'My Truth: The Rape of 2 Coreys': Charlie Sheen has faced a slew of accusations but always comes out unscathed
In the wake of Corey Feldman's upcoming bombshell documentary "(My) Truth: The Rape of Two Coreys," we take a look back at the time Charlie Sheen was accused of raping deceased actor Corey Haim -- an accusation vehemently denied by the 'Two and a Half Men' star.
The case obviously did not end Sheen's long and storied career, and several other allegations against the 'Platoon' star have died a similar death.
“It’s kind of like OJ, he gets away with murder,” Kacey Jordan, one of Sheen’s former lovers, alleged to The Daily Beast in 2017. “Charlie gets away with, you know, being the party boy and whatnot of Hollywood. I think that just somewhat falls in the line that it makes it OK when it’s probably in fact, of course, not.”'
In November 2017, the National Enquirer published a report painting Sheen as a twisted child molester -- unearthing claims that the 'Wall Street' star sodomized child actor Corey Haim and was responsible for sending him down a drug-fueled spiral that ultimately resulted in his tragic demise.
The publication also accused Sheen of preying on several other children connected to the 1986 film 'Lucas', when the then 19-year-old Sheen is alleged to have abused Haim, then 13.
“Haim told me he had sex with Sheen when they filmed ‘Lucas,’” Dominick Brascia, a former actor and a close friend to Haim told The Enquirer at the time. “He told me they smoked pot and had sex. He said they had anal sex. Haim said after it happened Sheen became very cold and rejected him. When Corey wanted to fool around again, Charlie was not interested.”
However, Haim allegedly told Brascia he had hooked up with Sheen again when he was in his mid-20s. "Haim told me he had sex with Sheen again,” Brascia told the outlet. “He claimed he didn’t like it and was finally over Sheen. He said Charlie was a loser.”
Dozens of the other sources reportedly named Sheen as Haim's abuser before the latter died of drug-induced pneumonia in 2010.
“Corey was so confused by the sexual encounter he believed, like so many victims, he was ‘in love’ with his abuser,” one of the sources told The Enquirer, claiming that in reality, Sheen had bullied Haim into a vulnerable position for sex.
Feldman also spoke of the alleged incident in his 2013 tell-all book 'Coreyography: A Memoir.'
“At some point during the filming [of ‘Lucas,’ Haim] explained an adult male convinced him it was perfectly normal for older men and younger boys in the business to have sexual relations, that it was ‘what all guys do,'" Feldman wrote.
“So they walked off to a secluded area between two trailers during a lunch break for the cast and crew,” he continued, “and Haim, innocent and ambitious as he was, allowed himself to be sodomized.”
However, Sheen was never named in Feldman's memoir.
“I’m not a huge fan of Charlie Sheen…especially the way he’s affected other people that I know," Feldman said of the Hollywood veteran in 2011, adding that his friend Haim had “fought for his entire life to recover from those early experiences and to get his life together.”
But despite a barrage of sexual assault accusations, Sheen went on to earn more than $2 million an episode on 'Two and a Half Men' -- making him the richest man on television.
Aside from the Corey Haim case, the 'Young Guns' sensation has faced a litany of other accusations in his career but managed to escape unscathed every time.
In 1990, Sheen "accidentally" shot his then-fiancee Kelly Preston (now married to John Travolta) with a .22 pistol.
Four years later, an unnamed UCLA student sued Sheen alleging he hit her in the head after she refused to have sex with him. At the time, he was married to model Donna Peele, his first wife.
Sheen was arrested in 1996 for brutally beating Brittany Ashland, who received seven stitches in her lip after he slammed her head on a marble floor and threatened to kill her. However, he only received two years of probation after pleading "no contest" to related charges, saying he was simply "trying to contain her" after she tried to attack him.
And in 2006, Sheen's ex-wife Denise Richards charged in a court filing that he visited several “disturbing” websites “which promoted very young girls, who looked underage to me with pigtails, braces and no pubic hair performing oral sex with each other.”
'(My) Truth: The Rape of Two Coreys', directed by Brian Herzlinger and produced by Corey Feldman, is set to premiere March 9 to commemorate the 10th anniversary of Corey Haim’s death.
