Jett Travolta Autopsy Underway

16. I'm a long time TMZ fan, but as of today, I'm not watching your show or reading the site anymore. Your coverage of this child's passing is disgusting. Nobody needs a blow-by-blow of the whole thing. This was a CHILD, not some drug-addled, spoiled rich rock star that OD'd (not that anyone deserves this kind of crappy, morbid and wholly distasteful coverage). I will get my entertainment news elsewhere from now on. Shame on you. This is my first and last TMZ posting, and viewing, ever. I love you Harvey, but you guys should know better

17. Look at all the clams trying to defend the Travoltas and Jett's death. What are they afraid of? LOL The truth! Keep up the good work TMZ, do NOT let the cult of scientology silence you. The public needs to know why Jett died at 16 years old! His death should not be in vain. Let the truth come out.

If people are truly upset about this story, WHY are they clicking on the link and commenting! Stay away from the site. D'uh!

KWS-Keep Scientology Working!! LOL Attack and never defend, right clams? ?

Google Lisa McPherson. Jett's death is NOT an isolated incident. There are MANY more out there.

19. TMZ NEEDS TO LEAVE THE FAMILY ALONE.
THIS IS SOMETHING PRETTY FKN PRIVATE. YOU DONT NEED TO UPDATE AMERCIA ABOUT AN AUTOSPY BEING DONE ON A CHILD.
THIS IS LOW.
THIS POOR FAMILY DOESNT NEED TMZ WRITING ABOUT THERE SONS AUTOSPY.
WE ALL MAKE FUN OF CELBS OUT OF BOREDOM AND PUT THERE TRASH OUT THERE.
BUT THIS SUBJECT SHOULD BE LEFT OUT OF THE PUBLIC.
THE TRAVOLTAS SHOULD SUE THE HELL OUT YOU FOR THIS.

20. Since TMZ reports on celebrities and "the commoners" if needed, why not enlight us on themselves. First, there is the host (the one who says "I am a lawyer). He looks like a recovring alcholic, and the rest of the males looks gay or metrosexual (whatever that is), especially the wannabe Fablian. And the black chick hasn't missed a meal in a while. What about the spike haird blonded guy? Gaaaaaaaaaaaaay

25. While we are waitingon TMZ to cut and paste, this article is on Yahoo.com



Travolta lawyers -- who are close family friends -- reveal to Usmagazine.com that Jett may have died in his father's arms Friday. "Yesterday was the worst day of [John's] life," Travolta's lawyer and confidant, Michael McDermott, and Michael Ossi, the family's attorney, tell Us in a phone interview (during which they asked all quotes to be jointly attributed).

Us: How is John doing?

Ossi and McDermott: "John is distraught. He is trying to understand and reconcile this. He is seeking an explanation so that this makes sense to him. And his loved ones are trying to provide that to him.

"Yesterday was the worst day of his life. Today is probably equally as bad, and if not, it's the second worst day of his life.

"John is recognizing the outpouring of support he has got from both the U.S. and the world. He can feel the love and he says it makes him stronger and hopefully it allows him to reconcile.

"He is undergoing the pain any father would if they lost his son. Generally a son buries his father, and John thought that would be the way it would go with Jett, not the other way around.

"He is in shock. He is emotionally distraught. He is going through many different feelings of disbelief and anger. It's going to take a while for him to feel good again. This is the most traumatic thing that has ever happened to him and he needs to go through a process of healing. John and Kelly are suffering total misery. They were so close to their son. This is hard to accept.

"He had set a vacation for his employees and friends. Forty-nine adults and their children were coming here [to the Bahamas] from Jan. 2nd to 4th. We were all so excited to spend some days with John. We were on the plane and we had no idea, and then we landed and we found out. Every year he holds a party for friends and employees and this year he had the idea to fly us all to his condo. We were planning to hang out on the beach, go for boat rides and spend time with the family.

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.

Us: How is Jett's 8-year-old sister, Ella Bleu, taking it?

Ossi and McDermott: "John broke the news to Ella. She is heartbroken. She is in disbelief, but it is starting to sink in. She has been asking where her brother is. She was so close to Jett. The whole family were so close. They went everywhere together. If John made a movie, they were all there with him.

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."

Us: You obviously knew Jett well. What was his personality like?

Ossi and McDermott: "He was a wonderful boy. He had physical limitations, but when he looked in his dad's eyes, the love was tangible. When he grabbed onto his dad, he did not want to let him go."

Look back at the stars who died in 2008.

26. To my reference of private, shameful and insufficient moments, I was referring to TMZ reporting of deaths, divorces, and armpits, cellulites and so forth. Please try reading w/ some sense of comprehension.

28. Anitbiotics would have helped (when he was sick at age 2) instead scientology says vitamins are the healer.then he was given the scientology detox...with that being said...the Lord Almighty is holding this child now.

29. *eyerolls* They needed to keep their comments short. Yet we get more spin. They should have talked about Jett and not made any comment on how he died. My heart does break for his sister as I said in the last post.
