Danny Masterson, convicted of rape, continues to draw attention to his strange prison transfers.
The entertainer best known for his time on “That ’70s Show” recently served his third prison stint in two months. The move comes amid reports claiming his move was linked to concerns over his well-being. However, sources with direct knowledge of the situation shared a different narrative.
Insider Says Danny Masterson’s Transfer Is Part Of Prison Procedure
Following his fall from grace in 2023, Masterson received a 30-year prison sentence that began at the beginning of the year with a stay in North Kern. In late January, he was transferred to Corcoran State Prison, known as one of the worst prisons in California.
A few weeks later, he made headlines for leaving a maximum-security prison for a more humane facility: the California Men’s Colony in San Luis Obispo. As noted, the shakeup sparked renewed interest in the convicted entertainer as reports claimed his safety was in jeopardy.
Despite this viral narrative, sources close to the situation denied the speculation. They explained that Masterson was never threatened or assaulted during his time at Corcoran State Prison. Instead, his prison transfer was linked to standard procedures.

Insiders tell TMZ that Masterson’s first detention facility, North Kern State Prison, served as a medium security reception center. Here, inmates are processed into the California prison system, so it is a starting point for inmates before they are transferred to their permanent prison.
In Masterson’s case, he has an elementary and secondary jail post where he will be sent after processing in North Kern. Its primary prison is the California Men’s Colony, and its secondary facility is Corcoran State Prison.
Naturally, the 47-year-old man will be transferred to the California Men’s Colony after a short stay in North Kern. However, when it came time to move him, there were no slots available at the facility, and he was placed in second choice.
It is unclear whether Masterson chose his primary and secondary prison destinations or if the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation is responsible. Nevertheless, the reshuffle followed normal procedure as he was immediately transferred to the California Men’s Colony when there was an opening.
Inside Danny Masterson’s Move From The Notorious ‘Manson’ Prison
As noted, Masterson’s transfer from Corcoran State Prison to the California Men’s Colony made headlines, given the differences between the detention facilities. CSP is known for housing some of the most dangerous inmates in the state, while CMC is characterized as a medium to minimum security prison.

Corcoran State Prison is nicknamed the “Manson” prison because it was once the home of notorious cult leader Charles Manson, who was serving a life sentence for the infamous Tate-LaBianca murders. Compared to the California Men’s Colony, Masterson’s new home is a dream come true.
The “Men at Work” alum is expected to find his new detention facility easier to live in because CMC has fewer restrictions and regulations. The prison also provides academic programs for inmates to acquire vocational and other skills, as well as a well-known self-help program.
If all goes as planned, Masterson will serve out his 30-year sentence at the California Men’s Colony. As mentioned, he received a heavy sentence after being found guilty of having sex without consent with his victim between 2001 and 2003.
The incident occurred at the height of his fame on the Fox network sitcom “That ’70s Show.” One of his victims claimed Masterson drugged them with drinks he gave them when they visited his Hollywood home and violently assaulted them as soon as they passed out.
“When you raped me, you stole from me. That is what is called rape, the theft of the soul. You are pathetic, disturbed, and downright violent. The world is better with you in prison,” one victim declared during an emotional hearing.
Another victim stated that Masterson did not show “the slightest remorse for the pain he caused.” He said, “I know he is in prison for the safety of all the women he meets. I am very sorry, and I am very disappointed. I wish I had reported it to the police sooner.”
