Mel and Oksana's Never-Ending Drama

In the wake of the notorious taped conversations between a violent, profanity-spewing Mel Gibson and his ex-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva, another issue has come to the surface.

Grigorieva is claiming that Gibson actually physically abused her 12-year-old son back in 2009 during a party, though Mel’s lawyers say otherwise.

Oksana says her son Alexander was jumping up and down, trying to knock a cigarette out of Gibson’s mouth when the “Lethal Weapon” actor grabbed him and threw him onto a table.

But Gibson’s people say they have multiple witnesses from the party who dispute Oksana’s recollection of the events. They say he was playing around with the boy and no one got angry or hurt.
