[trigger]

BBM I agree
When I heard he waited until Chris Kyles clip was empty, that sealed the deal imo

Me to....

What makes TX so special? Do they only find mothers who drown their children not guilty by reason of insanity, or what?

Heh. This isn't about Andrea Yates.

Wow, at the quickness! I'm shocked and amazed at it. AZ needs to be so embarrassed. Wow.

I hope this brings a measure of peace to Chris and Chad's familIes.

JUST IN: TX jury found ex-Marine Eddie Ray Routh guilty of killing real-life American Sniper Chris Kyle & 1 other man

And some folks still can't be bothered to learn Chad Littlefield' s name. I cannot express enough how that irks me.

So glad he's guilty. :woot:

I didn't realize Kyle's clip was empty.
That explains so much more as well.
He knew he wouldn't win against them both. :furious:

Justice has been served. A special thank you to YESorNO and everyone else here to dedicated so much effort to this case.

These brave men were heroes in life, and will forever be remembered for their tireless dedication to veterans, and their love of family and country. They will be sorely missed.

ITA. Perhaps our distinguished Mods will add his name to this thread. I've made a respectful request.

Yes, "Sniper Chris Kyle and Veteran Chad Littlefield slain" would suffice. :twocents:

Yes, a special thank you to YesorNo. She gave us a front row seat for the trial! I am so relieved & happy about the verdict!! I'm a worrier so I never feel confident until the jury speaks.
God bless the victim's families & give them some measure of peace.

I don't believe Chad was a veteran...

Juror Christina Yeager told ABC's "Good Morning America" that Routh displayed a similar pattern in prior run-ins with police — he would become intoxicated and then tell responding officers he was a victim of post-traumatic stress disorder. "Every time something bad happened he pulled that card," Yeager said.

Savannah Guthrie interviewed Chad's parents & brother this morning on the Today Show. Irony of ironies, Chad's older brother taught Routh in school. He said that Routh has always been oppositional defiant & caused problems. Click on the link to see interview.

I tried to provide a link to a press interview with 6 of the jurors. When I click on the link, it gives a message that article is no longer available. However, that is not so.

Go to http://www.dallasnews.com . Scroll down until you see "More Latest News", click on that. Then scroll down again until you see an article entitled American Sniper jurors ex-marine knew right from wrong. There will be a picture of 6 of the jurors. If you click on that article you will be able to hear the interview.

I haven't followed the trial at all. For those of you who think the verdict was right (not just legally correct) what's your general theory of motive?

 

[MsFacetious]

He wanted his truck and was pissed off they didn't talk to him enough. :twocents:

 

[bgbonzo]

But he couldn't have thought he was going to get away with it, right? So the truck motive seems not to make sense, unless he wanted one joyride.
