Oksana Grigorieva has claimed that Timothy Dalton was willing to testify in her alleged domestic violence case against Mel Gibson.
But few people know story behind why Oksana Grigorieva is making this claim, and how Oksana’s (false) domestic violence claims against Mel Gibson are a repeat of the domestic violence claims she also made against Timothy Dalton at one time.
Oksana’s attempts to involve Timothy Dalton in her legal battle with Mel Gibson raises some very important questions in view of all that has transpired in the Mel Gibson - Oksana Grigorieva legal drama since Oksana first made that claim.
- Is this true, or was this ever true – that Timothy Dalton, ( the father of Oksana’s teenage son) was willing to testify against Mel Gibson?
- If it was true in June 2010, is it still true now, given the fact that Dalton gives the appearance of trying to distance himself from all the drama surrounding the Mel- Oksana legal battle, and Oksana’s numerous, and well-documented lies?
In an e-mail from Oksana Grigorieva to Eric George shown on RadarOnline’s website, Oksana outlines a long list of “evidence” she spent a couple of weeks assembling in order to build (and hopefully prove) a domestic violence case against Mel Gibson – all of which was done after the fact.
Oksana Wanted Dalton to Testify So She Could get a Better Deal
In this list of so-called "evidence," Oksana claims that Timothy Dalton, and her facialist, Mady, would testify to seeing a bruise on her eye.
But Oksana’s claim raises some additional questions:
- First of all, is Oksana referring to the same bruise depicted in the photos shown on RadarOnline, which were deemed by experts to have been doctored or “photoshopped”?
- Why didn’t Lucia’s pediatrician see these alleged “bruises” when Oksana took baby Lucia in for a routine exam the day after the alleged domestic violence occurred? NOTE: Dr. Nussbaum has already filed an affidavit with the court stating that she observed no injuries to Oksana, or to baby Lucia, (whom Oksana claimed was also injured in the alleged domestic violence incident) Oksana’s photos of the alleged injury to baby Lucia were also deemed by experts to be fake.
- Why didn’t Oksana’s dentist, Dr Shelden, see this alleged bruise on Oksana’s eye when she went to him to have her damaged veneers ( documented and ) repaired? And why do the dentist’s photos show no evidence of such a bruise?
Oksana’s intent was to get Eric George, the attorney who negotiated her $15 million deal witl Mel Gibson, to reopen the negotiations so she could use the concocted “evidence” to hit Mel up for even more. See 15 Million Was Not Enough for Gold Digger Oksana Grigorieva
But Eric George refused to bite. He may have sensed that there was something fishy about this wealth of “evidence” against Mel Gibson, which suddenly appeared, and decided to back off. See The GENEROUS Financial Offer Oksana Reneged on in Hopes of Extorting Mel Gibson for More
Oksana’s Hastily Concocted Domestic Violence Case
During George’s negotiations on Oksana’s behalf, Oksana never mentioned anything about domestic violence at the hands of Mel Gibson (which she alleges happened in January 2010) until 6 months later when others told her that if any domestic violence had been involved, she could have gotten far more than $15 million from Mel.
So Oksana proceeded to build a domestic violence case against Mel. Oksana confided in her ex-bodyguard, Kris Herzog, that she was going after “Tiger Woods money.”
On the basis of Oksana’s newly developed (false) evidence of domestic violence from Mel Gibson, she tried to get Eric George to reopen the negotiations. But George decided to give it a pass. Oksana and Mel had already signed the $15 million deal George negotiated, so his job was done. See Oksana Grigorieva Being Sued by Her Own Lawyer in the Mel Gibson Case
It may also have occurred to George at this point, that Oksana was trying to run a scam, and he did not want to be involved. See Is Mel Gibson Guilty of Domestic Violence? Before You Say Yes, Check the Facts
This may have prompted Oksana Grigorieva to take matters into her own hands. See Oksana Grigorieva’s $10 million Extortion Plot against Mel Gibson Backfires
Oksana Accused Timothy Dalton of Domestic Violence Like She Accused Mel
Oksana once accused Timothy Dalton of the same type of domestic violence of which she is now accusing Mel Gibson.
In October 2010, TMZ reported that the L.A. County Sheriff's Departmenthad in its possession an e-mail Oksana sent Mel accusing Timothy Dalton of physically abusing her.
Oksana made these claims of domestic violence against Timothy Dalton around the same time she complained to Mel Gibson that Dalton was not her paying enough child support for their teenage son.
NOTE: Dalton pays Oksana $2500 in monthly child support for his Alexander, his 14 year old son, in contrast to the $20,000 monthly child support Oksana receives from Mel for baby Lucia. See Was It FAIR to Increase Mel Gibson’s Child Support to Oksana to $20,000 a Month? and The TRUTH about Mel Gibson’s Child Support and How Much He REALLY Pays Oksana
Obviously this was something Oksana had done before, with favorable results. So she decided to try it again.
Undoubtedly, Mel Gibson’s lawyers will not hesitate to use Oksana’s email to point out the fact that Oksana made up domestic violence claims against Timothy Dalton, when she wanted more child support money from him, the same way she suddenly came forward with domestic violence charges against Mel Gibson.
TMZ reported that as far as they could ascertain, Oksana never lodged a formal domestic violence complaint against Dalton, or presented any evidence of abuse on Dalton's part. (It’s highly possible that unlike Mel Gibson, Timothy Dalton caved in to Oksana’s demands before things reached that point. )
Dalton's Tap Dancing Around the Issue of Domestic Violence Raises Suspicions
Upon learning of the existence of Oksana’s incriminating e-mail to Mel Gibson about Timothy Dalton domestic violence, TMZ called Dalton for comment.
Dalton , who never personally made a statement, called Oksana's lawyer, Daniel Horowitz. Horowitz made the following statement, supposedly on Dalton’s behalf.
"Dalton said that he spoke with Oksana and they both agreed that anyone claiming there was abusiveness in the relationship is a liar and it is a complete fabrication."
Again several questions are raised:
- Why was it necessary for Timothy Dalton to consult Oksana’s lawyer before making a comment? Was it because Dalton was well-acquainted with Oksana’s propensity for telling lies, and wanted to make sure his story matched hers, so as not to embarrass himself?
- Why the particular wording in Horowitz’s statement “he spoke with Oksana, and they both agreed?” It sounds suspiciously like they all collaborated on what Dalton should (or shouldn’t) say.
- Why would Horowitz make the above statement, given the fact that the L.A. County Sheriff's Department already had an e-mail in its possession that contradicted what he, Dalton, and Oksana said? Was Horowitz unaware of this incriminating e-mail? Did Oksana forget, or simply not bother to tell Horowitz that she’d once made these claims in an e-mail to Mel?
Horowitz really put himself, his reputation and his credibility on the line by making the following comment regarding Oksana telling Mel Gibson and his lawyers that Dalton was abusive to her.
Horowitz said,
"That is a complete lie. I challenge anyone making this claim to show their face. This is an attack on Oksana and Tim's son, because this is going to hurt him by false allegations that his father is a loser the way Mel Gibson is a loser. Tim Dalton is not Mel Gibson. He's a fine human being."
NOTE: In Horowitz’s defense, he had just signed on with Oksana as one of her ever changing roster of lawyers – she’s had 40+, so far. See Oksana is Toxic - Another Lawyer Quits at the Worst Possible Time So Horowitz may not have known yet, of his client’s reputation for riding roughshod over the truth, misrepresenting facts, and telling outright, and boldfaced lies.
Dalton, for his part, has kept a low profile throughout the whole Mel Gibson – Oksana Grigorieva legal battle – which puzzles many onlookers who feel that Dalton should step in and remove Alexander, his teenage son, from this toxic environment.
Some speculate that Dalton is probably trying stay out of Oksana’s line of fire, having seen the viciousness of her smear campaign against Mel Gibson. See Oksana More Interested in Badmouthing Mel Gibson than in Custody of Baby Lucia
Oksana is Caught in Another Lie
In a statement to TMZ Oksana said,
"Tim is a wonderful father. We have a great relationship. Any implication that he ever struck me is untrue. "
Either way you look at it, the statement above proves (once again) that Oksana is a liar. See Sifting Through Oksana Grigorieva’s Domestic Violence Lies
Either Oksana lied to TMZ when she said Timothy Dalton never struck her. Or she lied to Mel Gibson and his lawyers about Timothy Dalton, when she said he physically abused her.
Which is it? We’ll probably never know. See 11 Must-Read Articles about Mel and Oksana for those who Want to Know the TRUTH
Given the above information, how likely is it, with all that has transpired since then, that Timothy Dalton will actually testify against Mel Gibson if the domestic violence case goes to court?
If Dalton does testify, given the fact that in the past he had to consult with Oksana and her attorney before commenting so they could tell him what to say, how likely is it that any testimony from Dalton will actually be believed?

This article is incredible BS.It´s so obvious that you are paid by Gibson.Is there any proof that this mystery e-mail about TD´s "abuse" really exist? No.It´s only lie from Team Lunatic which was made to question Oksana´s credibility.
TMZ has the email. And if you doubt it's validity, then you need to cast doubts on all the "emails" Oksana keeps spewing out to the gossip sites as well.
Would it be any surprise that Osaka's own lawyer was a domestic abuser? Of course, he managed to keep that quiet.
Great article !!!
What no one is writing about is the fact that even before Oksana left her dirt poor surroundings in Mother Russia behind her, she told friends she would one day meet and marry Tim Dalton—after which Oksana used a handful of men, young and old, to get her out of the Ukraine and then within striking distance of Dalton.
She manages to bed Dalton, and immediately gets pregnant. It’s a miracle! She demands that Dalton marry her. Dalton says sure Honey, just sign this prenup darling. Oksana then splits for greener pastures.
She manages to meet another even richer and more famous actor--Gibson--and another miracle! She gets pregnant again!
What a coincidence! The only two rich and famous men she sleeps with--out of the scores of men she has bedded--are the only two men she became pregnant by.
Only this time Oksana decides she needs "insurance" when she tries to get Mel to pay her off. She is not going to settle for mere child support THIS time.
Why did she renege on the $15,000,000 deal?
She heard about Gibson's wife’s reported settlement of $600 million, got greedy, and overplayed her hand.
This woman was a Russian grifter with big dreams long before she came to the UK and then the US to ply her pregnancy and extortion scams.
This liar may not go to jail (this time) but there is no doubt in my mind that is exactly where she belongs.
Thank you Ms. Houson for another outstanding article. Your thoughts are far more organized and logical than anything else reported in the media. DV victims praise you for speaking the truth and you are in our hearts.
Thank you Ruth for telling it like it is!
She should be charged , jailed and deported and Mel Gibson given full custody of his daughter!
Houstons article is full of lies,half truths and strange speculations.Either Houston is delusional and her logic sucks [ what is typical for Gibson fanatic supporters} or she is member of Gibson camp and Gibson pays her.
The only lies, half truths and strange speculations in this article are the parts that deal with the words coming out of Oksana's mouth. She seems incapable of speaking the truth and one does not have to be a Mel Gibson supporter to see that she is a liar and a user and from her long history has been one her entire life;.
It is amazing that over 90% of the public are supportive of Mel and are you accusing the masses of being all delusional? Isn't it more reasonable to believe the <10% are the ones delusional just like you who accuse Ms. Houston of being paid by Mel?! lol...that is funny...according to people like you, Mel is now paying 90% of the world to believe him! just too funny!
To Ginger: TMZ has only email where Oksana stated that Dalton yelled at her.And he had reason to yell because Oksana´s ex-boyfriend was/is well-known bigot, unstable man and he was potentially dangerous to his son.She didn´t write that Dalton hit her or something like that.If Tmz has the e-mail in which Oksana clearly claims that father of her son was abusive why they didn´produce it to public? TMZ posters are so desperate to believe anyhing what is pro-Gibson even it´s clear that it is nonsense. Why isn´t Harvey producing the proof? Why?Because this email doesn´t exist.
Now this is great, well researched, and rationalized journalism. Thanks Ruth for sifting through all the BS!
Re “anonymous”:
Your lack of pronouns made me suspicious that you might be Oksana, but then realized your spelling was too good. Oksana is a scam artist just one step up from Bonnie Lee Blakely. She contradicts herself left and right. She has fabricated evidence. I am in the “deport the extortion artist” camp.
I has followed this story for very long time.Read e-mails,documents,claims of witnesess etc.There still is no obvoius evidence that Oksana extorted him.I see custody negotiations of a wealthy couple and not extortion.Oksana is probably goldigger and not very pleasant person,but Mel is no saint,too.They deserves each other,but it is shame that Timothy Dalton was dragged to this mess, which they created.He has always had a very solid reputation and it is terrible that his good name was dragged through the mud,cuz these two morons want to destroy each other.Feel so sorry for their children,too.
There has never been any evidence that Dalton was violent toward Oksana nor evidence that she ever accused him of being violent. It's clear that he only wants minimal involvement in this soap opera and probably consulted the lawyer and the ex to find out what the hell was going on, then made a brief statement. TMZ made a fake statement and never produced any evidence.
About the only thing her lawyer has done right was challenge anyone one to come forward with evidence. No one did. Did you forget?
All that matters is the evidence the court has not what pieces of manipulative crap the tabloids show it's hungry readers. Please stop reporting tabloid sources as fact.
It's hard for one parent to get custody away from the other unless the other parent themselves is violent. Maybe he warned her and that's what his yelling was about. She was dating a well known trainwreck after all. As someone mentioned on another board, Oksana was never a full time parent, she only has the boy parttime. But we have no idea what Dalton did behind the scenes.
The toxic sitz is that Mel is dangerous. Deal. Oksana is dangerous precisely because of her connection to toxic men like Mel and that pathological lier Herzog with a rap sheet that goes clear across the country. Part of his rap is making false statements.
You need to look at the facts. Your twisting things to seem illogical or suspicious when they're not and ignoring strong evidence staring you in the face.
FactFinder, you must change your name to halffactfinder for your infos are mostly wrong.
It is obvious you are not privy to many facts Ms. Houston has cited nor half of the facts that have been researched by many.
i would encourage you to do more digging to get the truths, the full truth rather than the half-@zz job you have done in this matter!
Sorry but Houston has done NO research of her own. She only has second hand tabloid info. That's it. And her opinion is based on nothing more than how THEY skewed the story. She didn't even know (or pretended she didn't) that NO evidence was ever produced that Oksana ever said TD was violent cripes sake. She's even discussing photos the tabloid has when all that counts is what the court has, when their experts have long determined whether or not any evidence was tampered with. She's just playing the same game as the tabloid, disregarding the tapes and emails from the next day and convoluting and twisting every thing else to fit your desperate need to believe (that in this case) Gibson is no worse than Dalton or most any other man when clearly he's unhinged.
I completely agree with Diane's words. The only person in this dirty story that I'm so sorry for is Timothy Dalton. I'm so sorry that after having waited for so many years for a woman of his dreams he met a dirty grifter. Her nationality is not important, grifters, morons and witches with angel faces can be of any nationality. She is a predator hunting for wealthy men, and, that's a big pity that such a noble man as Timothy fall into her trap. I guess, she has never loved him, because really loving woman would never betray her beloved and is never unfaithful towards him.
People, can you see? He helps her even now after all. Because she's a mother of his child. I don't have enough words to express and describe his great and noble soul. We are always with you, Mr.Dalton. If you ever read these comments, please know that our love to you will never end.
