Mel Gibson has reacted to the Hollywood pedophile scandal by saying that a "light is now being shone into a lot of dark places" and that people are finally taking down the Pedowood Elite.
The actor who spoke to Irish news radio, Newstalk, was in Dublin when he spoke about the recent allegations of high-profile Hollywood actors raping children.
He said: "I think a lot of light's being shined into a lot of dark places right now - and rightfully so."
"It's tragic in a sense, because a lot of the poor victims have to relive it. [It's] torturous for them - but they'll get free by re-examining it."
Gibson also was famously blacklisted Hollywood for saying "F---ing Jews ... the Jews are responsible for all the wars in the world."
Former child star Corey Feldman has also been "blacklisted" by Hollywood for a very different reason as he continues his quest to expose the elite Pedophile Ring that operates in the entertainment industry.

News talk reports: It comes amid allegations of sexual misconduct made against a number of high-profile celebrities in the wake of the allegations against producer Harvey Weinstein.
Speaking at the Dublin premiere of his new film Daddy's Home 2 last night, the star was asked by Newstalk Breakfast's Henry McKean about the current atmosphere in Hollywood.
Gibson said that he hopes there will be a positive outcome for victims of sexual harassment or assault who are now coming forward.
He said: "I think a lot of light's being shined into a lot of dark places right now - and rightfully so."It's tragic in a sense, because a lot of the poor victims have to relive it. [It's] torturous for them - but they'll get free by re-examining it."
Comeback
Gibson's career stalled in 2006 when he was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol, and was recorded making anti-Semitic remarks following the arrest.
After a half-decade off screens, Gibson has made a gradual comeback in recent years - culminating in several Oscar nominations, including Best Film and Best Director, for his most recent directorial effort Hacksaw Ridge.
Talking about his own comeback, he simply said: "You just don't stop breathing."
