I've been watching this video and it addresses contemporary evidence about a murder that Ashton Kutcher was involved in back in the early 2000's. Although the police never fingered him as a suspect, people are debating it now. Not just that, but it also addresses his association with convicted rapist, Danny Masterson and how Ashton defended him. What are your thoughts?
The fall-out continues over Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis’ defense of Danny Masterson, along with outrage the couple sparked with a video they posted in which they tried to apologize for writing glowing character letters ahead of their friend’s sentencing last week to 30 years to life after being convicted of two of three counts of rape.
The verdict of the internet is that Kutcher and Kunis failed to show genuine remorse in their allegedly “lawyered” apology video, or authentic concern about “re-traumatizing” Masterson’s victims by calling him their “role model” and by appearing to minimize one key aspect of the women’s testimony — that their friend drugged them before attacking them.
It was “incredibly insulting and hurtful,” one of Masterson’s victims said to a journalist. Another accuser, Chrissie Carnell Bixler, went further, going on the offensive and telling Kutcher on Instagram Story: “You’re just as sick as your ‘mentor.'”
Even more, Bixler, who dated Masterson from 1995 to 2002, seemed to remind Kutcher of a particularly painful time in his life — when he was the witness in the 2001 murder of Ashley Ellerin, a 22-year-old model and fashion student from Los Altos. Bixler suggested he knew more than he told police.
“Dear Ashton, I know the secrets your ‘role model’ keeps for you,” Bixler wrote, not directly citing the murder case. “Ones that would end you. Did you forget I was there? You were on speaker phone that night you called Danny on February 21, 2001. I heard everything. I heard the plan.”
Bixler is no doubt referring to the Feb. 21, 2001 killing of Ellerin, who was found dead the next day in her Hollywood apartment with 47 stab wounds.
