EXCLUSIVE: Charlie Sheen's Defense: It Never Happened
Posted on Mar 11, 2010 @ 10:05AM
With a plea bargain increasingly looking unlikely, RadarOnline.com has learned exclusively that Charlie Sheen’s defense in the domestic violence case against him in Colorado will be: It never happened.
Charlie Sheen's Wife's 911 Call - "I'm Scared For My Life"
That’s the key to freedom for the Two and Half Men actor, according to sources close to the case.
Charlie is facing one felony and two misdemeanor charges. Since his Christmas arrest he has entered rehab and so has his wife Brooke Mueller.
But Brooke left rehab and is being treated at home, according to her lawyer. She has an addiction to crack and also suffers from alcoholism.
Charlie will be able to use his wife’s problems at trial, sources close to the case told RadarOnline.com.

Brooke told police that Charlie held a knife to her throat and threatened to kill her.
“Charlie is going to contend that everything Brooke told police isn’t true – that she was out of her head, that she was so messed up she didn’t know what was going on,” one source said.
“She partied hard before the incident. She drank heavily and she smoked crack. And Charlie is fully prepared to use that as part of his defense. Considering the fact that she went into rehab after the incident, Charlie’s argument is going to have a lot of weight.”

The other thing Sheen has going for him is Mueller does not want to cooperate with prosecutors. And while she has to be careful about backing off her story because she could be prosecuted for making false statements to police, she also does not have to cooperate with prosecutors.
Colorado has cracked down on domestic violence cases and won convictions without the testimony of the beaten spouse but this case is more difficult for prosecutors because Mueller’s heavy drug and alcohol usage at the time of the incident will harm her credibility.

“We’re not talking about someone who had a few drinks,” the source said. “We’re talking about someone who was wasted at 8 in the morning and who smoked crack. That’s going to kill her credibility and Charlie knows it and he’s going to use it.”
Sources also told RadarOnline.com that if prosecutors offer Charlie a plea bargain involving only a misdemeanor charge he would likely take it. But prosecution sources have told RadarOnline.com that they will not offer any deal that doesn’t include the felony charge.

With that scenario playing out, Charlie has already readied his strategy for the upcoming trial and even if he doesn’t testify his lawyers will be instructed to argue that Brooke’s charges were the result of her drugged and drunk state and no domestic violence occurred.

A FELONY conviction takes more than the unwilling testimony of victim who at 8:00 am, was not only drunk, but high on crack; a drug known for distorting one’s reality, inducing paranoia and psychosis.

No support by me for Charlie, but the reality is a trial will allow him to get away SCOTT FREE again; a plea should be worked out; at least there would be some sort of consequence given out.

It is so sad when women support men like Charlie Sheen. Abuse is violent and tragic no matter who does it. Charlie thinks he is above the Law and can do whatever he likes. How can he call himself a man? He is an ANIMAL.

Charlie Sheen could have killed Kelly Preston when he shot her. She was lucky that time she got away from him. Now the Charlie's fans want to help him crucify his wife to save his career . Sometimes I wonder what happened to AMERICA.

Charlie Sheen is a MAD DOG who needs to put on a leash meaning prison. If we as a people don't stop making people who victimize women and children victims there is going to be a lot more of this behavior.

Now you see the REAL CHARLIE SHEEN, THE MONSTER. This man shot Kelly Preston before she married John Travolta and never spent a day in jail. When he shot this woman it was an accident. Now him trying to hurt his wife never happened.

I was waiting for this to happen. I have thought he was covering up for his wife's addiction this whole time. I have been in abusive relationships in the past. But something just didn't smell right here

Let's ignore the marks that the police found on her. Yep, she made it all up. His next defense will be "she deserved it.". That's the tact of all abusers.

If someone threatens you and holds a knife to you it becomes a sobering experience. Man up Charlie and take responsibility for what you have done. Otherwise people will know you and your attorney condone violence against women.

When you listen to the 911 call, you can tell she is intoxicated with drugs/alcohol. Slurred speech, interrupted train of thought, etc. Not a credible complainant.
