Two Plead Not Guilty in Travolta Extortion Case

Pleasant Bridgewater and Tarino Lightbourne -- who allegedly conspired to extort John Travolta out of $25 million dollars -- have just pled not guilty in Bahamian court.

John Travolta

Bridgewater -- a former Bahamian Senator -- was charged with abatement to extort and Lightbourne -- Jett's EMT -- with attempted extortion. They allegedly tried to extort Travolta over information surrounding the death of his son, Jett.

We're told John and Obie Wilchcombe, a family friend, will be called as witnesses in the case.

The alleged extortionists' bail remains at $50,000 each.

R.J. JOHNSON GO AWAY ALREADY! So these crackerjacks are in jail I take it since it says their bail is still set at 50K each. That would mean to me still in jail. Good. Let you sit, tick, tock, tick, tock, GUILTY, bye bye.

#11, You read too many gossip rags. There was never an ongoing investigation into Jett's death. The autopsy took place 3 days after his death ,hardly quick. Nobody denied Jett had head trauma,just that it was ruled out as the cause of death. Also there are many illnesses that cause seizures. Unless you are the Travolta's doctor ,there is no way you know anything,how could you. So ,to avoid looking stupid in the future,stick to the facts. Rumors and speculation serve no purpose here.
