New York - Actor John Travolta testified for the second time Wednesday in the extortion case revolving around the death of his 16- year-old son Jett last January in the Bahamas. Travolta, 55, was appearing in court in Nassau, Bahamas, in the case against paramedic Tarino Lightbourne and former Bahamas senator Pleasant Bridgewater, who are charged with trying to extort 25 million dollars from Travolta to refrain from leaking details about the traumatic incident. The pair have pleaded innocent.
Travolta told the court that he had never been contacted directly by either of the suspects, who had instead made the demands to Travolta's friend and employee Ronald Zupancic.
The blackmailers allegedly threatened that if the funds were not forthcoming they would sell to the media a document signed by Travolta that released paramedics from liability for not immediately transporting Jett to hospital.
