Jett Travolta Autopsy May Never Be Public

Jett TravoltaThe Ministry of Health in the Bahamas tells TMZ the autopsy findings in the death of John Travolta's son may never be public.

Dr. Hubert Minnis says a pathologist at Rand Memorial Hospital (where Jett Travolta was pronounced dead) is currently performing the autopsy, which should take several hours. Dr. Minnis says he personally decided, because of the high profile nature of the case, to bring in a second pathologist from Nassau, Dr. Karen Sands. Dr. Minnis made a point to us that Dr. Sands is an American.

The doctor says once the pathologists complete a preliminary report, it's forwarded on to a coroner. The coroner then forwards the completed report to the Travolta/Preston family. Dr. Minnis says only the family has authority to release the findings to the public. No word if that will happen.

46. Please leave this family alone already! We all need to back off of them and let them breathe and grieve alone. These intrusions into their story and their pain is what is currently wrong with the hollywood media today-when is it going to stop?

47. Victoria I am confused as to why you were upset with Canadian Girl. Your comment (#3) clearly says "BS! The public has every right to know!!" What, pray tell, were you talking about, if it wasn't autopsy results?

49. EXACTLY how many of YOU have experienced grand mal seizures? EXACTLY how many of YOU have ever had to deal with a child that is in the middle of a grand mal seizure? It's absolutely HORRIFIC what they experience during one, horrific. The medications for these seizures only have a certain amount of time within the system before their system starts to reject it. Plus, children normally have to go through blood test every 3-6 months because of the affects on the liver and kidneys from this medication. So BEFORE you go spouting off lies about John and Kelly not giving their child medication, educate yourself on the facts first. It has been stated that the medication STOPPED working for him. I'm sure they did not just pull him off without a physicians knowledge first.

My heart goes out to them.

50. FISHY.

Do a search for the police report and you'll see that while Jett was FOUND at 10AM he was "on his way" to the hospital by ambulance at 11:40AM -- what was going on for 1 hour and 40 minutes????????

53. Interesting read on the link that Numb provided... I am curious about this restaurant manager that is so upset with Travolta for not acknowledging Jett's autism. Doesn't sound as though he knows him very well having just met him... so how is it he knows what John & Kelly do regarding Jett's care (feeding him junk food and letting him play video games all day). Is he their neighbor? Their nanny? Something is not ading up THERE.

54. perhaps it will stop when these actors/entertainers stop trying to brainwash the people who simply buy movie tickets with their endorsements and support of deadly organizations such as scientology. They say they simply want to entertainment, bull.

55. And this is why we will never know how Jim Morrison died either because there was no autopsy or if there was one, only the family knows. The fans are kept forever in the dark.

I was put on Depakote for one day and I laid on my bed staring at the ceiling and couldnt get up or move. Seizure medications are powerful and it turned out I wasnt having seizures.

My sympathy goes out to John and Kelly and their family.

You call someone else pathetic and yet you wish harm on others? That is a very harsh thing to do and I hope that you know Karma is a pain in the butt. You should never wish someone harm, especially when it is only over a difference of opinion. We ALL have opinions - doesn't make one more right or wrong than the other. You need to evaluate yourself and your "pathetic" comment and maybe hit your knees and ask for forgiveness. What an immature, ignorant thing to say to a group of people that you have never and will never meet.

57. To This is private-FAMILY information

Did you not just sit at your computer and pass judgement on those commenting here? Since you are also sitting on your tush and posting a comment here, dare I ask, do YOU have a job? See how stupid that sounds? If I were you, and clearly I am not, I would not write a post regarding passing judgement when you pass judgement on MANY in your opening sentence.
Okie Doke,
Where did you come up with THIS name? Yes my dear I work THREE jods and I am home with a sick child today, if you must know. I happened to catch this show the other night on TV and decided to visit this site. I can ONLY guess by your reaction you are one of the jobless, I am so sorry I offended you. I know you are not me, clearly can you see the stupidity in that comment? But you are NOW passing judgement on me, have a nice day and I hope you find a job in the New Year!
; )

58. all you people saying he died from neglect wrong he had two nannies when he wasn't with his parents which they had him with them all the time so you are all wrong about that two they took him off medication when it no longer was working for him and put him on another so your wrong there too.. So all you people sitting here writing comments about these people like you have tea with them every Sunday get your head out of your ass's and get a life. This child was seeing the best doctors in the world and had two parents who loved him no matter what kind if illness he had, to say they neglected him was just wrong. maybe you people were neglected.
