Danny Masterson's ex-girlfriend has accused him of raping her "repeatedly".
On Wednesday night, actress and model Bobette Riales tweeted that she was raped by the former That 70s Show star whom she dated in 2003. The New York Daily News claims she is the fifth woman to accuse Masterson ofsexual misconduct.
The date of the alleged rapes along with other details of Riales' story are remarkably similar to information shared in the police report filed by one of the four women who had previously accused Masterson of rape, according to the Daily Mail.

"I stayed quiet long enough. Danny Masterson repeatedly raped me. All I seek is justice to prevent this from ever happening to anyone else as it has for some time," Riales, 36, wrote.
"My truth will be heard. I applaud @ChrisseBixler. #metoo #sisters."

"He's a thief in the night, but he overlooks some incredibly valuable things we still possess. Our voice."
The actor's accusers all claim Masterson, 41, violently raped them in the early 2000s.
He has been under investigation by the Los Angeles Police Department and the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office since 2016.
Because of the allegations against him, Masterson was dropped from his Netflix series, The Ranch, on December 5.
"As a result of ongoing discussions, Netflix and the producers have written Danny Masterson out of The Ranch," a spokesperson told DailyMail.com at the time.
"Yesterday was his last day on the show, and production will resume in early 2018 without him."
A representative for the actor released a statement to the Hollywood Reporter in March, suggesting that the allegations against Masterson - a noted Scientologist - were motivated by victims' association with Leah Remini, who left the church.

"We are aware of [the alleged victim's] 16-year-old allegations. It was only after [the alleged victim] was in contact with Leah Remini that she made allegations of sexual assault by Mr Masterson,' the rep stated.
"The alleged incident occurred in the middle of their 6-year relationship, after which she continued to be his longtime girlfriend. Significantly, during their long relationship she made numerous claims that she was previously raped by at least 3 other famous actors and musicians."
The statement went on, accusing the victim of continuing to contact Masterson after their relationship ended, even going as far as threatening his current wife, Bijou Phillips.
