After two years of legal battles, Angelina Jolie has decided to drop her lawsuit against Brad Pitt regarding the abuse allegations she made in 2016. Specifically, the Hollywood actress has dropped the lawsuit against the FBI after the agency concluded that Brad Pitt had not committed any acts of family abuse in the investigation conducted in 2016.
On September 27, 2024, Angelina Jolie officially requested the court to dismiss the lawsuit, with both sides agreeing to bear their own legal costs. Earlier, the FBI launched an investigation after Brad Pitt was accused of abusing Angelina Jolie and their children during a flight from Europe to Los Angeles in 2016. However, the investigation concluded in November 2016 with the finding that Brad Pitt had not engaged in any abusive behavior.
Angelina Jolie disagreed with the FBI’s conclusion and filed a lawsuit in April 2022, claiming that the FBI’s investigation was incomplete and lacked transparency. In the lawsuit, she demanded that the FBI provide further explanation regarding the results and the announcement of the investigation’s closure.
Although the lawsuit garnered significant attention over the years, Angelina Jolie decided to drop the case and not pursue it any further. A source mentioned that Angelina Jolie‘s continued litigation might have been part of her fight for custody of their children, but after two years without progress, she chose to let go.
Earlier, Angelina Jolie had accused Brad Pitt of physical abuse toward their children, including choking one child and slapping another during their flight from France to California. Brad Pitt strongly denied all allegations, claiming that his ex-wife was tarnishing his reputation.
The lives of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt after their split remain a topic of public interest. The couple, who were together for more than a decade and had six children, saw their marriage last only two years. Since their divorce, disputes over custody and shared assets, particularly the Chateau Miraval winery, have remained unresolved.
Currently, the couple’s children live with Angelina Jolie, while Brad Pitt has visitation rights. The children have also dropped the Pitt surname and no longer maintain regular contact with their father. The relationship between the Pitt and Jolie families continues to be a hot topic in the media.
