Hollywood Icon Who's A Trump Pal To Get His Guns Rights Restored: Report
HuffPost
The actor lost his right to own a firearm in 2011 following a domestic violence case.
Mel Gibson is getting his gun rights restored after losing them in a 2011 domestic violence case, The New York Times reported Thursday.
Attorney General Pam Bondi approved the move, in-the-know sources told the newspaper. Controversy had previously bubbled over alleged pressure on a Justice Department pardon attorney who had refused to recommend that Gibson have his right to own firearms reinstated.
Elizabeth G. Oyer said last month she was told by her superiors to make the recommendation because of Gibson’s “personal relationship” with Trump but held her ground over concerns about the Oscar winner’s volatile past. That’s why she got fired, she said.
A Justice Department official denied her account in a previous Times report.
Gibson, who was recently named a “special envoy” to Hollywood by Trump, pleaded no contest to misdemeanor battery against a girlfriend in 2011. He also threatened to brain her with a baseball bat and plant her in a rose garden during a recorded conversation.
