Los Angeles ( CNN ) -- Charlie Sheen threatened to kill his estranged wife over the weekend , according to a declaration made in a restraining order against the actor . `` I will cut your head off , put it in a box and send it to your mom , '' Brooke Mueller claims that Sheen told her Sunday night . The revelations were in a court document that resulted in a court order that removed Charlie Sheen 's twin boys from his home . In an interview with NBC 's `` Today Show , '' Sheen denied that he threatened her . The quote against him was fabricated , he said , calling the allegation `` colorful . '' Mueller alleges Sheen was abusive to her and filed for a temporary restraining order and a custody order . `` I am in great fear that he will find me and attack me and I am in great fear for the children 's safety while in his care , '' Mueller wrote in her declaration . She added , I am very concerned that ( Sheen ) is currently insane . '' Sheen 's representatives had no response Wednesday to questions about Mueller 's claims . Mueller 's family members told CNN that Mueller went with an off-duty sheriff 's deputy and a nanny to get the 2-year-old boys . They said Sheen 's attorney spoke with Mueller 's attorney before Sheen handed over the children . But Sheen said he plans legal action to regain joint custody . `` You 're in my heart . Bob , Max , it 's your dada , '' he said to his sons on CNN affiliate KTLA . `` I have never lied to you , and this is another example of that . I will see you soon . You 're in my heart and I love you . '' Sheen said authorities arrived at his home Tuesday night . He said he remained calm and videotaped the entire episode . Mueller 's family members told CNN the sons were with Brooke Mueller , her mother and the children 's nanny . `` I think she is latching onto some of this recent press , '' Sheen said of his most recent troubles . CBS halted production of the sitcom `` Two and a Half Men , '' the show Sheen was starring in , after Sheen 's rant on a radio show last week . Sheen denied any anti-Semitic intent in the comments he made about his show 's co-creator , Chuck Lorre , whose real name , Sheen said , was Chaim Levine . `` I 've never had that in my past , '' he said . `` You can look as deep and as far as you want . '' But Abraham H. Foxman , the national director of the Anti-Defamation League , said in a statement last week , `` By invoking television producer Chuck Lorre 's Jewish name in the context of an angry tirade against him , Charlie Sheen left the impression that another reason for his dislike of Mr. Lorre is his Jewishness . This fact has no relevance to Mr. Sheen 's complaint or disagreement , and his words are at best bizarre , and at worst , borderline anti-Semitism . '' Sheen has reportedly demanded an apology from the Anti-Defamation League for Foxman 's comments . Warner Bros. Television said Tuesday it will pay `` Two and a Half Men 's '' crew for the four episodes initially set to begin production this week . Warner Bros. spokesman Paul McGuire confirmed the payments will be made . Warner Bros. Television is owned by Time Warner Inc. , the parent company of CNN . According to TMZ , the payments will amount to about $ 2 million for the 200 core crew members . On Monday , Sheen threatened during various interviews to sue CBS for halting production of the show . He also told NBC he wanted $ 3 million per episode instead of the $ 2 million he was previously making , but later backed off that assertion , telling CNN 's Piers Morgan that his only hard-and-fast demand was that he and the crew get paid for another eight weeks of work . He started a Twitter account Monday that had gained nearly 870,000 followers by Wednesday afternoon . `` My sons ' are fine , '' he said on Twitter . `` My path is now clear ... Defeat is not an option .. ! '' Sheen said he is determined to keep a public eye on what happens with his sitcom crew . `` I wanted to get everybody 's attention and throw the eyes of the world on this , and clearly my plan is working , '' he told KTLA . `` I 'm going to keep shaking the trees until I get the answers I need . '' CBS previously placed the sitcom on `` production hiatus '' after the actor began rehab treatments , and had planned to resume taping on four more episodes this week . It 's not clear if `` Two and Half Men '' will return for a ninth season . `` Everything is as it I stated at the beginning -- I am clean , focused and ready to get back to work , '' Sheen said .
They allegedly confronted him over the matter . Sheen tells NBC 's ` ` Today '' show he will try to get his sons back . His estranged wife filed a restraining order claiming that he was abusive . CBS halted production of his show last week .
