Child Star Corey Feldman Accuses Actor Charlie Sheen of Child Abuse

Former child star Corey Feldman has named actor Charlie Sheen for allegedly sexually assaulting close friend and former child actor, the late Corey Haim, while they worked as on the 1985 film Lucas.

Feldman who had long spoken of a “Hollywood Paedophile ring” alleged Sheen had raped Haim during the premiere of his documentary, My Truth: The Rape of 2 Coreys.

On March 10 2010, Haim passed away from pneumonia, a complication from a drug addiction that stemmed from his teenage years. He was just 38-years-old.

Premiering the documentary on the tenth anniversary of Haim’s death, Feldman, who had roles in Stand By Me (1986) and The Goonies (1985)experienced several technical issues due to hackers blocking a live-streaming of the film, however, audience members at the physical premiere were still able to watch it in full.

Journalist Amy Kaufman from the LA Times who attended the premiere confirmed the alleged abuser in a Tweet.

“In #MYTRUTHDOC, @Corey_Feldman alleges that Corey Haim told him he was raped by Charlie Sheen on the 1985 set of “Lucas.” Sheen has denied this claim previously and does not issue a new denial in the film,” she wrote.

Overnight, Sheen released a statement via his publicist denying the accusations.

“These sick, twisted and outlandish allegations never occurred. Period. I would urge everyone to consider the source and read what his mother Judy Haim has to say,” his statement read.

Feldman also made allegations against five other Hollywood figures, three of which had previously been accused of sexual abuse.

The alleged abusers included Jon Grissom, his former assistant, the owner of Soda Pop Club (an 80s nightclub for underage child actors) Alphy Hoffman, and former talent manager Marty Weiss.

In addition, he also named casting director Bobby Hoffman, and the late Dominick Brascia, who died in 2018.

Before the documentary was released, Feldman appeared on Wendy Williams, saying that he and Haim “had both been molested as children.”

“He was raped physically. I was raped emotionally. I was molested,” he said. “I am saying every name that affected … our lives and we have victims talking about their experiences.”

Before adding: “The one main name that everyone is waiting to hear … It is a name that everybody on the planet knows.”

Two years prior to his death, Haim recounted an instance of sexual abuse with People.

“I was very, very awake and very ashamed of what was going on,” Haim said.

“I was just … coming into Hollywood, man, [I was] just a horny little kid, like on drugs, getting fed drugs, man, by vampires.

“I still blame myself to an extent, but my conscience is much, much more clear. I have come to terms with this a long time ago but obviously not [totally].

“Stuff happens when you are a kid, it scars you inside for life.”

Feldman said that he was compelled to make the film for his “best friend”, with it being released a day before what would have been his 48th birthday.

In another interview with Jesse Watters on Fox News Watters’ World, the star detailed how he had tried to tell the truth “for decades” and had previously spoken about the alleged abuse in his autobiography Coreyography: A Memoir, however, at the request of his publishers, had to conceal the identity of the accused.

“When I went to print, even though I wrote down everything as it happened and with the names included in the book, the publishers, attorneys, and insurance people didn’t like the fact we were being so honest and asked us to change the names,” Feldman told the host.

According to Feldman, he also “went to the police back in 1993,” however, at the time, they “didn’t care” and “buried” the information.

Speaking with NBC4 California, Feldman said that the process of creating the film had not only been “cathartic” but “highly stressful”.

“The one name that is the most dangerous, the one I’m most scared about – it’s going to be like Harvey Weinstein all over again,” he told the outlet.
