Actor Ashton Kutcher has resigned from his position as chair of Thorn, an organization he co-founded in 2012 to protect children against sexual abuse and sex trafficking. Mila Kunis, Kutcher’s wife, is also stepping down from her position as an observer on the board, according to Time magazine.

In a Sept 15 statement on Thorn’s website, Kutcher wrote, ‘After my wife and I spent several days of listening, personal reflection, learning, and conversations with survivors and the employees and leadership at Thorn, I have determined the responsible thing for me to do is resign as Chairman of the Board, effectively immediately. I cannot allow my error in judgment to distract from our efforts and the children we serve.’

The actors faced criticism after they wrote letters defending their former ‘That ’70s Show’ co-star Danny Masterson, who was sentenced to 30 years to life in prison on Sept 7 after being convicted of raping two women.

Prior to his sentencing, nearly 50 people, including Debra Jo Rupp and Kurtwood Smith, who also starred in ‘That ’70s Show,’ wrote letters to the judge in support of Masterson

After the letters were publicly released, Kutcher and Kunis posted an apology video on Instagram on Sept 9.

'Our heart goes out to every single person who’s ever been a victim of sexual assault, sexual abuse, or rape,’ Kunis said. Kutcher apologized for any ‘pain’ the letters might have caused, saying, ‘They were intended for the judge to read and not to undermine the testimony of the victims or re-traumatize them in any way.’

Thorn board member Ernie Allen praised Kutcher’s previous contributions to the organization, saying in a Sept 15 statement that Ashton ‘has been a strong champion for children and worked tirelessly to protect them from sexual abuse. Through the creation of the DNA Foundation that later became Thorn, he helped build the organization into a major global resource for law enforcement, tech companies and others in the fight against child sexual exploitation. He made a difference.’
