Telling Radar about rescue efforts made by the EMT team dispatched to attempt to revive 16-year-old Jett Travolta, crew chief of said unit Marcus Garvey talked in detail about what took place at the scene.
By the time Garvey arrived, a doctor was performing CPR on an unconscious Jett while his parents John Travolta and Kelly Preston anxiously waited for a response. The couple were in shock and traveled with their child in the ambulance to the hospital, where the young man was pronounced dead.
Despite the ordeal, John remained gracious to Garvey after learning the news that his son was dead and told the rescue worker “Good job, good job.”

it is totally unethical for an EMT to give an interview on a casualty. if a doctor were to do this he would face disciplinary action from the applicable medical board. i hope the same happens to this emt

The EMT giving a statement or relaying to the media what happened with John/Kellys son Jett was unethical because it should have been a private matter between the hospital and the parents. If the parents wants to give details about the passing of their son Jett and the details that happened of the tradegy that should be up to the Parents not an EMT worker or anyone else. We should all respect their privacy at a time like this.
May JET R.I.P and my condolences to the family on the loss of their son.

I agree that it was in poor taste for him to speak to the media, but they weren’t in the U.S. and perhaps not subject to the same privacy laws.

What a lovely picture of love between father and son that picture shows. So very sad. Whatever his beliefs, whatever his life, he obviously loved and cherished that boy. He was loved. That’s more than many get in the world. God rest that beautiful child. So very, very, wrong.

No, They were NOT duped.They paid the EMT’s to lie. I personally know all the EMT’s and he was not the EMT who worked the call. The only thing he did was open the door for te ambulance after it reach the hospital. He lied about being cheif and about what he say he heard.He should never work in health care again.
