These radically groundless and unfounded allegations end now. I now take a passionate stand against those who wish to even entertain the sick and twisted lies against me. GAME OVER.”
Haim’s mother, Judy, went on The Dr. Oz Show and claimed that Brascia was the one who abused her child. “When my son was 13, he’s not gonna go and ask Charlie Sheen to go and sleep with him,” she said, per The Wrap. “I have to tell you that this guy Dominick is the guy that abused my son.

But I didn’t feel like giving that clown that much more credit. We were friends back in a day or so I thought. It’s a piece of vile fiction. The guy’s mom came out and said this is impossible.”
aka Charlie Sheen director Andrew Renzi also touched upon the allegations in an interview with Netflix’s Tudum. “There were questions around the credibility of this. I knew it was important to address because we wanted to be open about it. Corey’s version is in his doc. And Corey Haim’s mother disputed the claim. She said, ‘It didn’t happen.’ ”
