Radaronline.com has text messages that Mel Gibson sent Oksana Grigorieva on January 7, the day after he allegedly punched, choked and threatened to kill her.
In the texts Mel all but admits he was violent with Oksana. She was holding their baby, Lucia, when she claims he hit him, and her 12-year-old son, Sascha, was in the room.
"Oksana, I wasn't safe for you last night," Mel texted at 3:25 pm the following day.
"I spent two hours with a therapist today and have regained some perspective," he continued. "What I'm telling you know is I am safe & would like to come by and make amends to you, Sascha and Lucia. I won't stay, just let you say your peace and I'll say mine."
Last week Radar released a photo of Oksana post-fight. Her two front veneers appeared damaged, but her dentist questioned the photo's veracity and whether the damage was self-inflicted.
X-rays Oksana had taken two days after the incident will be critical to proving domestic violence, TMZ reports. For some reason she got the x-rays at the office of a pediatrician, and not her children's doctor.
Oksana claims she told both the dentist and the pediatrician she had been hit but "refused" to say who hit her. The dentist says she told him it was Mel but wanted to protect him.
The January 6 fight is not the only time Oksana says Mel was violent. She told authorities that he smashed a chair through a glass door in December 2009, a source tells Radar.
"She said he was literally foaming at the mouth," the source said. "Oksana was frightened and on the bed holding Lucia, who was one-month-old at the time. She told authorities she tried to cover the baby's head because she was scared as Mel was losing it. Mel grabbed a chair and slammed it into a glass door, which shattered, according to Oksana."
Oksana's mother and one of Mel's sons reportedly witnessed the shattered glass after the incident.
Oksana is currently being investigated for extortion.
