In November last year, Charlie Sheen was
accused by child star Corey Feldman of having non-consensual sex with Corey Haim, who at the time was only 13-years-old. Unsurprisingly, Sheen was quick to defend himself, and said he intended on
suing the National Enquirer - who ran a story on Feldman's allegations - for "running false and salacious stories" about him.
Now, however, it seems that Sheen has yet more serious accusations to deal with.
Lenny Dykstra, the former major league baseball player, recently gave an explosive interview with The Hollywood Reporter, in which he alleged that Sheen was involved with a whole host of criminal activities - including the murder of his former assistant, Rick Calamaro.
Calamaro died in 2012, and reportedly "was discovered July 1 by his maid, lying face up in his bed beside a bottle of Jack Daniel's". The autopsy ruled Calamaro's death as being accidental and noted that the 50-year-old had "very high" levels of Fentanyl, a powerful opioid, in his system. Calamaro had suffered from depression, anxiety and chronic pain - all of which would explain how he came to be in possession of powerful prescription drugs, and also how he could have accidentally overdosed.
However, Dykstra claims that Sheen confessed to murdering the assistant, whom he had actually fired shortly before his untimely death.
Calamaro was apparently writing an expose on Sheen, and Dykstra warned the Two and a Half Men actor of this. In fact, it was the baseballer who encouraged Sheen to fire the assistant. Shortly after, Dykstra served a short jail sentence and, by the time he got out, Calamaro was dead.
When Dykstra asked Sheen what had happened to Calamaro, Sheen reportedly responded: "'You mean Dead Rick? What f**king happened is the motherf**ker tried to blackmail me just like you said — wanted $5 million. I had him f**king iced."
The baseballer claims that Sheen admitted to having a lethal drug mix added to Calamaro's stash of recreational drugs, knowing that the assistant would use it without question.
What's more, Dykstra claims that Sheen is on the brink of being charged for a number of other criminal offenses. As THR reports: "Sheen is on the verge of being prosecuted, in a roundabout way, for knowingly spreading his HIV — and the actor is under federal investigation for tax and wire fraud."
Even though he and Dykstra used to be close friends, the baseballer has no qualms about exposing his former pal. "Charlie is getting what he deserves," he said.
Sheen was already under investigation by the LAPD for the various child abuse accusations that have been leveled against him, but he vehemently denies having been a part of any sort of
pedophilia ring, and says the reports about his supposed relationship with Corey Haim are slanderous.
In an interview with TMZ, Sheen had formerly said that "In my nearly 35 years as a celebrated entertainer, I have been nothing shy of a forthright, noble and valiant courier of the truth; consistently admitting and owning a laundry list of shortcomings, wrongdoings and indiscretions this traveler hath traveled – however, every man has a breaking point."
He has yet to directly respond to the murder accusation.
