Danny Masterson’s legal team filed an appeal Wednesday to the disgraced actor’s 2023 rape conviction, according to documents obtained by Fox News Digital.The defense requested that convictions be overturned due to numerous procedural and substantive errors that compromised the fairness and reliability of the trial, per the documents. The “That 70s Show” actor was sentenced to 30 years to life in prison last year, the maximum allowed by law, and will be eligible for parole after serving more than 25 years.“The Appellant’s Opening Brief submitted on December 18, 2024, demonstrates two fundamental flaws in Danny Masterson’s convictions: (1) the trial was rife with erroneous judicial rulings that skewed the jury’s view of the evidence against him and (2) there was a stunning amount of exculpatory evidence which was never presented to the jury,” Masterson’s lawyer, Cliff Gardner, shared in a statement.

Having been given a whopping $100 million deal with Netflix — the ultimate nepo-baby trophy — the couple still can’t read a room or an audience.Their latest offering, the docu-series “Polo,” is a resounding flop.“This series offers audiences an unprecedented, behind-the-scenes look into the passion and determination driving some of the world’s elite polo players, revealing the grit behind the glamour,” Prince Harry has said.Sounds great, Harry!
