Treat women as you would have them treat you, Charlie!
Surprise!
Charlie Sheen copped a "not guilty" plea when he was in court yesterday.
If you recall, the "Two and a Half Men" star was booked for domestic violence charges (menacing, criminal mischief and assault) arising from an incident over the Christmas holidays in Aspen, Colorado.
During the course of a 911 emergency call, Sheen's wife - Brooke Mueller - alleged that the high-profile actor put a knife to her throat during a quarrel and threatened to kill her if she sought a divorce.
On the heels of the incident, Sheen admitted himself to a rehab program here in Southern California, which triggered a shut-down on production at the studio where the popular TV Sitcom was filming (and landing top ratings for the Network).
For weeks there has been speculation - by TMZ and legitimate news outlets, too - that Sheen would go for a plea bargain.
Not true!
Although Mr. Sheen has admitted arguing with his high-strung emotional wife on the day of the incident, the pint-sized actor has denied threatening Ms. Mueller.
The Judge presiding over the proceedings has set a court date for July 21st (2010).
On that date, I expect a media circus will descend on the courthouse, unless authorities manage to stop posturing and agree to equitable terms Sheen may be inclined to accept in the interests of judicial economy.
News at 11!
A stiff di*k has no conscience!
