Seems like Charlie Sheen can’t stay clean no matter the circumstances. 8 days from completing his probation, Charlie Sheen was hospitalized after being found drunk, naked, possibly high and in a room with chairs thrown around and a damaged chandelier. All of this happened after he had gone back to his hotel room with an unidentified woman, who is suspected of being an escort, and apparently Sheen flew into a rage after noticing his wallet and cell phone had gone missing. Sheen’s representatives report that he had an allergic reaction to some medication and was taken to the hospital. However, the inexplicably popular, ad-nauseum laugh-tracked filled TV show “Two and a half men” will continue to film in LA after the producers sent a private plane for Sheen. All of the events in New York occurred after he had a visited with his ex-wife and his daughter. So what kind of charges could Sheen face (assuming he is charged with anything at all)?
Drug Charges
If you have in your possession, intend to sell, or are distributing illegal drugs, you are likely to face some sort of criminal penalty. Depending on the type of drugs in question, the amount, and your previous record, you could receive anything from a fine or probation up to serious imprisonment. However, some drugs have been somewhat decriminalized recently. In California, the possession of a small amount of marijuana is now just an infraction, which carries with it a fine, just like a parking violation.
Damage To The Hotel
While staying in a hotel, you should try your best to resist the urge to wreck the place. While hotels expect that there will be some wear and tear (and maybe some jumping on the bed), they do not expect a person to throw chairs around, break tables, steal television sets, invite hookers up to the room and watch as they try to steal copper wire out of the room, or leave Mike Tyson’s tiger in the bathroom. When you damage a hotel room, you will likely be presented with a bill to repay the hotel for the cost of fixing the room. In a situation like this, the bill to replace broken furniture in an upscale New York City hotel room could be quite expensive.
Hiring an Escort
An escort is supposedly someone who will escort you from one place to another, or to keep you company. However, many times the term “escort” is a thinly veiled connotation for someone who is a prostitute. In most states prostitution is illegal. Not only can the prostitute be prosecuted, but the person paying for the prostitutes service (usually called a “john”) can also be prosecuted for soliciting sexual acts for money. Here, there is no indication of what exactly Sheen was doing with the unidentified woman, however, he does have a history of paying for escorts. If Sheen did indeed pay an escort for sexual favors, then he might be prosecuted for doing so.
What do you think, is Sheen guilty? Will you stop watching two and a half men because of it?
