Charlie Sheen -- Plea Deal Close

0430_charlie_sheen_ex_getty-1TMZ has learned Charlie Sheen's lawyers are deep in plea negotiations with Aspen prosecutors and a deal is close -- in large part because Charlie's show is hanging in the balance.

Sources close to Sheen tell TMZ Charlie's team has one goal -- the plea deal must be made by May 19 ... the date of the CBS upfronts, when the fall schedule is announced.  We're told CBS is skittish about re-upping the show if Charlie's fate is uncertain.

Insiders involved in the contract negotiations tell TMZ it's increasingly looking like Charlie will cut a new deal with Warner Bros. for two more years of "Two and a Half Men."

As for the plea deal, sources say there have been "numerous conversations" between Charlie's lawyers and Aspen prosecutors.  As we first reported, the hang-up was over whether Charlie would be pleading guilty to a felony or a misdemeanor. 

We're told it looks like Charlie will end up pleading to one count of misdemeanor criminal mischief for breaking Brooke Mueller's eyeglasses.

You're in trouble Charlie. White people love ruining your life just so they can sit back and watch you try to get it together again. It's like some game they play on the rich and....especially black atheletes. It's a new sport.

I hope it works out because Two and 1/2 Men is so funny. I need at least two more years of that show. I want to see what happens when Jake (the son) continues to grow up as a teenager. Only 2 & 1/2 Men and The New Adventures of Old Christine make me laugh out loud. Great writing and great acting. Much better than those reality tv show crap the networks keep spilling onto tv.



Charlie Sheen may have his marital problems, but his show is fantastic.

Money talks! If this was your average American they would be charged with a felony & go to jail, plus pay out a fine & court costs. If these are the kinds of peoiple Obama wants take their money from & give to lazy Americans I am all for it, or better yet send it to working Americans who keep getting screwed by the Government.

OK, so why hasn't someone called him out about shaving his head? Obviously, one of the conditions of whatever deal they cut is that he will have random drug testing by hair folicles, and if you shave your head, well, then, there's not that much to test, right?!?

Here is the ALARMING part for Charlie:



Any girl he dates or marries is going to KNOW that all they have to do is allege this crap to have the paps and local police instantly believe it no matter the facts. What a stinking weapon! In this case his wifey was DRUNK and on DRUGS when she called the police. And now, this is about his glasses being broken? OMG that's absurd. That is NOT domestic abuse but then again, the DA in Colorado clearly has a hard on for Charlie. Trouble is, his past is hurting him no matter if he's changed...or not. Stating that someone has even been charged with domestic abuse or is a molester and people don't weigh facts. They come unhinged with emotion without looking at the matter any further.
