prison That Once Held Charles Manson
The convicted "That '70s Show" actor will be first eligible for parole in 2042 – when he's 66 The post Danny Masterson Moved to Maximum-Security California State Prison That Once Held Charles Manson appeared first on TheWrap.
Danny Masterson has been moved to what is likely to be his long-term location: Corcoran State Prison in Central California, a maximum-security facility that for years was the home of Charles Manson, according to state records.
Masterson was convicted last May by a Los Angeles jury of raping two women in the 1990s. After spending time in an LA County lockup and later the North Kern state prison intake facility, Masterson was recently moved to Corcoran, situated about halfway between Bakersfield and Sacramento.
That’s where the former “That ’70s Show” star is expected to serve the bulk of his 30-years-to-life sentence. Prison records show he will first be eligible for parole in 2042, when the 47-year-old Masterson, the father of a pre-teen girl with Bijou Phillips, is 66 years old.

“Inmates at Corcoran State Prison live in small, cramped cells, often shared with one or more cellmates. Living conditions have been criticized for being overcrowded and unsanitary, with inadequate access to medical care and basic necessities,” Corcoran State Prison says on its website.
The prison says it has armed guards, surveillance cameras, razor-wire fences, and electrified barriers. It has been the subject of numerous lawsuits over the years, alleging neglect, abuse and violation of inmates’ rights.
Masterson’s transfer came a week after he was denied bail. In documents obtained by The Wrap, Judge Charlaine Olmedo wrote in her order that the actor was considered a flight risk.
“If defendant’s conviction and sentence are upheld on appeal, he will likely remain in custody for decades and perhaps the rest of his life,” Olmedo wrote.
“In light of the fact that defendant has no wife to go home to, defendant now has every incentive to flee and little reason to return to state prison to serve out the remainder of his lengthy sentence should his appeal be unsuccessful,” the judge said, referencing Masterson’s divorce proceedings with estranged wife Bijou Phillips.

Yeah,like in prison if you are a rapist ,your like super prime for the same treatment in jail. Except it's never okay. So this is sad.Danny Masterson Transferred To Minimum Security Prison In San Luis Obispo
There is a Youtube guy (Growing Up In Scientology) that claims he was attacked. He was not coming out of his cell or eating. When the guards took him out, 2 gang members attacked him. Apparently they had concerns about his mental health, so they moved him to a mental health prison. That part is my opinion, but you can google it or Youtube search it. There's also a DM article.

I think both are true, they were already planning to move him and he was also attacked. moo
The guy is a convicted rapist, why should he get better treatment than any other rapist?
From Yahoo News:
Danny Masterson’s life in prison sounds more like a relaxing weekend than a punishment. Sources exclusively tell In Touch that the convicted rapist participates in sports and enjoys video games and a collection of TV shows and movies downloaded on the prison tablets.
“At about 11:30 or so he heads out to the pickleball court which has a basketball rim where he stretches and works out. And then he plays pickleball for about two hours --- and he plays pretty decent,” an insider reveals. “He’s getting better and his playing has improved in the past few months. He’s on the court quite a bit. The one thing I can say is that his jump shot is surprisingly good – not like the thespians I knew when I went to high school.”
Masterson, 48, has also apparently made nice with the prison’s security guards.
The source adds, “Masterson works for prison guards as an errand boy. He hands out ‘ducats’ or permission slips to fellow inmates who have medical appointments, counseling sessions and other appointments within the prison.”
At 3 p.m. every day, Masterson’s required to be in his cell for a headcount, according to the insider, but he’s allowed to use a “prison-issued tablet.” With the device, he can play video games or choose from a selection of TV shows and movies to watch. However, the source clarifies that the prisoners “don’t have access to traditional internet,” and all of the That 70s Show alum’s emails and messages are monitored.
“He may have a casserole kind of thing that’s so horrible most guys won’t even eat it,” says the insider. “He will get a grilled chicken and a salad but it’s mostly, like, wilted lettuce. For breakfast they serve eggs – but it’s powdered eggs and soy-based bacon.”
This is likely why Masterson opts for some of the snacks offered at the canteen.
“He can spend up to $300 a month at the canteen. And it has limited items, mostly snack items, chips. Honey Buns is the big thing in prison. For protein they sell bagged chicken and tuna,” the insider tells In Touch.
Despite going from Hollywood to a life behind bars, the source reveals that Masterson seems to be adjusting well.
“He doesn’t seem to be too shy, and he limits where he goes – limits who he has around him. At first, there were a couple people around him that were going to ‘victimize’ him but some of the other prisoners interfered with that,” the insider explains. “So, he’s got a clique of friends, if you want to call them that, that he hangs around with. It’s mostly the guys in the neighboring cells. Like I said, it’s a mature crowd so they are not doing dumb s--t. These are older guys that are out of the gangs serving 25 to life that are rehabilitated hoping to get a [parole hearing] date to get out. They are well behaved.”
After headcount, Masterson heads to dinner, but the food served is less than desirable.

So you want him to suffer much more to atone for his crimes? I wonder if these crimes have been proven by DNA evidence for example.
I think Masterson is being treated like many other prisoners.
Everyone has a job in prison, helping the guards is just one of them.
The tablets are useful in many ways, cutting down prison paperwork ect, not just entertainment for the prisoners.
He will have had counselling specific to how to adapt to prison life as did Martha Stewart.
He will also be ‘in with’ older prisoners, keeping to a small group is likely safer/wiser.
What is it that you object to in his new lifestyle?
