Former “That ’70s Show” star Danny Masterson has been relocated from the maximum-security prison that once housed cult leader Charles Manson. Records reveal that Masterson has been transferred to the California Men’s Colony in San Luis Obispo, a state prison known for its minimum and medium-security facilities.
The move follows Masterson’s conviction on two counts of forcible rape, for which he was sentenced to 30 years to life in prison. The actor had initially been held in a high-security facility in Central California, which has historically housed notorious figures like Charles Manson.
The California Men’s Colony is designated as a male-only prison and operates as a minimum and medium-security institution. This shift suggests a change in Masterson’s incarceration conditions, moving from a more restrictive environment to one with a different security classification.
Masterson’s transfer comes as part of the standard procedures within the state’s corrections system. Inmates may be moved based on factors such as behavior, security needs, or the availability of appropriate facilities.
According to prison records, Masterson will be eligible for parole in 2042, a date that falls after he turns 60 years old. The transfer to a medium-security prison indicates a change in Masterson’s confinement, with potential implications for his daily routines and access to certain privileges.
As the actor continues to serve his sentence, the details surrounding his incarceration and any subsequent developments will be closely monitored.
