Up until recently, it seems that At The Drive In frontman Cedric Bixler-Zavala has been somewhat privately fighting a war against actor Danny Masterson (‘That 70s Show‘, ‘The Ranch‘) and the Church Of Scientology. He has however since grown more vocal now that his wife, Chrissie Carnell Bixler, has publicly stepped out with an allegation that she was raped by Masterson, who is a Scientologist, in the early 2000s.
Chrissie, previously pressed charges against Masterson via the Los Angeles Police Department, though both her and her husband claim that the investigation was buried by the Church Of Scientology. She is one of a handful of women who made similar allegations against Masterson, as The Daily Beast report.
Both Cedric and Chrissie claim the Church Of Scientology has been targeting them since the allegations were first made, with Cedric tweeting last week:
My wife is one of Danny Masterson’s rape victims. Of course Danny being the scumbag he is outed her by name a while ago with the help of his ding bat publicist Jenni Weinman. The Church of Scientology has been harassing us since last year when she pressed charges https://t.co/xCwHQzD48e

Our phones and computers have been tapped and the Church has been outsourcing private investigators and various thugs to follow and try and intimidate my family under the policy known as fair game. If anything happens to my wife while I’m gone on tour then you’ll know why.

All my wife ever wanted was an apology from Danny Masterson for raping her. All she got was a letter from him that would make your skin crawl. Can you imagine how the other 3 victims feel? Allegations my ass we are stuffed to rafters in evidence.

My wife pressed charges against Danny Masterson a year ago after learning of the other victims that he and the Church of Scientology had silenced. Twitter, TMZ, LAPD are all bought and paid for.

Last year around November I got a cease and desist letter from Marty “the Renfield of Hollywood “ Singer because my tweets were too suggestive. I never named Danny once. Marty use to rep Cosby. Need I say more?

I predict Danny Masterson will pull a Polanski and flee.

Cedric also hinted that some of the lyrics from the At The Drive In‘s latest album, “In•ter a•li•a“, referenced the matter:
U might wanna go back and re read my “nonsensical” lyrics off our last ATDI record.

As Brooklyn Vegan note, the song “Incurably Innocent” appears directly tied to the alleged incident, with lines such as:
“He keeps a-hiding your photograph
Of the moment that you needed to emasculate his
Photograph but you locked up in the trance of a memory
Photograph of the moment that you needed to emasculate his
Photograph but you locked up in the trance of a memory
Marching to the coffins on Franklin AvenuePreyed on the anguish, you better run
Always dragging a finger across his throat
Man is the fixer to sage the ghosts
And the faith that awarded his every move”
Notably, the Church of Scientology Celebrity Centre International is located on Franklin Ave. in Los Angeles, CA. Masterson for his part has denied the allegations brought forward against him.
