In a panicked 911 call, Charlie Sheen's wife Brooke Mueller tells a dispatcher that the 44-year-old actor -- who was booked Christmas Day for second-degree assault, menacing and criminal mischief -- has a "knife." Pausing occasionally to cry, she says she is "scared" for her life after he "threatened" her.
She tells the dispatcher that Sheen is "in the back room" with the knife -- which she describes as a "switch blade" -- and fears that he is trying to "sneak out the back" of the house in Aspen. (Listen to the call here.)
"I gotta file this report," Brooke says in the call.
Look back at 2009's most explosive breakdowns
After spending most of his Christmas Day behind bars, Sheen, 44, was released on $8,500 bond late Friday. (A rep for the actor tells UsMagazine.com, "Do not be misled by appearance.")
Chief Deputy District Attorney Arnold Mordkin said Monday the menacing charge is the most serious; it carries two to eight years in prison and a fine of $2,000 to $500,000.

Prosecutors say they probably won't decide until Sheen's next court appearance Feb. 8 whether to file charges against the actor.
While Mueller, 32, remains in Aspen (she was photographed smiling during an outing Monday), Sheen is back in Los Angeles.
The two welcomed twins, Bob and Max, this year.















Tell Us What You Think
26Charlie Sheen was vocal about his former wife, Dennis Richardson's complaint about his violence and called her a lier. OK, what about this time. What's his excuse now. Charlie is a mean man, he looks mean, he is mean and violent to boot. Menace to society. His lawyer buddies can talk auntill blue in the face, the fact is Charlie has deep seated problems, is dangerous and need to get his head set on right before he really harms someone. Charlie, you can fool some of the people some of the time, but not all the people all the time.

Okay. I am not taking up for what went on between the two. But come on. He was known for his partying, womanizing etc. for years. Hiedi Fleiss...... So why are people shocked. I LOVE his show and like him as a actor. She was acting like Denise was carzy and telling lies. So I can't say I feel sorry for her!
If Charlie Sheen is not prosecuted and sentenced for such an act, something is definitely wrong with our justice system. It is time that these wealthy jerks are punished for their wrong doings. This has been going on much too long with this jerk. He should not be allowed around his children unless supervised. If this were an ordinary person, we would still be sitting in jail waiting for our trial and then, I am sure for such actions, will go directly to prison. What are wrong with these women that marry this jerk and others like him. It's not that they aren't aware of his doings.
I like him as a actor. Why won't he get his life together (besides $$) and enjoy his life with all his kids and stay married for a change. This guy is blowing it again. He needs help.
Chralie is a bda guy and has been since 1988. You people who are so against him, why did Denise and Brooke marry and have kids with this psyhco, mentally deranged,stupid,ugly , genitically damaged , Asberger's Syndrome, compulsive behavior disorder man and these are the nice things about him? ANSWEWRS??????? Both girls were with him for the money. Denise got 25 million, $25 million dollars. That is not chump change.
All you Charlie Sheen lovers out there, he is not getting off the hook this time. Those kids might be taken from both. Brooke needs to get her a$$ in an alcohol rehab to prove she is fit to raise them. Charlie Sheen should only get court supervisored visits to his children. He has had TOO many breaks. He has broken TOO many families. Sheen has abuse TOO many women. It is NOT the women - It's obviously Charlie Sheen. Although, Brooke needs to stop drinking.
maybe this will keep the next GIRL away, and not have more of his children to have a crazy father!
Z: Us males with money are the alpha dog. You should know that by now. If a woman only wants you for your looks, you are doomed because looks fade.
Brooke seems crazy. Charlie is better off to be rid of her.
This is way too horrific to even think of a reconciliation. For Charlie that is, Brooke is a big weeny.
what do women find attractive in this LOSER? Oh, maybe is the $$$
this loser still finds women who for for his looks or____________his $$$?
so is he gonna get the same treatment as Chris Brown?
I have no sympathy for Denise or Brooke.
Some of you people are so gullible..,oh Denise was not wrong,she realy loved the guy,he should be in the looney bin. Denise and Brooke married himandten had kids ASAP with him nutty/psycho as he is, damaged as he is, body and brain effected , being a recovering drug/alcohol abuser, genetically damaged, ugly,anger short tempered in personality damaged, guy because he is a very stupid and easy megamillionlotto win. Denise got $25 million and. Brooke is going to her 25 million too. Case closed.
I heard he didn't do it. I heard it was the Bush Administration. To WOW, they do it because like Kendra, it is easier to sleep with a disease infested grandpa than get a real life only to read posts on US saying "GO KENDRA!" like the people on this site want their kids to grow up and spread for 80yr old men and habitual womanizers because after all they have money and fame and Over the Horizon thinks the ends justify the means. She deserves whatever she gets having chosen this loser. I have no sympathy for her. Go Kendra!!!!!!!!!! HEE HAW!!!!!!!!!!! ************************************************************************************************************************ Irrelevant much? Last time I checked this article had absolutely NOTHING to do with Kendra. If you're going to talk about HER, click on one of HER stories. If you're commenting on this CHARLIE SHEEN article, talk about HIM.
Guess this proves that Denise was Not lying when she stated how he mistreated her! She really loved the guy and went back to him when she was pregnant with their second child, only to find out he hadn't changed.
he's a dirtbag. yeah I'm gonna be real surprised when the real story comes out. what a total LOSER.
Not good!
