US actor Ashton Kutcher stepped down Friday from his anti-sex-trafficking organisation following outrage over letters he and wife Mila Kunis wrote asking a judge for leniency in sentencing convicted rapist and former That '70s Show co-star Danny Masterson.

Kutcher announced he was resigning effective immediately from his role as board chairman at Thorn, an organisation whose goal is to address the role the Internet plays in child sex trafficking and abuse. Kutcher founded the group with his then-wife, Demi Moore, in 2009.
