As the divorce proceedings between star actors, Angelina Jolie and Brad
Pitt continue, the war of words and accusations intensify. According to
latest court documents, Jolie has slammed her ex Brad for filing a
motion through his lawyer to seal custody related records, claiming that
he did so because he is "terrified that the public will learn the
truth."
Jolie’s document was filed in response to the recent motion filed by
Pitt’s lawyer, Lance Spiegel, requesting that the judge seals all
records regarding the custody of their children. Pitt’s motion came
weeks after his earlier request for an emergency hearing to have the
documents sealed was denied by the judge because the request was not an
emergency.
According to the new court document filed on Tuesday
by Jolie’s lawyer, Laura Wasser, Jolie accuses Pitt of trying to
"deflect from [his] own role in the media storm which has engulfed the
parties' children."
As stated by Jolie’s document, "There is little doubt that [Brad] would
prefer to keep the entire case private, particularly given the detailed
investigations by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Dept. of
Children and Family Services into allegation of abuse."
Meanwhile, a source close to the actor has refuted these claims by
Jolie, saying that Pitt had been cleared of child abuse by both the FBI
and Child Services after investigations were made with Jolie’s
cooperation.
“Clearly her claims were considered legitimate enough to impact those
conclusions. And if she held back information which, we don't believe
that she did, then isn't she then not representing the best interests of
her children by holding it back?" The source said.
