Charlie Sheen Sued for Sexual Assault by Dental Technician
This much we know: something weird went down when Charlie Sheen visited the dentist this week.
A couple days ago, the actor was accused of pulling out a knife after he flipped out once a gas mask was placed over his face. According to the dental technician on scene, Sheen was high on rock cocaine at the time.
Jeff Ballard, the star's Public Relations guru, admits that his client suffered a bad reaction to some prescription medicine and did flail his arms, knocking some stuff over in the process.
HOWEVER...
"The [knife] story is being made up by this woman who was fired on Friday for violating HIPAA by telling her son Charlie was in the office," adds Sheen's lawyer, Marty Singer. "It got back to Charlie and the dentist fired her."
Authorities appear to agree, saying to weapon of any kind was mentioned in the original incident report.
Now, though, that same dental technician (Margarita Palestino) alleges in a lawsuit, that Sheen came to her office last week for a procedure that required nitrous.
As she put the mask on him, she claims he tore it off, jumped out of the chair and yelled, "I'm going to f-cking kill you!"
Palestino also says Sheen grabbed her left breast and pulled her scrubs, then grabbed her bra strap and tried pulling it down. She's accusing him of sexual assault.
The technician is also sticking to the assertion that Sheen went after his dentist with a knife and says a member of his entourage offered her $500 for her trouble.
Says Singer in response:
"This is a ridiculous claim by an opportunist looking to make her 15 minutes of fame and my client is confident he will prevail in this absurd lawsuit."
