“He’s an extremely honest human being” and “I don’t think he’s a walking danger to society,” are the words Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher defended actor Danny Masterson.

Or at least that was the case before his fellow religious friend, a Scientologist, was sentenced to 30 years in prison for sexually abusing three women, a sentence for which the couple publicly apologized.

And both shared a video on Kutcher’s Instagram in which they pointed out that they were only defending the image of the 47-year-old at the request of his relatives, but that they were always on the side of the victims, according to Who magazine.
