Charlie Sheen Reveals Mexican Cartel Cut Cocaine Supply Over Consumption Suspicions

Charlie Sheen recently revealed in an interview on Australia's 60 Minutes that a Mexican drug cartel cut him off from purchasing cocaine due to the unusually large quantities he was acquiring, which led them to suspect he was dealing drugs rather than consuming them personally. Sheen described the amount as unprecedented, explaining that the cartel only delivered such weight to dealers, and jokingly recalled smoking large "seven-gram rocks" of crack cocaine. His candid disclosure was part of a broader discussion about his struggles with addiction, which had public consequences including his 2011 firing from Two and a Half Men. Sheen credited his daughter Sami with helping him achieve sobriety in 2017 after decades of substance abuse. Despite the severity of his past, Sheen maintains a sense of humor about his experiences and has taken control of his narrative through his memoir, The Book of Sheen, and a Netflix documentary. He also revealed that openly sharing his past was a strategic move to prevent potential blackmail by "taking the bullets out of some guns still pointed in his direction."
