Mystery Document in Travolta Case -- Revealed
TMZ ^ | Jan 27th 2009 4:45PM | TMZ Staff

Posted on 01/27/2009 2:45:53 PM PST by outlawjake

We now know what the document is all about in the John Travolta extortion case.

Sources connected with the investigation tell us the document is an authorization for transporting Jett Travolta in the ambulance.

We're told John Travolta and Kelly Preston had an issue over where Jett Travolta should be taken for emergency treatment. We do not have further specifics, nor do we know why the alleged extortionists thought it was worth $25 million to keep private.

not sure why there would be an issue over where to take him.. seems like closest hospital would be obvious answer.

Unless they didn’t want further treatment.

Or unless it was some Scientology non-treatment related thing.

This whole thing is a lot of BS.

OK, Travolta is an adherent to a strange religion. That said, I think he ought to be left alone to live his life like the rest of us.

The pressitutes are a bunch of blood-sucking leeches.

The good thing is that if we don’t feed them, they’ll die.

Ignore this crap. And watch the presstitutes compete amongst themselves for jobs as burger-flippers.

yea.. or maybe he was looking for a scientology Dr.?

but think they would be hard to come by in the Bahamas...

If you look at the timeline.. the first call to the ambulance was said to be at 9:30 although some have said 10:00 and they didn’t arrive at the hospital until 11:40.

There is no evidence supporting such a conjecture.

imo.. when any child dies it should be investigated.. whether they are privileged stars or not.. that doesn’t mean hounded.. but at least some investigation needs to be done..

If a child could be saved by some treatment that say, required the use of fetal stem cells from an abortion, would it be OK for a Christian parent to refuse that treatment? I would say yes, even if it means the death of the child. I'm not even saying I'd make the same call. But that call should be the parent's to make.

Sure, Travolta belongs to a wacky religion. Agree there. But I think parents should be the authority for what happens to their children. I'd give pretty wide latitude too. I think people that refuse blood transfusions are stupid, but the state has no right to step in.

Of course there's a limit. I can't quite put my finger on it, but it's there someplace. A parent obviously isn't utterly above the law in mistreatment or abuse of their kids. But there are honest ethical dilemmas and those ethics choices should be heavily weighted in favor of the parent. Because when that becomes weighted in favor of the state we become the property of the state.

yes its a tough balancing act.. I could be wrong about this.. but was it the Christian Scientists who don’t believe in surgery.. so that a Christian Scientist child who got a ruptured appendix would be in serious trouble..

I don’t remember what the Christian Science position would be. But whatever it is, I’d be tempted to still let the parent make the call. No, it’s still stupid of them. Crazy even. Some kids are born to good parents, some to bad parents, and some to just plain crazy parents. It ain’t fair. But we have to be very cautious before standing in Loco Parentis.

Maybe it’s the chlorine the Lord put in the gene pool. I don’t know. And sure... there’s some choices that parents need to sometimes have made against their will. Some choices are as common sense as taking some action to yank a kid out from in front of a bus. And if ~that~ ends up being against someone’s religion, well... too bad for them. Then it’s time for somebody else to do it for them.

I can’t yet define it, but I know it when I see it.

There are reports that Travolta wanted Jett treated in Florida. Of course, according to their Religion, Travolta should have been able to bring him back to life with a process outlined by Hubbard.

This whole thing is really off and given that Scientology is involved....you can’t underestimate how bizarre the twists and turns will be...

but I doubt this ends up in court. Too much would be revealed that Scientology wouldn’t want exposed.

The jet left the Bahamas that morning before Jett was supposedly found. It went to the town of the lawyer and then headquarters of Scientology and then back to the Bahamas according to reported flight data.

The quotes from Dames don’t make sense to me.

“In this context, a document like that does not apply because as we know young Jett was not... he did not have any minor injuries. He was very ill. And so the document does not come into play,” Dames said.”

Does anyone think that Dames might have been about to say Jett was not alive....and so therefore the release doesn’t come into play.

So if he was dead..then perhaps John wanted to take him back to Florida to do the Scientology hocus pocus touch assist voodoo.

This whole thing smells rotten..

For those of you that followed the Anna Nicole saga with the death of her son..

Travolta’s Lawyer, Allyson Maynard-Gibson was the Attorney General at that time. She is the one that ratted out her fellow party Senator in the current fiasco in the Bahamas.

I am more on the other end of that balancing act.. i feel too many parents are idiots, drug addicts or mentally ill..

so i side more on the childs life side, probably than you do.. for instance i would intervene in blood transfusion type cases..

I suppose.. lets say if there was a child that had cancer.. and only had a small chance of living with chemotherapy.. and parents religion was against that.. i would leave that up to parents..

Travolta reportedly wanting to take his son to Florida instead of the closest hospital reminds me of
Lisa McPherson. She might have been saved if they had taken her to a closer hospital on the day she died..and certainly if they had gotten her proper medical treatment before that day.

This is the reality of Scientology.

For those of you who are like I used to be...who only know that Scientology is some wacky religion that causes Tom Cruise to act crazy and jump on couches...

here is what I discovered when I started doing research after learning about Jett’s death...

..the truth about Scientology. Don’t watch it if you have a weak stomach.

In memory of Lisa Mcpherson - she didn’t need to die.

And maybe Jett didn’t have to die, too.
