LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – “That ’70s Show” actor Danny Masterson was sentenced on Thursday to 30 years to life in prison for raping two women about 20 years ago in a case that stirred controversy around the Church of Scientology, City News Service reported.

The 47-year-old actor and prominent Scientologist, who starred in the retro comedy for eight seasons until 2006, was convicted in June in a second trial. A jury deadlocked on a charge that he raped a third woman.
