Travolta tells blackmail trial of son's death

Film star John Travolta today relived the horror of watching his handicapped teenage son die in front of him, giving evidence at the trial of two people accused of trying to blackmail him over the boy.

With his actress wife Kelly Preston also in the Nassau courtroom, Travolta said he tried to revive 16-year-old Jett after he fell ill at the family holiday home on Grand Bahama island. Jett later died from a seizure.
