American actor, Danny Masterson, popularly known for his role as Steven Hyde on the ‘That ’70s Show’, has been charged with raping three women.
The 44-year-old was arrested on Wednesday, June 17, and later released that day too on a $3.3 million bail.
According to reports, authorities say Masterson is accused of raping a 23-year-old woman between January and December 2001.
He also allegedly raped a 28-year-old woman in April 2003 and a 23-year-old woman between October and December of that year.
All of the alleged crimes took place at Masterson’s Hollywood Hills home, authorities said.
The press release from District Attorney’s Office also revealed that the office declined to file sexual assault charges against Masterson in two other cases, “one for insufficient evidence and the other based upon the statute of limitations for the crime alleged.”
If convicted, the Hollywood star, Masterson will face a possible sentence of up to 45 years to life in state prison.
