Angelina Jolie ‘may be suing FBI’ over investigation into son Maddox’s 2016 fight with his dad Brad Pitt on private jet
THE WAR has continued between Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt as the actress considers taking legal action against the FBI over handling her son's altercation with his father.
The incident took place on the former couple's private jet, where Brad got into a fight with Angelina, prompting their son Maddox to intervene.
According to , the Maleficent star may be the person behind a lawsuit against the federal agency over a FOIA request denied about a past investigation on a private plane.
The woman claimed to have asked for the official FBI documents from the investigation, which they have yet to hand over.
As a result, she's suing the organization, though she would like her identity to remain anonymous.
The woman's attorney, Amanda Kramer, stated that not disclosing her identity is an "impact on the privacy of her client's minor children."

Despite the indiscreetness, the mystery woman is thought to be Angelina, given how the information matches up with earlier reports about the 2016 incident.
It was claimed that the Troy actor had been drinking when the disagreement occurred when the family was traveling.
Angelina, 46, spoke to the FBI for four hours in their investigation.
She told the BBC: "I don't want to say very much about [the incident] except to say that it was a very difficult time and we are a family.

“And we’ll always be a family.”
In November 2016, Brad was cleared by the LA County Department of Children and Family Services.
The conclusion reached was "no inappropriate physical contact" between them.
The exes volunteered to have individual counseling, and Brad agreed to have a drink and drug testing - although not legally required to.
PAST DRUG USE
The Once Upon a Time in Hollywood actor hasn’t commented about the allegations but has been open about his drinking and drug use.
In a May 2017 GQ interview, Brad, 58, revealed he had quit drinking and smoking cannabis.
He said: “I can't remember a day since I got out of college when I wasn't boozing or had a spliff, or something.
“And I'm running from feelings. I stopped everything except boozing when I started my family. But even this last year [...] I was boozing too much."
He added: “It's just become a problem. You either deny them all of your life, or you answer them and evolve.”
MESSY DIVORCE
Angelina filed for divorce from Brad in September 2016 - just two years after they wed and 12 years into their partnership.
Citing "irreconcilable differences," she requested sole physical custody of their six children, Maddox, 20; Pax, 18; Zahara, 17; Shiloh, 15 and twins Vivienne and Knox, 13.
At the time of the separation, a rep for the actress said: “This decision was made for the health of the family.”
