Charlie Sheen is part of a court battle again, as ex-wife Denise Richards claims–via legal documents–that he not only threatened her, but their children, too.
E! News reports Richards has filed documents that say Charlie Sheen isn’t adhering to the terms of a trust he set up for their daughters. Denise Richards claims Sheen told her if she and the children moved into a home located next door to his, they wouldn’t be evicted.
Richards agreed, taking into consideration Charlie Sheen’s HIV-positive diagnosis, as well as his claim he wanted “repair his relationship with his children.”

Now she claims Charlie Sheen has become “hostile and aggressive” over the past few years, and even threatened to take away the children’s Christmas presents a couple of years back.
“I’m giving all your gifts including the air hockey table to the homeless,” he allegedly said, after which he began threatening to evict them.
This past September, Charlie Sheen allegedly moved Denise Richards and the children from their home, forcing Richards to rent a home for $15,000 per month. She is asking a judge to rule in her favor, and requests $1.2 million from Charlie Sheen so she can buy a new house.
Denise Richards also claims Charlie Sheen has sent scathing text messages to her as well as to the children. One sent to daughter Lola Rose Sheen reportedly said, “Have a merry Xmas with your loser f–k s–t mom … your dad is a rock star genius … your mom is a puss wart.”
“Denise is fighting for her children. This has nothing to do with her, the money is for her kids. This is about him providing for the children as he agreed to do,” a rep for Ricgards tells E! News.
Charlie Sheen’s lawyer, Marty Singer, claims otherwise. He tells E! News, “It is disappointing that Denise Richards always tries to use the children to get more money for HER. This has nothing to do with the extra gift that Charlie gave to his girls by establishing a trust. She has another $7 million home that was paid for from the money Charlie gave her and she wants Charlie to pay another $35,000/month for a second home and pay a down payment of $1.2 million.”
“$55,000/month tax free is not enough. This matter is simply money, money, money,” Singer adds.
Denise Richards not only dissed Charlie Sheen, she also took to Twitter to diss Marty Singer.
Marty Singer u being the trustee should support a mom fighting to keep it intact for the children. It's their money, not mine or your client

Is Charlie Sheen in hot water once again? Or is Denise Richards simply trying to get more money out of her ex-husband?
Neither Sheen nor Richards has proven to be a particularly upstanding parent. As in many cases like this one, the kids are the ones who lose out.
