In the weeks since we first learned that Charlie Sheen is HIV positive, several women have come forward claiming that the actor put them at risk by failing to tell them about his condition.
Several former sex partner’s of Sheen’s have filed suit, alleging that the 50-year-old endangered their lives.
Sheen’s ex-fiancee, Brett Rossi, says she had unprotected sex with Sheen on at least five occasions before discovering HIV medication in his medicine cabinet.
But that’s not why Rossi suing Sheen. No, her claim is that Sheen forced her to have an abortion, and she’s seeking unspecified punitive damage for the emotional abuse that she says she suffered while he was pressuring her to terminate the pregnancy.
Now, Sheen is hitting back in his usual style.
In court papers obtained by Us Weekly, Sheen not only denies forcing Rossi to get an abortion, he accuses her of extortion and working as a prostitute while they were engaged.
“This is a case by an extortionist, Scottine Ross aka Brett Rossi…who gets paid for sex as a prostitute and a porn star,” says a document filed by Sheen’s lawyers.
“Rossi is banking on the fact that Sheen will pay her millions of dollars to avoid the negative publicity surrounding this action… Rossi wants revenge” and to “punish Sheen for breaking off their engagement and cutting her off financially.”
The attorneys go on to claim that Rossi was aware of Sheen’s illness from the start of their relationship, and they say they can prove that her claims of physical abuse are entirely fabricated.
Sources say Sheen had initially planned to settle out of court, but is now hoping the case goes to trial so that he can prove his point.
