It was speculated that there may have been concerns for the actor's well-being.
Danny Masterson has been relocated to the California Men's Colony in San Luis Obispo after spending just weeks at the Corcoran State Prison in California's Central San Joaquin Valley. The former 'That '70s Show' star is serving a 30 years to life sentence after he was found guilty of two counts of rape last year.
Judge Charlaine F. Olmedo addressed the actor during sentencing, saying, "Mr. Masterson, you are not the victim here. Your actions 20 years ago took away another person's choice and voice."
"Your actions 20 years ago today were criminal, and that's why you are here," the judge said before sending Masterson back into custody. He began his sentence in late December 2023 at North Kern State Prison in Delano, California.
The actor was then transferred to the Corcoran State Prison in January - a maximum security prison where Charles Manson was detained until he died in 2017. He will be eligible for parole in June 2042.
Given the vast differences between facilities, Masterson's transfer from Corcoran State to California Men's Colony made headlines. The CSP is known as one of the most dangerous prisons in the US, while the CMC is a minimum to medium-security prison.
It was speculated that there may have been concerns for the actor's well-being. However, as it turns out, Masterson's prison transfers were most likely just due to routine procedures.
Sadly for Masterson, it was confirmed late last year that his wife, Bijou Phillips, had filed for divorce after almost 12 years of marriage. "Ms. Phillips has decided to file for divorce from her husband during this unfortunate time," her lawyer stated.
"Her priority remains with her daughter," he said. "Ms. Phillips acknowledges that Mr. Masterson is a wonderful father to their daughter."
It is reported that the actor has since signed over full custody of nine-year-old Fianna to Phillips. It's certainly a sad state of affairs for the once-loved sitcom star.
