Mel Gibson Charged with Crime

The L.A. County District Attorney has just filed a single misdemeanor battery charge against Mel Gibson.

Mel Gibson Charged
The misdemeanor specifically targets someone who either cohabits or has a child with the alleged victim.

TMZ broke the story, Mel will plead no contest today to the charge and will not receive jail time ... but will undergo continued counseling.

The no contest plea is not an admission of guilt.

Mel must appear in court today for the arraignment and the plea, which will take place at 1:30 PM PT ... which TMZ will broadcast live.

That's just bull****! I think they both share the blame! They both should've been charged with something... And SHE is no saint! I think she is as evil as she looks and is as ugly on the inside as she is on the outside. I hope she rots!!

Shake my baby and you'll get more than slap. Gibson was justified in protecting his child.

It was a "He said, She said" case.

He said: "I had to slap her...she was shaking the baby!"

She said: "I had to get slapped...I was being a B*TCH!"
