Actor Danny Masterson has been charged with raping three women at his Hollywood Hills home from 2001 to 2003, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office said on Wednesday, June 17.

The 44-year-old actor – who appeared in “That ’70s Show” and “The Ranch” – is set to be arraigned Sept. 18 at the downtown Los Angeles courthouse on three counts of rape by force or fear.

The criminal complaint, filed Tuesday, alleges that Masterson raped three women, Deputy District Attorney Reinhold Mueller said.

The District Attorney’s Office declined to file sexual assault charges against him in two other alleged incidents, citing insufficient evidence on one and the statute of limitations on the other.

Masterson could face up to 45 years to life in state prison if convicted as charged.
