Brooke Mueller Arrested on Cocaine ChargesAlthough the third degree assault charge is a misdemeanor, Mueller could face up to six years in prison if convicted on felony drug charges, according to The Daily Mail.
“When someone is found to have more than a certain amount of the drug they are charged with intent to distribute”, an Aspen policewoman said.
Both Mueller and Sheen have had several stints in rehabilitation programs.
In an interview with ABC news in February, Sheen admitted that he “probably took more (drugs) than anybody could survive on.”
“I was banging seven-gram rocks and finishing them, because that's how I roll. I have one speed. I have one gear. Go,” Sheen said.
Two years ago in Aspen, Mueller decided to end her volatile marriage to the actor when he was arrested for assaulting her on Christmas day. Mueller claimed Sheen attacked her carrying a knife. Mueller and Sheen’s divorce became official in May 2011. She has been maintaining custody of the pair’s twin boys.
