Danny Masterson opted not to testify in his ongoing criminal rape trial on Monday, with closing arguments set to begin Tuesday morning.
The notion that Masterson wouldn’t testify isn’t particularly surprising given that defendants on these sorts of cases often elect not to take the stand, but his decision comes as Kevin Spacey and Paul Haggis testified during their own #MeToo civil cases.
Masterson’s attorney Phillip Cohen, who has made several motions for a mistrial throughout the case, motioned for the case to be dismissed Monday, which judge Charlaine Olmedo denied. The people rested their case Monday, and closing arguments are expected to begin on Tuesday.
