Grigorieva may be charged over release of Gibson recordings

Oksana Grigorieva may face criminal extortion charges in relation to the released recordings of ex-partner Mel Gibson.

A Los Angeles County District Attorney has been presented with evidence about the case – relating to the guarantee she would not release the tapes which see Mel threaten her as part of a child custody agreement for their two-year-old daughter Lucia – and will now decide if the Russian-born singer will face official charges.
