Woman sues Charlie Sheen

NEW YORK (AP) — A woman found locked in the bathroom of actor Charlie Sheen’s Manhattan hotel suite last month said she’s suing the actor for battery and false imprisonment, and plans to file a criminal report with New York City police.

Capri Anderson appeared on ABC’s Good Morning America (GMA) on Monday. The adult-film actress said Sheen yelled racial slurs, threw a lamp at her and grabbed her by the throat.

The 45-year-old actor was briefly hospitalized after security at the Plaza Hotel reported he was disorderly and had broken furniture in his room. The Two and a Half Men star voluntarily went with authorities for a psychiatric evaluation. He was released from the hospital the same day. His publicist, Stan Rosenfield, said at the time that Sheen had an adverse reaction to medication.

Anderson told GMA host George Stephanopoulos that she had been hired for $3,500 to join Sheen for dinner on Oct. 25. She called “absolutely untrue” reports that she expected to be paid for sex.

She said Sheen became increasingly unruly as the evening wore on.

“It’s hard to say, being that it was my first time hanging out with him, if it was normal everyday behavior for him,” she said.

After dinner at a restaurant, she accompanied the “fairly intoxicated” Sheen back to his hotel suite, where “there was a little bit of romance, if you will.”

But in the room Sheen became increasingly agitated, including making racial slurs she didn’t specify.

He snorted “a white powdery substance,” she said.
