John Travolta’s First Masseur Case Is Dropped

For over a week, about every day, we’ve been hearing more and more stories about John Travolta and his rumored sexually assaulting ways, so it’s been hard to keep up.

We first heard about a masseur coming forward to sue the actor for sexual battery and assault, then we hear about a second, a third, and then out comes a fourth accusation. Somewhere in the middle there, all of a sudden, we hear about the first accuser “forgetting” the correct dates, thereby losing some credibility with the public (just like Travolta’s people a.k.a. the Church of Scientology wanted it to be perceived). Radar came out Monday to say the second accuser is willing to bail out on the lawsuit for a payday of $250K, and now People is saying that the first accuser is dropping their lawsuit. Yes, John Doe Number One has given up his fight within one week of filing his suit. His lawyer has stated, “Let’s just say we had differences in opinion of how to handle the case and decided to part ways.” The notice of dismissal was filed Tuesday, May 15, in Los Angeles.

This whole thing is making my head spin. There are just too many stories, details and facts attached to this Travolta drama. Somebody should really make some sort of timeline, but I think looking at the line of events thus far, we can all deduce a couple things. First, it looks like Travolta could be guilty of some or maybe all of these crimes he’s being accused of here, and second, it looks like his posse, the COS (Church of Scientology) is picking up the pieces and covering it up, by paying off the accusers, in exchange for silence.

I hate to make assumptions with something so serious, but it just seems odd when cases are dropped and people bow out of significant cases like this involving powerful, rich celebrities and people. It seems to happen all the time. You would think that if someone accused you of something horrific, and it wasn’t true, you would fight it with all of your being…not give out hush money to make it go away. Right?

UPDATE on 5/17/12: According to TMZ, Travolta’s second accuser has now dropped his lawsuit, just two days after his first accuser dropped theirs…more to come!
