In September, the "That '70s Show" actor was sentenced to 30 years to life in prison after being found guilty in May on two counts of forcible rape. A jury was hung on a third charge.

His new facility once housed Charles Manson. The notorious criminal cult leader was admitted to state prison on seven counts of first-degree murder and one count of conspiracy to commit murder for the August 1969 deaths of Abigail Ann Folger, Wojciech Frykowski, Steven Earl Parent, Sharon Tate Polanski, who was eight months pregnant, Jay Sebring, Leno La Bianca and Rosemary La Bianca, according to CDCR.
