![Whitney Houston -- Prescription Drugs Found ... Possible Drowning [Exclusive Photo Update]](http://ll-media.tmz.com/2012/02/12/0211-hero-whitney2-248x127.jpg)
In what could be a blow to the prosecution's case against Charlie Sheen, Brooke Mueller is now in rehab for substance abuse ... TMZ has confirmed.
The criminal case in Aspen comes down to Charlie's word against Brooke's -- she claims he put a knife to her throat and threatened her life. He denies it.
As we first reported, Brooke had been drinking before she called 911 and that could affect her credibility.
Now we've learned Brooke checked into The Canyon rehab facility in Malibu last Tuesday -- the day after Charlie's arraignment on felony and misdemeanor charges. If Brooke struggled with substance abuse around the Christmas Day incident, it could severely impact her credibility.
TMZ could not reach Brooke's attorney for comment.

Most people don't check into inpatient rehab for a substance abuse problem. More than likely she is alcohol dependent which requires a higher level of care such as the place she checked into.

Her blook alcohol level was higher than Charlies that night. Im sure she lied a little b/c she later tried to take her statement back.
HOW SICKENING YOU RICH BITCHES ARE..... DUMB DRUNKEN DRUG ADDICT AND YOU CANNOT EVEN TAKE CARE OF YOUR OWN CHILDREN....
BROOKE YOU SHOULD GO BURY YOUR HEAD IN THE SAD WITH EMBARRASMENT!!
YOUR CHILDREN DESERVE A BETTER MOTHER THAN YOU!!
OMG! They're all NUTS in Hollywood! They have EVERYTHING, but they have NOTHING! Fire them and get some POSITIVE role models for our kids! This whole country is going down the tubes from Washington to Hollywood!
Charlie Sheen likes women with mental & addiction problems so he can control them & continue his own bad behavior. He should not be able to re produce.
see poor charlie doesn't have the problem she does she was drunk christmas morning at eight thirty am very drunk, what kind of mother does that?!?!? she needs rehab!

damn good point!
Charlie has finally met his match in the f*d up department. Can we get a comment from Denise Richards? She's probably been thrilled that Charlie was facing felony charges. This certainly could affect the case.
And when she was released from the hospital she went to rehab for a week..but said it wasn't for substance abuse..it was to help get over her illness from the hospital.
Funny how now she's back in rehab and this helps Charlie out. She was more drunk than he was that morning.
Celebs don't know what to do with money..I know what I'd do..pay bills...Pass some money to me!
Nope. This is a plan to get the charges dropped. Pretty smart but I smell you. The DA is not that dumb I hope. The charges are going forward.
Finally! The truth comes out. She has no clue what she said-she was DRUNK. There went the case - I bet those psycho DA's in Aspen just soiled their boxers. LMAO-I won't ever go back to Colorado.
Charlie will enter one his show ends production in April. The children can not have both parents in rehab at the same time... Also this could be a ploy by Brooke to stop the prosecution'
I agree with you Lisa, they can't spend their money fast enough! I am happy to have a nice home, a decent car and enough food to eat with a bit left over to SAVE in case of emergency. Those fools should have to take a money management course before signing big contracts and marrying someone who has a nice big fat paycheck! Only then should they be allowed to have CHILDREN!
Of course she went to rehab. Her blood alcohol was sky-high during the incident, but she has already expressed her regrets so now she goes to rehab so she doesn't screw up her marriage to her $1 mil-per-episode hubby, she looks bad, he doesn't, and they go on to live unhappily ever after. Case dismissed!
