Details emerge on Jett Travolta's death

John Travolta, Kelly Preston and their children Jett and Ella Bleu, leave an airport in Rome.

John Travolta's lawyers -- who are close family friends -- reveal that Jett may have died in his father's arms Friday.

Us: How is John doing?

-snip- "John and Kelly are suffering total misery. They were so close to their son. This is hard to accept.

-snip-

Us: Have John and Kelly spent time with anyone since everyone arrived?

Ossi and McDermott: "John and Kelly have been pretty much locked away.

"We are staying here until John leaves. The autopsy should be on Monday.

-snip-

Us: It's been reported that Jett was left alone for several hours before being discovered. Can you clarify the timeline?

Ossi and McDermott: "Jett was not left alone. He had a nanny present at all times. The nanny was sleeping close to Jett's room. There was a baby monitor, a chime on the door so it was known when Jett was going in and out. He was completely supervised. The nanny found him.

Us: Is it true that Jett died in John's arms?

Ossi and McDermott: "Jett may have still been alive when John administered CPR, and then the EMT took over. Jett was pronounced dead at the hospital. I like to believe John had a chance to say goodbye. He may have died in his dad's arms. I am not certain."

Us: It's been said Jett had a history of seizures. How often did he have them?

Ossi and McDermott: "I am not confident to talk about that. I know he had a history, which of course warranted the extra attention."

another article from the London Times

Scientology ‘in denial’ of illness, says Travolta’s mentor

excerpt


Christman left after suffering epileptic fits, culminating in a seizure which caused her to fall in the bath, knocking out her front teeth. Fellow Scientolo-gists refused to accept that she had a “real” illness, insisting that she work harder studying the teachings of the church’s founder, L Ron Hubbard, the science fiction writer, she said.

Christman was actually John Travolta’s teacher..

She like everyone else who has met him, talked about what a nice person he is..

load of new details coming out..

from the Daily Mail

Intriguing questions about the Scientologist wedding photographer who was the main carer for John Travolta’s son

Last updated at 10:46 PM on 10th January 2009

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1111838/Intriguing-questions-Scientologist-wedding-photographer-main-carer-John-Travoltas-son.html

its long article.. here are some of the main points..


Although Kathrein appears to have been given a key role in Jett’s wellbeing, he seems only to have been referred to as nanny from last weekend. By profession he is a wedding photographer, and was one of the last people to see Jett alive.

strange that he would only be referred to as a nanny only after the death.. the other article posted earlier stated that Kathrein had no medical licenses at all..


The police report states that Kathrein informed them he had been watching television in the suite next to Jett’s and that the nannies (they don’t make it clear whether it was Eli or Kathrein) last saw the boy at about 11.30pm.

According to the police, Jett may have been left unattended for more than ten hours.

A police spokesman said: ‘We stand by our initial report but we cannot make any further comment about the discrepancies between our report and other versions of the event that have been put out there because the investigation is on-going.’


again the timeline issue.. but what is new.. is that contrary to earlier reports the investigation is ongoing..

as i had earlier suggested seems that medication had been stopped years ago.. was not a recent thing..


He said medication had been stopped several years ago because it had ‘ceased to work’ and Kelly feared it might be damaging Jett’s liver.

WOW. Daily Mail is on it. Second largest paper in the UK. They are touching on things the US media is afraid to print even though libel laws in the UK are tougher.

Amazon in the UK decided to cease selling the book
“The Complex: An Insider Exposes the Covert World of the Church of Scientology by John Duignan and Nicola Tallant “
because of all the legal threats.

Carry On.

Going back to lurking.

what I am still stunned by in the Daily Mail article is that Jett was on no anti-seizure medications for the past several years...

That alone to me sounds like something that should be looked into.. especially since he was having grand mal seizures every 4 days..

Medical opinion on the links posted on my posts above was that he should have been in a hospital if he was having a grand mal every four days so that medication could be adjusted... and IV medication could be administered..

I forgot who posted it to me but.. I was wrong she was right.. probably Bahamas not best place for Jett at that time..

new article..

John Travolta’s Son’s Nanny To Be Questioned By Police For Not Having Formal Childcare Qualifications

http://www.allheadlinenews.com/articles/7013677917


John Travolta’s late teenage son’s nanny is to be quizzed by police. Jeff Kathrein is to be questioned after it emerged he has no formal childcare qualifications and earns a living as a wedding photographer.

It has also been claimed that although he was employed as 16-year-old Jett’s primary care-giver he was never actually referred to as the boy’s nanny until after his tragic death.

Funny....but.....

the Scientologists sound like typical rabid fascist DemocRats to me. Threats of lawsuits (and/or violence) against their opposition. Squelching freedom of speech to protect their culture of death agenda.

That automatically makes them MY enemies. And the list grows daily.

They got shot down today in their attempt to thwart free speech in Riverside County. I believe that the only reason that this got addressed today is because a Los Angeles Times reporter just happened to be at the protest when the cops came to shut down the protestors ....

http://www.latimes.com/news/printedition/california/la-me-scientology10-pg,0,349984.story?page=1

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2009/01/riverside-count.html

One of the protestors brought up a sign when it was his turn to speak at the meeting. On it was a man who is apparently a former Scientologist. It is a picture of him with a poster saying that the leader beats his staff.

Apparently, He also just happens to be the ex-husband of someone who was there speaking on behalf of the Scientologists .

Perhaps this is why she is reported to have done such a bad job in the meeting. He knows the truth.

"We are not here to stop any right to free speech," Nardone said."

"We prefer to respond with more rather than less people," said Lt. Patty Knudson of the sheriff's Hemet station, which handles the area. "Sometimes Golden Era will contract with us for extra patrols and we assign two deputies for that. They have probably done that four or five times over the past year."

"Fraser got on the phone to the Riverside County counsel's office to see if the demonstrators could be pushed farther down the road."

Sounds a bit contradictory, eh? On one hand they're supposedly not trying to squash free speech....and on the other hand they are blatantly trying to push the protestors as far away as possible. And with no actual proof provided of any of their "staff" having been endangered, much LESS of being attacked by that 'crowd' of three or four people.

Sounds to me like they've got the local law enforcement on their payroll.

Here are some of the videos from the meeting yesterday.

http://www.vimeo.com/2821058

http://www.vimeo.com/2821548

http://www.vimeo.com/2821821

Apparently, Many people are scared to go protest this facility. Here is just one of the reasons why.

“SCIENTOLOGY IS ARMED AND DANGEROUS
28. In 1991 I had to prepare the base so that it could be defended against the possibility of being taken over by the authorities in a time of crisis”

http://www.whyaretheydead.net/krasel/aff_at.html

Read that affadavit and tell me what kind of church that sounds like to you.

By the way, their current suppression of speech campaign is DMCA’ing videos on Youtube . When Youtube gets a DMCA claim they take the video down..whether the claim is legitimate or not. To fight a DMCA claim, you have to expose your identity. Once you expose your identity...they dead agent you...or in the case of Riverside Protestors - spread the word that you are HIV+

And in the case of the Riverside board, are they paying off or blackmailing any of them.

Going back to lurking..

Travoltas Claim Extortion

http://gawker.com/5135663/travoltas-claim-extortion


Lawyers for John Travolta and Kelly Preston claim officials in the Bahamas tried to extort millions from the celebrity couple with “false claims” about the tragic but controversial death of their teenage son Jett.

Jett died in the Bahamas on January 2. The National Enquirer, citing a Bahamian newspaper, says police are investigating a local politician and a co-conspirator for the alleged extortion attempt. Mike Ossi and Howard Butler, Travolta’s attorneys, released a statement:

Regrettably in a time of such terrible grief there are often a few individuals who attempt to make false claims in hopes of making millions of dollars. We will never let that happen.

Which makes no sense. If people are making false claims, why doesn’t the Travolta camp just deny them? Wouldn’t threatening to reveal something true be far more profitable?


hmmm..
