Sues over heroin video
Jolie takes legal action against the Daily Mail over a video of her from the 1990’s that they published online. The newspaper claims the 16-minute video, originally published by The National Enquirer, shows Jolie when she was a heroin user. According to an article published in Daily Mail on July 8, 2014, the video was taken by Franklin Meyer. Meyer claims he was Jolie’s drug dealer when she lived in New York. Although Jolie has discussed her drug problems with reporters in the past, the Times reports that she views the Daily Mail‘s publication of the video as a “gross violation of her privacy.”
