The eight-minute recording posted Monday by RadarOnline.com is purportedly a phone argument between Gibson and then-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva. A voice sounding distinctively like the Academy Award-winner is heard telling Grigorieva that she "deserved" to be hit after she chastised him for allegedly punching her in the face and breaking two of her teeth.
"What kind of a man is that?" she is heard saying. "Hitting a woman when she's holding a child in her hands? Breaking her teeth twice in the face! What kind of man is that?"
"Oh, you're all angry now!" Gibson responds. "You know what, you ... (expletive deleted) deserved it!"
Alan Nierob, a spokesman for Gibson, declined comment on the tape.
The former couple have been locked in a bitter custody dispute in Los Angeles. The 40-year-old singer has accused Gibson of domestic violence, and sheriff's officials have launched an investigation.
Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department spokesman Steve Whitmore would not say directly whether the recordings released by RadarOnline would become part of the investigation, but he said any potential evidence would be thoroughly reviewed and considered.
"Everything is part of the investigation," he said. "Anything that is connected to the case we will investigate."
He said there was no timeframe for the inquiry into Gibson to be concluded. "The larger the volume, the longer it will take," Whitmore said.
After detectives conclude their work, the case will be turned over to the Los Angeles County District Attorney's office, which will decide whether to pursue criminal charges.
Last week, a recording posted by RadarOnline.com included segments it said was Gibson telling Grigorieva that she was dressing too provocatively and that it would be her fault if she were raped. He used the N-word at one point.
Another tape Mel?? We're getting pretty sick of the exploits of a petty, ego-maniacal tyrant. Give us all a break and shut up.....and don't hit women.
Mad Mel Gibson...you sorry old fart-ass low class S.O.B.
ReplyDeleteI stayed up last night til 2:am to listen to your sorry ass on 'ET' and you are really disgusting piece of shit.
You threaten to burn the house down with Oksana in it, and you should know your baby was with her mama.
You told her you left your wife for her...fool, did she hold a gun at your head???
Mad Mel...do you think you are the first old fool Oksana took to the cleaners......NOoooooo.
Now... now all four 'Lethal Weapons' have made millions of dollars and guess what your main co-star was black and as I hear it, Danny Glover is not to please with you and threatens to beat your ass anywhere he see you and guess what, Danny is not a woman and I bet you will be the one to get your teeth knocked out.
Yes, I agree with all the studios/producers and directors, you have definitely screwed up your career big time. You are too hot to handle and they are not going to throw money at a lost cause.
Mad Mel, you can take that to the cleaners, because it will be a long time before you can take a big pay-check to the bank ever again.
Jodie Foster can find her someone else to star in her movie 'Badger,' there are a lot of actors out there ...Jodie may even find a black one to replace you with.
Now that would be a kick in the head or should I say a kick in your ass.
But hey, it's just me and that's the way I roll...keeping it real .
Great rant PIC. Just what I like to hear. Give him hell.
