John Paul Getty III (; born Eugene Paul Getty II; November 4, 1956 – February 5, 2011) was the grandson of the American-born British oil tycoon J. Paul Getty (1892–1976), who was once the richest man in the world. While living in Rome in 1973, he was kidnapped by the 'Ndrangheta, an Italian criminal organization based in Calabria, and held for a $17 million ransom. His grandfather was reluctant to pay, but, after John Paul Getty III's severed ear was received by a newspaper, the grandfather negotiated a payment of $2.2 million, and Getty was released five months after being kidnapped. Getty subsequently developed an addiction to alcohol and other drugs, leading to an overdose and stroke in 1981 (age 25) which left him severely disabled for the rest of his life.
