I find the jurors hopelessly deadlocked, Olmedo reportedly said.

Per the AP, Olmedo scheduled Mastersons retrial for March.

Masterson has maintained his innocence.

Mastersons attorney, Philip Cohen, heralded the outcome.

Asked how Masterson felt about the mistrial, Cohen said, He feels the same way I do.

Its a big relief, at this stage.

(Mastersons attorney told Vulture that the actor would not consider a plea deal.)

Mastersonwas charged with raping three womenat his Hollywood home in separate incidents during the 2000s.

One of these accusations involved alleged insufficient evidence.

The other stemmed from statute-of-limitations issues, prosecutors said.

The allegations against Masterson surfaced inMarch 2017, prior to the Me Too movement gaining traction.

Masterson began losing roles as afifth womanalleged that he had sexually assaulted her.
