Police Investigating Mel Gibson For Domestic Violence After Oksana Filed Complaint
July 8 2010, Published 6:13 a.m. ET
After RadarOnline.com revealed Mel Gibson told his ex-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva she "f--cking deserved" to get hit, the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department has launched a domestic violence investigation after Oksana filed a complaint.
The investigation started on Monday when the victim made a complaint, L.A. County Sheriff spokesperson Steve Whitmore told RadarOnline.com. In the new tape recording, a teary Grigorieva can be heard asking the 54-year-old actor what he thinks he is doing hitting her while she is holding their eight-month-old child Lucia.
The allegations stem from a January incident at the actor’s Malibu mansion.
"What kind of man is that who would hit a woman while she is holding a child in her hands, hitting her twice in the face?” questions the Russian musician.
The Braveheart star answers: "You know what -- you f***ing deserved it."
Now the Sheriff's Dept. has confirmed its investigators are "currently gathering information regarding the allegations."
