Angelina Jolie Drops Brad Pitt Abuse Claim Against FBI
Angelina Jolie has dropped her lawsuit against the FBI over Brad Pitt's alleged abuse of her and their children on a plane flying from France to California.
Recall that in 2016, the FBI began an investigation into the incident that preceded the star couple's divorce - according to Jolie, Pitt choked one of their children on a plane and hit another in the face. In addition, he grabbed the actress by the head and "shaked her." "At some point, he spilled beer on Jolie, and also spilled beer and wine on the children," the official documents said. In the end, the investigation led nowhere, and the case was closed.
However, in April 2022, Jolie, under the pseudonym “Jane Doe,” filed a lawsuit against the FBI, demanding to provide all information about the investigation, citing the Freedom of Information Act. At the time, a source for Page Six claimed that the actress was trying to obtain at least some information discrediting Brad Pitt in order to use it in the custody battle for the children.
"Angelina is probably looking for a piece of information, something else that she can use against Brad to hurt him. This is a desperate move to find something that may not exist in the FBI records so she can release it," the insider said.
However, the 49-year-old actress has now decided to withdraw the lawsuit. It should be noted that 60-year-old Pitt categorically denied all allegations of physical abuse and claimed that Jolie's accusations were "absolutely untrue."
Whatever the truth, the actor's children sided with their mother. Thus, Pax called Brad Pitt a "world-class asshole" on social media, and Zahara, Vivienne and Shiloh refused his last name, and the latter did so officially, having contacted the necessary authorities. Insiders report that Brad is having a hard time dealing with the breakup with his children. However, this does not stop him from planning future children with his new girlfriend, jewelry designer Ines de Ramon. The couple's relationship is getting stronger. Brad and Ines recently walked the red carpet together for the first time.
