Charlien Sheen Pleads Guilty, No Jail For Brooke Mueller Assault

The "Two and a Half Men" actor pleaded guilty Monday to misdemeanor third-degree assault in exchange for prosecutors dropping two other more serious charges, including a felony charge of menacing. He was sentenced to 30 days in a rehabilitation center, 30 days of probation and 36 hours of anger management.

The charges stem from a Christmas Day 2009 dispute with his wife, Brooke Mueller, after which she told police that he'd threatened to kill her after she said she wanted a divorce and straddled her on a bed with one hand on her neck and the other hand holding a knife. He told police they'd argued, but he denied threatening her.
