Angelina Jolie drops FBI lawsuit tied to Brad Pitt incident
Did she give up, or did she simply decide to move forward? Angelina Jolie has withdrawn her lawsuit against the FBI, which was connected to allegations against Brad Pitt for violence.
Let's go back in time a few years. In 2022, it was revealed that Angelina Jolie had sued the FBI and the Department of Justice because the investigation into Brad Pitt's alleged violence, which she reported to these bodies, had been closed. It concerned events that reportedly occurred on their private plane just before their divorce in 2016.
Jolie vs. Pitt: What happened on the plane?
The entire family, the actor couple, and their children were flying to France from the USA. Brad Pitt argued with his son Maddox before boarding, then got drunk and caused a stir. Although Pitt denied that any violence occurred, the matter was taken up by social services when the family landed at the airport. Subsequently, the FBI took over the case but eventually closed it.
The actress subsequently filed a lawsuit under the pseudonym "Jane Doe," commonly used by crime victims in the United States. The lawsuit explained that Ms. Doe had been attempting for years to obtain hidden information to ensure her children received the appropriate care and counselling for the harm they endured. The Department of Justice and FBI had been withholding evidence related to this harm, and their ongoing refusal to release this information had obstructed Ms. Doe’s efforts to secure proper care for her children, causing further harm according to family law. The lawsuit, filed by Jolie, was eventually leaked to the media.

Now, InTouch has reported that the actress has withdrawn her lawsuit. A source for the site revealed that the lawsuit was another way to ruin Brad's reputation, but it seems she has finally given up.
Angelina Jolie is currently promoting her latest movie, "Maria." Brad Pitt recently starred in "Wolves" (Apple TV+) with George Clooney.
