What does the now widely reported Jolie Pitt Divorce mean for the children?
According to Us Weekly, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie “spoke with the L.A. County Department of Children and Family Services [DCFS ] immediately following a talked-about incident aboard their private jet.” (1)
First, Angelina Jolie filed for divorce from husband Brad Pitt according to reports. Then rumors began swirling around allegations of mistreatment by Pitt of the kids. This has been reported as the possible cause for Jolie to file for divorce.
Shortly following this filing, TMZ reported Pitt is angry at Jolie because she has “unleashed hell.” The report says Pitt thinks that Jolie is putting the family and children at risk because paparazzi are circling their home. (2)
TMZ has also reported that they have learned, “child abuse allegations against Brad Pitt have been referred over to the FBI.” (3)
Pitt has gone on record saying he is “very saddened by this.” (2) According to reports, Angelina Jolie is seeking sole physical custody of their six children, offering only visitation rights to Brad Pitt.
Darren Kavinoky
Attorney Darren Kavinoky weighs in on the story about the children’s welfare possibly being in question by DCFS. Says Kavinoky, “They don’t care about anyone’s celebrity. When it comes to DCFS cases, the guiding principle is the welfare of the little ones.” (4)

Kavinoky also adds, “No special treatment is given. Celebrity can be a double edge sword. Sometimes people are treated worse because they are a celebrity. The kids in such an investigation would be assigned their own lawyers. Drug and alcohol evaluators are relied upon for their expertise to provide insight.”
