Gibson will be charged with either a felony or a misdemeanour.
If he’s convicted of a felony, Gibson could end up in a state prison for four years. However, is he’s found guilty of a misdemeanour, the actor might receive a 12-month term in a county jail.
“The District Attorney (DA) has a very strong case, there is a lot of information that the public and Mel Gibson are unaware that the DA has,” a source told Radar.
While Gibson has confessed in a written declaration that he slapped Grigorieva during an argument because she was hysterical, he denies hitting her.
