Allegations against Charlie Sheen involving Corey Haim have taken his wild but lovable image into dark territory. In the wake of #MeToo, Sheen was accused of sexually abusing 13-year-old Haim on the Lucas set in 1986—a bombshell claim first reported by The National Enquirer via former actor Dominick Brascia, shaking Hollywood.
According to Brascia, Haim confided in him about the disturbing encounter, saying that Sheen initiated the abuse after they smoked pot together. It was an incident that, according to Brascia, left Haim confused and rejected. Other sources later corroborated the claim, stating that Haim believed he was “in love” with his abuser, a typical psychological response from young victims of such trauma.
But Sheen, true to form, didn’t quietly bow out. His legal team swiftly denied the accusations, labeling them as twisted fabrications, while Haim’s mother, Judy Haim, sided with Sheen—further muddying an already convoluted situation. In a shocking twist, Judy claimed Brascia, not Sheen, was the actual predator. Talk about plot twists.
Enter Corey Feldman, Haim’s best friend and longtime ally, in exposing Hollywood’s dark underbelly. Feldman’s documentary (My) Truth: The Rape of Two Coreys threw more fuel on the fire, officially naming Sheen as Haim’s abuser. The film chronicled Haim’s tragic end and the abuse that Feldman claims both friends endured as child stars. It’s a heavy and gut-wrenching account that Feldman has been pushing to the forefront for years, often to much skepticism and controversy.
Still, this story isn’t a straightforward tale of good vs. evil. It’s more like a convoluted mystery thriller. As more people spoke out on both sides, things got messier. Legal proceedings? Halted. The actor filed a defamation suit against The National Enquirer but later dropped it after the parties entered settlement talks. Meanwhile, Sheen’s career, already bruised from his notorious “tiger blood” phase and personal scandals, has taken a lasting hit, with these allegations casting a heavy shadow over his Hollywood legacy.
No criminal charges were ever filed, mainly due to the statute of limitations. Still, these allegations have forever tainted Sheen’s legacy—moving him from a bad-boy comedic icon to a far more sinister figure in the eyes of many. Corey Haim’s story stands as a tragic reminder of Hollywood’s dark history with child actors, still haunting today.
