Mystery Document in Travolta Case -- Revealed

Posted Jan 27th 2009 4:45PM by TMZ Staff

John TravoltaWe 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.

The Nassau Guardian has published a story saying it's a "refusal to transport" document. The paper cites the Senior Assistant Commissioner of Police Marvin Dames, who says the document "is signed by a party when refusing, for example, emergency medical services from trained personnel."

Our sources say John and Kelly did not refuse treatment for Jett, but had an issue over where he should be treated.

1. Perhaps as with the death of Lisa McPherson they only wanted a $cientologist quack Dr. to treat him.

2. I smell the stench of scientology. But my senses have gone the wrong way before.

3. Scientolocrap probably.

4. There is likely more to this than meets the eye. Whenever you have Scientology involved you can bet they've done something stupid based on the rantings of Blubbard.

5. EMT's don't take requests for where to take a patient. They are supposed to take the patient to the nearest hospital. EMTs will get rerouted by the hospital, if the receiving hospital cannot accommodate the patient. The only document that would have been available to sign is the patient refusal of treatment, which indicates the patient does not wish to be transported to a hospital. It is actually required by law to transport any patient under 18 to the hospital when EMT is called to the site. If the parent's refuse to transport they can be legally held liable for criminal endangerment of a minor.

7. yeah they argued over which scientologist voodoo doctor to take him too. mom probably opted for "real care" and "real docs" and daddy says no, we'll let the scientolo-quacks look after it.

there is more to this story than that little bit, they have something to hide for that amount of money, its big and no doubt involves their neglect and lack of proper care for their disabled child.

i hope someday the truth comes to light and the parents are prosecuted for abuse.

god help little suri cruise should she become ill. she will be doomed to the same fate, poor little thing.

8. I don't know about in the Bahamas, but here in the US if a matter of life and death parents cannot refuse treatment for a child. (unless maybe they have a DNR for a terminal child) I wouldn't put it past those nutjobs to try to refuse care. Other Scientologists have killed there kids by refusing to properly treat their childrens medical conditions.

9. It's not the nearest hospital. It's the most appropriate hospital. Which parents or patients have NO say. It's a medical decision.

This "church" makes the Mafia look like choirboys in comparison.

12. Ummm... I thought he died at the scene, meaning why was it necessary to treat or not treat him in the ambulance, or what hospital to take him to if he was already dead??????? So, if he was alive, his parents are culpable, and yeah, scientolonuts.

13. Why doesn't everyone let the child rest in peace and let the family morn the loss. Everyone is trying to blame Scientology. That's crap. Just because they are Scientologist and mega stars everyone thinks they have the right to but in to their lives.

14. The whole situation sucks. While i believe they were a loving family, it is really worrisome that they would deny their child ncessary medical treatment...if they did.

Posted at 5:23PM on Jan 27th 2009 by obama is really a scientologist

15. People 'blame' Scientology because there is so much for which they ARE to blame.

Scientology-it's FAR worse than you think.
