'Brook Mueller may want a chance to work things out with husband Charlie Sheen in the wake of her claims that he threatened her with a switchblade, but experts say the seriousness of her accusations may get prosecutors involved even without her cooperation.

Lawyers for the Hollywood couple have asked a judge to throw out a restraining order imposed shortly after Sheen was arrested on domestic violence charges Christmas Day, so that they can work on their relationship.

The restraining order, common in Colorado domestic violence cases, prevented Sheen from having contact with Mueller, possessing weapons or using drugs and alcohol.

But even if Mueller is willing to reconcile with Sheen, prosecutors may choose to proceed with a court case without Mueller's testimony, noted criminal defense attorney Roy Black told "Good Morning America."

"There's no question they can proceed without her cooperation ...because they can use her statements, her 911 call," Black said.'

... her husband's cooperation?

Well is there?

No. Not unless Hell freezes over. You can keep your nose to the ground as a sort of "nose-tip" thermometer, like something maybe out of a Dickens novel, but don't expect it to get quite that cold any time soon.

When it comes to domestic violence law it appears the taxpayer funded domestic violence trainers have brainwashed police, prosecutors and judges to ask themselves, "What Would Stalin Do?" Their behavior in alleged d.v. cases is the same as Stalin's behavior during his life.
