Mel Gibson Madness

Rumors have circulated that Mel Gibson would flee the country after much media buzz has been surrounding him after his ex girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva leaked tapes of Gibson screaming at her and threatening to burn down the house along with other hostile language.

Gibson will have to reconsider leaving the country and fleeing to his home town of Australia because he is now subject to a domestic violence investigation. Other reports have said this to be false, and that Gibson is not leaving the country and is focusing on work.

The evidence that Grigorieva has gathered against Gibson in regards to the recordings won’t change the direction of the case, because in the state of California live recordings are admissible in court unless the person is not told that they’re being recorded. Mel reportedly had no idea that he was being recorded.

Regardless of whether he was told or not that he was being recorded, he should be held accountable for his actions. Though the laws in California will dismiss the evidence I believe that Grigorieva shouldn’t stop there. There are also other reports of Gibson admitting on one of the tapes that he hit their child. If this were to be true, would the courts still dismiss that evidence?

When it comes to a child in any violent situation, I think there should be quick action taken to keep that child safe. There are still custody battles between Gibson and Grigorieva, but Gibson is still allowed visitation rights. It has been said that if you have power, money and fame that you could do anything and get away with anything. I hope this is not true in Mel Gibson's case, because he is clearly a disturbed man who needs medical and psychiatric evaluation.
