Tuesday that Masterson drugged the women in order to assault them, then relied on his status as a prominent member in the Church of Scientology to avoid consequences for years.
Masterson, 47, has pleaded not guilty to raping three women at his home between 2001 and 2003. His attorney, Philip Cohen, told jurors during his closing Tuesday that the women's years-old stories as so full of inconsistencies that there is more than enough reasonable doubt for jurors to acquit Masterson.
“Miss Anson presented a case as if she was arguing a drugging case," Cohen said."Maybe it’s because there is no evidence of force or violence.”
