Charlie Sheen has issued a response to a very troubling allegation.
Earlier this week, The National Enquirer spoke to Dominick Brascia, who was a close friend of Corey Haim’s before Haim passed away in 2010.
And Brascia right came out and accused Sheen of raping Haim when the latter was only 13 years old.
“Haim told me he had sex with Sheen when they filmed Lucas,” Brascia told the tabloid about Haim, who died at the age of 38.
Added Brascia:
“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.”
Haim and Sheen starred opposite each other in the 1986 film Lucas.
According to Brascia, they had another very personal interaction years after the movie was finished:
“Haim told me he had sex with Sheen again. He claimed he didn’t like it and was finally over Sheen. He said Charlie was a loser.”
Now, in response to this disturbing charge, a spokesperson for Sheen has stated the following:
[Sheen] absolutely denies the claim.
Sheen was diagnosed with HIV in 2015 and has a well-known history of using drugs and sleeping around.
This, of course, does not mean that the allegations related to Haim are automatically true or anything.
This story, however, emerges four years after Corey Feldman made allegations in his 2013 memoir that he and Haim had been sexually abused by some in the entertainment industry.
“There are people that did this to me and Corey that are still working, they’re still out there, and they’re some of the most rich and powerful people in this business,” Feldman said on The View while promoting the book, adding at the time:
“And they do not want what I’m saying right now. They want me dead.”
In this same Enquirer article, a friend of Sheen’s says the actor has admitted to sex with Haim, but told the friend that the intercourse was consensual.
If such an interaction did take place, however, Haim would have been too young in 1986 to give legal consent.
Meanwhile, this is what Feldman wrote in his aforementioned book about Lucas:
“At some point during the filming, [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 does not mention Sheen by name in the memoir.
Two years before its publication, though, he said in an interview that he’s “not a big fan” of Sheen’s due to the way he’s “affected other people that I know.”
