The District Attorney Masterson refused to speak to the media outside the courthouse. While a spokesman for the actor has not made any comments after the jury’s decision on Wednesday afternoon.

A deadlocked jury led to a mistrial in December, but prosecutors decided to retry Masterson, saying he forcibly raped three women at his Hollywood Hills home between 2001 and 2003. They told the jury he drugged the women’s drinks and used his prominence in the church, where the three women were also members at the time, to avoid consequences for decades.
