Now Oksana Grigorieva, Mel Gibson's former girlfriend, is speaking out about their relationship – and her claims that Gibson was abusive to her.In a wide-ranging interview with PEOPLE, Grigorieva, 40, talks in detail about the argument during which she says Gibson, 54, hit her while she was holding their baby, Lucia.
"I thought he would kill me,” says Grigorieva. (Gibson, who declined to comment for this story, has disputed her account and a source close to him has said he intervened when she was shaking the baby.)
The Russian-born musician says Gibson often flew into jealous rages, talked about suicide and once brandished a gun in front of her.
She also discusses why she decided to tape Gibson's angry phone calls. "I needed to document his threats," says Grigorieva, who denies she leaked the tapes. She also refutes Gibson's claim that she used the tapes to extort him.
"I'm not angry at him," she says. "For the sake of Lucia, I really want him to be well. He has to have the courage to be responsible for what he's done."

For the most part, it's a pretty standard answer to a patent complaint: Google says Android doesn't infringe any of Oracle's patents, and even if it does, those patents are invalid and / or unenforceable for a variety of reasons anyway, so, you know, shove it.
