That's probably what the defense will say - "Charlie was high, he didn't realise, he thought Haim was the same age!" the article also says Haim wanted more, which people might use in Sheen's favour.

He was 13 years old though so that should have no bearing. A 13 year old can't consent

I know, but like I said, that's probably what people will leap on.

They should also look at how his life turned out and ended so early, poor guy

Yup.

I have to wonder how many non-abusers were privy to the information, and how they could keep it to themselves. A random sound guy or whatever would have less to lose than a big actor.

He tried so hard to get over his addictions. But in the end he couldn't get over what happened to him.

A 13 year old is quite easy to manipulate. At that age they're very vulnerable and easily led. But this is rape and Sheen should should should should be e in jail.

This wasn't a stranger, it was a co-star. He knew full well the age difference.

I mean he was always wasted at the time. He may not even remember it.

May not remember it NOW. But at the time he would.
