Mel Gibson charged with misdemeanor battery
Mel Gibson has been charged with a misdemeanor battery.
The actor, filmmaker and Academy Award-winner was charged Friday in the incident involving ex-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva, who is the mother of his youngest child.
His arraignment is scheduled later Friday. A misdemeanour is a lesser charge than a felony.
The altercation between Gibson, 55, and musician Grigorieva took place at his home in Malibu, California back in January 2010. The recordings of Gibson calling Grigorieva names were posted online creating a huge scandal.
Judge grants Mel Gibson more time with daughter Lucia

Sources report that during the hearing, the Judge explained that he felt this time increase would be what was best for the child in question.
The extra time awarded to Gibson isn’t much. In fact, according to recent reports the time increase only amounts to a few extra hours per week. Small as it may be, this seems to imply that the judge felt that Gibson was making positive steps, and that his behavior was improving enough to be given more time with his daughter. After this whole ordeal, any signs of behavioral improvement are good signs. Given this awarded time increase, Gibson will reportedly raked in enough hours to equate to seeing his daughter Lucinda for one day per week. Continue reading »

I heard firsthand the pleas from the Cuban people for Elian to be returned home to his father, and I saw their protests in the streets.
