Grieving John Travolta is the centre of an alleged extortion plot that is said to involve a photograph of his son Jett that was taken as he was dying.
He was contacted by a pair of alleged extortionists who demanded 'millions of dollars' or threatened to sell the photo to the highest bidder.
Travolta, 54, immediately contacted his lawyers to deal with the matter and they flew to the Bahamas over the weekend to meet with the alleged extortionists.
Two men, including a local politician from Grand Bahama where Jett died, are being quizzed over the allegations, according to local reports. The other man involved is thought to be connected with the ambulance service.
A police source said: 'The investigation is at an early stage. Mr Travolta is co-operating fully.'

Use the money to hire some serious leg-breakers. Send them if the lawyers don't work.

Remember, Travolta and his "church" forbid chemical medical intervention. His son could have been successfully treated from birth with medication to control the seizure disorder that caused his demise. John, Kelly, and all their followers are guilty, minimumally, of child endangerment and should all rot in Hell for the innocents who could have grown up to be productive citizens...or even President!
Stick that up your nose, Vinnie Barbarino!

Scientologists are weird. The fact that they use the word 'science' in their name is a ploy to legitimize their 'religion'. Sorry that they lost their son- it is horrible. And supposedly, he was on anti seizure meds, until they stopped working. As for the extotion..i just gotta wonder if it's true.

Each of us have a right to our own unique way to our Creator. It is a right and a priviledge we all need deep in our soul to find our way home.
