John Travolta Tried To Save His Boy

john travolta jett John Travolta Tried To Save His BoyJohn Travolta is having to relive the tragic circumstances the day his 16-year-old son Jett passed away from a seizure in the Bahamas last January. 

The 54-year-old actor is testifying in court against paramedic Tarino Lightbourne and former Bahamas senator Pleasant Bridgewater, who are accused of attempting to extort $US25 million from the Travolta family.


Travolta also testified that he tried to save Jett. “I ran downstairs with my wife to help my son.” John administered CPR to his boy but it was not effective and the teen was declared dead at Rand Memorial Hospital.

It’s tragic enough that John and wife Kelly Preston lost their son and Ella Bleu lost her big brother, but for the family to have to relive the pain of that fateful day is so sad.  It’s almost like starting the grieving process all over again.

Both defendants have said they are innocent of all charges.
