Danny Masterson Trial: Jane Doe #1 Finishes Her Testimony

• In redirect, the prosecution went back to the 2002 sexual encounter between Masterson and Jen B and ask why she once viewed the anal-sex portion of the incident as non-consensual and the vaginal penetration as consensual. “I had sex vaginally before…and I believed at the time that our faith prohibited that, the second one,” said Jeb B, a former Scientologist.

The prosecution then asked why she changed her mind on consent, picking up the implied thread the defense had put out there that Jen B altered her perspective on the matter of consent with the D.A.’s office and the police. She responded that in 2018 she began to have a different point of view about whether or not the first sexual encounter between herself and Masterson in 2002 was consensual and now believes that the 2002 encounter overall was non-consensual.

• Jen B acknowledged she omitted speaking of David Miscavige and Celebrity Centre boss Susan Watson in her police report. When asked why, she said “I thought I wouldn’t get in as much trouble going to the police. I thought I could report the crime and keep my family.”

• Asked whether if she feared anyone today amid her testimony, Jen B said, “[Masterson’s] people and his faith, Scientology.” She also said she was afraid for her three children.

• Jen B ssid that she was “very upset” when she finally saw the 2004 LAPD report over 10 years later in 2017 because it was marked an injury report, not a rape. The report in question by LAPD Detective Alexander Schlegel also had dates of the assault and other key details in the document incorrect, including omitting that Masterson brandished a gun in his bedroom in the 2003 incident.

• In reporting the 2003 assault, Jen B says she was instructed by a Scientology executive to omit the word “rape” from the report.

• During a meeting with Scientology ethics officer Julian Schwartz in June 2003, Jen B said she was specifically commanded that “nothing that could be construed to be emotional” was allowed in the report. Informing the court she was writing out the report of the alleged rape in Schwartz’s church office, Jen B also noted that she believed “I could be subjected to disciplinary action for writing anything that could be contested by another person.”

• Things again became heated between lead defense lawyer Phillip Cohen and Jen B. The defense lawyer became increasingly more combative over what Jen B remembered from nearly 20 years ago and supposed inconsistencies between what she told the LAPD and what she has since testified.

• With the jury gone for the day, the defense tried to get lawyer Marty Singer removed from the witness list even though he represented Masterson in a $400,000 settlement the actor made with Jen B in 2004 and the non-disclosure agreement she signed in Singer’s Beverly Hills office.

“The defense is struggling to see any relevancy,” defense lawyer Karen Goldstein told Judge Olmedo. “Mr. Singer had no correspondence with Scientology.”

That’s it for the week, Hollywood lawyers Marty Singer testifies Monday.
