Angelina Jolie has ‘finally given in’
Angelina Jolie, using the pseudonym “Jane Doe,” officially dropped her 2022 lawsuit against the FBI and Department of Justice on September 25, though their separate legal battle over the French winery Château Miraval remains in court.
However, the recent move has brought relief to Brad Pitt, as the FBI file will remain sealed despite previous leaks. A source told InTouch it seems Jolie has “finally given in.”
The lawsuit centered around the infamous 2016 private jet altercation that led to their marriage’s breakdown. According to the FBI report, Pitt, 60, allegedly argued with their son Maddox before boarding, was intoxicated, and “mimicked the behavior of a monster,” shouting at his family. Jolie, 49, recalled feeling “frozen and scared,” with both her and the children left traumatised. She noted she sustained two minor injuries during the incident.

In the countersuit, the 60-year-old admitted to struggling with alcohol but firmly denied ever hitting any of the children. The L.A. County Department of Children and Family Services looked into it and found him not guilty and thus no charges were filed. However, Angelina filed a Freedom of Information Act request to get all the related documents, saying an FBI agent had written up a probable cause statement, but the prosecutors chose not to act on it.
With only two of their children still minors, those legal battles are largely coming to an end. “Technically, it’s a win for Brad,” a source says, “but the damage is already done.”
