Former Oksana Grigorieva Bodyguard: Team Mel All the Way!

Former Oksana Grigorieva Bodyguard: Team Mel All the Way!

Oksana Grigorieva's ex-bodyguard Kristian Herzog has had some rough things to say about Mel Gibson in the past ... like how Mel wanted him dead.

Now, though, the guy who likely knows the most about Oksana Grigorieva's claims against Mel Gibson says she's exaggerating or downright lying about violence.

Herzog, who served as her bodyguard until recently, and who may or may not have nailed Oksana Grigorieva, says she admitted to him Mel never punched her.

Oksana is a manipulative liar trying to bilk Mel, says Kristian.

Rather, Herzog says Oksana Grigorieva told him Mel Gibson slapped her. That's it. Gibson admits slapping Oksana Grigorieva, claiming he was trying to protect daughter Lucia.

Herzog, who's been subpoenaed by Mel's lawyers in the couple's custody fight, also says she had a motive for secretly recording Mel Gibson rants.

That motive, simply, was "to pressure Mel Gibson to pay her money."



Grigorieva reached a $15 million settlement with Mel Gibson, but then backed out at the last minute. Soon after, the tapes leaked online, one after another.

Oksana Grigorieva, who claims she recorded Mel Gibson because she feared for her life, is being investigated by the L.A. County Sheriff's Department for extortion.

Who knows if Kristian is the least bit reliable, but it's interesting that he's come out against Oksana Grigorieva with such damning claims. Makes you think ...
