Leah Remini, Noted Scientology Critic, Reacts To Danny Masterson Verdict
Former "That 70s Show" star Danny Masterson was found guilty of rape yesterday. The Los Angeles jury convicted the forty-seven-year-old actor on two counts of rape, while the last count resulted in a hung jury. He could face between thirty years to life for the sexual assaults that took place in the early 2000s. The guilty verdict has generated a lot of statements from those involved, but few are getting as much traction as the one from Leah Remini, who was a regular presence in court.
The noted actress has been an outspoken critic of Scientology. She left the Church back in 2013, and in the time since, she’s produced documentaries, TV shows and a podcast criticizing the Church for a variety of issues. Masterson is a Scientologist and he was also sued alongside the Church for allegedly harassing and intimidating the women making the allegations. At one point, the Church was even accused of murdering two dogs one of the women had.
