The fact that Ashton was not aware about the numerous sexual assaults coming from the church of scientology is really damming. Sure, he can be biased about long term friend/coworker, it's messed up to write charcter letters after the victim testimony when the went in to the details of what Masterson did, but to turn a blind eye to scientology? And you care about victims? About. trafficking? About SA? Fuck off.
Clearly they were never serious about Thorn and was likely only a PR move. At least Debra Jo Rupp and Kurtwood Smith haven't spent the last couple years telling people to believe victims. Still gross, but Ashton put him self on this pedestal. Kunis to a lesser extent, since she wasnt a founder. But I am just so disappointed at all of these people.
I do believe in innocent until proven guilty, but Ashton publicly crucified and called every person arrested by thorn a trafficker and rapist, before they had their day in court. Yet when it's his friend, even after three verdict, he's still defending him. It just makes all his work with thorn look self serving, and makes me wonder if he's doing it to throw people off the scent, considering he bedded a 14 year old.
Wait what??
When he and his wife met, she was 14. He claims that he did absolutely nothing with her until she turned 18, but considering the stuff that's come out about them in those days recently, I don't believe him
Ashton's first wife was 15 years older than him? And when he married Mila she would've been 32.
I guess they did meet on set when Mila was 14 but like she didn't start dating him until she was in her late twenties and it looks like she was dating Macaulay Culkin before then.
I have no dog in this fight really... I don't have any particular feelings for Ashton; but that doesn't really hit me as the moves of a predator. By her late twenties Mila surely was old enough to make her own choices, no? And she was clearly with someone else for a long time, no?
