US TV star Danny Masterson sentenced to 30 years to life for two rapes at height of fame in 2001-3 after drugging women — www.bbc.com — 7 September 2023 (LINK)

— Throughout the trial, prosecutors argued that the Church of Scientology had helped cover up the assaults — an allegation the organisation has categorically denied. At the time of the attacks, Masterson and all three of his accusers were Scientologists.

In its statement after the verdict in May, the Church of Scientology said there was "not a scintilla of evidence supporting the scandalous allegations that the Church harassed the accusers".
