Saturday, the Bahamas’ health minister announced that two pathologists would be used in order to perform the autopsy of John Travolta’s son, who died at the actor’s vacation home in Grand Bahama.

The decision to use a second expert is aimed at ensuring a thorough and careful investigation into the cause of Jett Travolta’s death, according to a statement made by Dr. Hubert Minnis to the Associated Press.

Jett Travolta, 16, was found collapsed in a bathroom on Friday, as a result of seizure and having hit his head on the bathtub and was afterwards taken to Rand Memorial Hospital in Freeport by ambulance, where he was pronounced dead, as police Superintendent Basil Rahming has informed.

Minnis said that on Monday, a United States-certified clinical and forensic pathologist from Nassau was to fly into Grand Bahama so as to help perform the boy’s autopsy, adding that  by the end of the day, a possible cause of death was likely to be discovered.

Michael McDermott, John Travolta’s corporate and commercial attorney, stated that the actor was in the process of finalizing the funeral arrangements and that he intended to fly his son’s body to Florida by the middle of the following week, where Travolta and wife actress Kelly Preston share a house in Ocala.

Currently, in the attempt to prevent the media from invading the mourning family’s privacy, security has been increased at the Old Bahama Bay resort community, where Travolta owns a house.

On Tuesday, the actor and his family arrived in the Bahamas on a private plane for the New Year’s holiday week-end, which they were to spend with 60 of their friends, including Michael McDermott, the family having planned to remain at the Old Bahama Bay hotel resort until January 9.

Travolta and Preston revealed that Jett had become seriously ill at the age of 2 and that he had been diagnosed with Kawasaki disease, which causes blood vessels in young children to become inflamed.

Kelly Preston cast the blame for his condition on household cleaners and fertilizers, adding that a detoxification program focusing on the Church of Scientology’s teachings had helped improve Jett’s health.

Back in 2001, in a interview with CNN’s Larry King that was partially rebroadcast on the „Larry King Live” show Friday night, John Travolta said that he had become obsessed with his son’s space being constantly cleaned, also revealing how Jett had come very close to losing his life when he was 2 years old.

Jett was Travolta and Preston’s oldest child, the couple also having an 8-year-old daughter named Ella Bleu.

John Travolta, 54, rose to fame due to his portrayal of Vinnie Barbarino on the 1970s television show „Welcome Back, Kotter,” along with his role in the 1977 movie „Saturday Night Fever.”

He married Kelly Preston, 46, in 1991, the two having appeared together in the 2000 production „Battlefield Earth.”
