Why Did Oksana Grigorieva Tape Mel Gibson?
The Russian pianist Oksana Grigorieva has finally come out in open speaking about her sufferings and ill treatment by ex- beau Hollywood star Mel Gibson. After months of silence, Oksana has appeared on 'Larry King Live' show on CNN on Wednesday.
The 'Passion of the Christ' star Mel Gibson was alleged by his ex-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva that he has been beating, abusing and torturing her. The 40-year-old Oksana also provided audio tapes in support of her allegation. She has a one-year-old daughter named Lucia with Gibson and a son from actor Timothy Dalton.
Larry asked her why she taped Gibson and Oksana came with the revelation how she was tortured at the extreme level and even feared that she will die on that night when Mel showed his cruel side. Oksana said that on January
6, Gibson turned violent against her and hit her with fist, choked her as well as waved a gun at her.
As per the pianist, she was holding her baby Lucia when Mel attacked her. In fact, her 12-year-old son, Alexander, was a witness of this violent encounter.
Oksana said that she was very afraid that she will be killed by him so she taped this to leave as a proof for her mom. She wanted her mom to know who killed her. On the other hand, Gibson has accused Oksana of extortion.
Grigorieva said that Mel once said her that he had a dark side and he does want to show it to her because it could only spoil their life. She said that she never imagined that the men she loved so much will turn out to be a batterer. She also informed that Mel came to her next day asking for apology of his last night's act and cried in front of her. He said that he would get himself treated for it and she gave him a chance. However, Gibson again showed his dark side on February 18 and 19, which she taped. She said that Mel is ill and can't be termed a normal person. She was accompanied by her lawyer Martin Garbus on the Larry King's show.
Hope she gets justice if the things had gone really so bad for her.
