Jon Cryer's ex-wife allegedly wanted him dead, according to her ex-boyfriend. Sarah Trigger apparently told former lover Eddie Sanchez that she was going to kill the "Two and a Half Men" star and her estranged husband David Dickey.

According to documents filed in the custody battle between Cryer and Trigger, the ex-wife apparently claimed that Sanchez wanted to kill Cryer and Dickey. Her lawyer became so alarmed so she contacted the authorities for them.

The paper was obtained by TMZ.

But when Dickey confronted Sanchez on January 10, Sanchez "not only flatly denied making such a statement, but he said that it was [Sarah Trigger] who had contacted him on numerous occasions, stating that she wanted to see the pair [Cryer and Dickey] dead, and even asking Mr. Sanchez if he would kill the pair, or if he would not, inquiring whether she could speak with Mr. Sanchez's father about this issue."

In January, Cryer told police that he believed his life was in danger. His CBS sitcom had been filmed without live audience.

Trigger's attorney denies she has threatened anyone, telling TMZ, "Sarah has not threatened anyone, especially Jon and those are statements that are refuted and she has evidence to show that Mr. Sanchez has already recanted those statements to her."

Cryer has a son, Charlie, with Trigger. He is now married to entertainment journalist Lisa Joyner. icelebz
