From trial twitter The Gold Patrol:
...according to records, Routh NEVER saw combat and never off ship in Haiti. (From me: There ya go the story about his bad time in Haiti... all lies again.)

 

[Dogface]

Yes thanks so very much yesorno!

And I know I couldn't have been on the jury,it makes me so mad that routh is able to sit there and ask for his handcuffs to be taken off, or that he can write notes sitting in court, while his victims families sit there hoping to fill a small part of the gigantic hole in their hearts he directly caused with this trial. Then I feel so very awful for his own mother, she will undoubtedly live with a huge amount of guilt because she sought Kyle to help her son. The ripple effect of damage he has done is so far reaching. I think if he had an ounce of humanity and dignity in him he would have spared these families a trial and pled guilty. He knows what he did is wrong, we have seen that testified to, and he should man up and take his punishment.

Also I was surprised the trial was going today, I thought it would be a court holiday!

 

[faw720]

I know someone who was in court the day Routh was offered a plea deal of LWOP. Reportedly he literally growled "I want my day in court". IMO, in his own mind it's never been about anything other than avoiding responsibility for his crimes. Apparently he thinks, saying "sorry" is all he needs to do. Then he has the nerve to say that he believes Chad & Chris have forgiven him. Wonder how he came to that conclusion?
