Charlie Sheen Enters Rehab as a Preventative Measure

Following the news that his wife Brooke Mueller has left a rehab facility in Malibu, Calif., Charlie Sheen's rep confirms that the actor has entered a rehab treatment center as a "preventative measure."

Sheen's rep says, "As a preventative measure, Charlie Sheen has entered a rehabilitation facility. He will take some time off his series 'Two and a Half Men.' He has asked that his privacy be honored."

Earlier this month, three counts were filed against the actor, a felony menacing count and two misdemeanors (3rd degree assault and criminal mischief), in relation to an alleged domestic violence dispute that occurred last Christmas between him and his wife. The next court date on the matter is set for March 15.
