Charlie Sheen is going to rehab, not jail

Charlie Sheen will not be going to jail – instead he’ll go to rehab.

After an altercation with estranged wife Brooke Mueller last Christmas, Charlie pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor assault charge.

As part of his plea deal, the felony charges were dropped. The judge will allow him to serve his 30 day sentence at a rehab clinic.

TMZ have reported that Charlie might not actually have to spend any time in rehab. Sources close to the case told the website that Sheen will get credit for time served, meaning he might check into rehab only to leave minutes later.
