Ethics Case: No Sheen on Sheen
Charlie Sheen, who starred in the hit CBS television show Two and a Half Men , admitted to using large quantities of cocaine. He was hospitalized with drug overdoses and had been charged with both misdemeanor and felony drug offenses, which led to probation several times. When asked about entering rehab, he said that only losers go to recovery programs and he could cure himself with his mind. He openly spent tens of thousands of dollars on prostitutes. His second wife filed a restraining order against him, alleging that he had pushed her down the stairs and threatened to kill her. He was also charged with a felony for threatening his third wife. She claimed that he held a knife to her throat and said, "You better be in fear. If you tell anybody, I'll kill you." Then there was the widely reported incident in the Plaza Hotel in New York City in which the police escorted him to the hospital after he trashed his room and threatened the prostitute whom he had hired-all while his ex-wife and children slept in a room across the hall. Five months later, the police removed his twin sons from his house after their mother obtained a restraining order. On a radio show, Sheen made anti-Semitic comments about his boss, called him a clown and a charlatan, and said that he "violently hated him." This boss was the most successful producer of comedy shows in the business.
