Paramedic Charged In Travolta Extortion Case

A paramedic has been charged with attempting to extort $25 million from John Travolta following the death of his son Jett in the Bahamas. The AP reports that Tarino Lightbourne, who was in the ambulance that carried Jett Travolta to the hospital following a seizure, has pleaded not guilty to attempting to extort and conspiracy to extort from the star. Other parties are still under suspicion in the case.

While details of the alleged extortion scheme have not been revealed, there have been rumors that there are photos of Jett Travolta taken in the ambulance and someone has tried to shake down the Travoltas with threats of making them public.

I hope the authorities get to the bottom of this. It’s reprehensible for someone whose job is supposed to be saving lives to use his position to try to make money off the misfortune of a grieving family.
