Charlie Sheen Granted Work Release, Likely to Begin Sentence This Week
We have an update on Charlie Sheen's plea bargain case - and the punishment for his alleged abuse of Brooke Mueller late last year continues to get lighter and lighter.
On Monday, the actor is expected to submit his plea and his proposal to the judge. It will include a request for a work release program, which means Sheen would be free to leave jail between the hours of 8 a.m. and 8 p.m.
Where will he go? TMZ reports the Two and a Half Men star will work at a professional theater in Aspen, serving as an acting coach, assisting with fundraisers and performing whatever tasks are asked of him.
He won't receive a salary, which should be rough on Sheen: he'll have to get by on the measly $2 million per episode CBS will pay him this fall. Poor, poor guy.

I hope everything works out nice for him in anything he's going to do for himself and any changes that, it wouldn't be looked at as a wrong phase in any direction he wanted to go, and I read his wife is still by his side and thier working out everything and it's non of my business at all about anything about his personal life, a life, I think that blew up so much in the public eye and on TV. People have thier problems and just move on, and I know I write from my end in my own free written blogs, in a fanatsy about charles, but I'm very aware, I'm looking at a very private and professional man, that is well liked by his co-workers and people involved closet to him, I just think sometimes when if he dose go to jail, that the room looked kind of small, in the slides, people are talking about it being unfair, that it should be worse for him, anybody has thier right to free speech, say what they want, I just don't like the idea of walls closing in on Charlie, please don't blame me for think

Never excusing domestic viollence but I get the feeling both played a part in it. I can't get too upset about. Lilo has 2 DUIs and more and she got no jail time. Its par for the course. who really thought charlie would do time? Even if its not Hollywood, DV is not taken seriously anywhere.
