If Oksana Grigorieva is, indeed, behind the mysterious “leak” of all the damning pieces of evidence in the Mel Gibson domestic violence case, she’s definitely out to destroy his public image completely. Radar Online, the same media outlet that brought to light all those horrendous tapes and photographic evidence of the injuries Oksana sustained at the hands of her now-ex, now has further proof of Mel’s incendiary temper and abusive ways.

This time, though, it’s not a recording we’re talking about. Apparently, besides the tapes Oksana made as Mel continued to call her and hurl abuse at her for evils he imaged she’d done to him, he also sent her countless emails and text messages. Some of these have now emerged online and, just like the evidence previously released, they too show a side of Gibson that few of his fans could even suspect. In fact, he even tells Oksana in one text message that he’s literally “drowning in pure rage,” and even makes what Radar thinks is a veiled threat at her.

“Mel Gibson sent several threatening emails to Oksana Grigorieva and those emails are now part of the investigation into his actions, a source familiar with the situation tells Radar Online exclusively. Radar Online has exclusively obtained the wording of several of Mel’s scary emails, which help explain why Oksana has constantly insisted that Mel needs help. On February 18 Mel and Oksana’s relationship imploded after he accused her of smiling at a worker during a tree-planting ceremony honoring their daughter Lucia. Mel made approximately 30 phone calls to Oksana that night and she recorded some of them,” Radar writes.

“During the hours after their Feb. 18 blowup, Mel texted: ‘Your goddamn mailbox is full! Hear you are at Sherman Oaks.’ ‘Safe is best!’ ‘I’m drowning in self doubt and depression. And pure rage.’ ‘I’m just not digging it. Every minute like an agonized eternity. [Expletive].’ It’s typical Mel, said the source, and the ‘Safe is best’ line was definitely interpreted as a threat by Oksana,” the same media outlet further says.

According to the source cited above, Oksana left the Malibu house she shared with Mel after the fight and went to the one in Sherman Oaks. Enraged that she’d left, he tried to make her come back by being verbally aggressive. Oksana, though, would not even consider returning to continue the “discussion” because she was afraid for her and her daughter’s safety, which is why she made the tapes in the first place, the tipster explains.
