..Chris Kyle murder trial is underway..

[Whisky]

.
but what irritates me is that the press hardly mentions the fact that another, Chad Littlefield, was also killed by this POS routh

shades of the giffords shooting - 6 were killed at that "event" but there's never a mention of those folks or the dozen or so who were wounded

total BS

This Routh was a certifiable KOOK...........

• From about 2000 through 2006 — Routh killed small animals and expressed an interest in watching them die, making statements that he “liked to hear them take their last breath.”
• Around Jan. 2 or 3, 2012 — Routh was arrested for driving while intoxicated, convicted and served a short sentence. His driver’s license was suspended.
• Sept. 2, 2012 — Routh was drinking and smoking marijuana at a family gathering when he got into an argument with his father. A physical altercation ensued and Routh threatened family members and threatened to kill himself. He was taken to a psychiatric hospital.
• Jan. 19, 2013 — Routh held his girlfriend and her roommate hostage at their apartment, threatening them with a knife and sword. Routh was taken to a psychiatric hospital.
• Around Feb. 2, 2013 — Routh made threats against officers who transported him to Erath County Jail following the shootings. The defendant was smoking and drinking alcohol the morning of the shootings, Feb. 2, 2013, and had again threatened his girlfriend with a knife.
• June 2013 — Routh flooded his cell, pulled TV and phone cords out of the wall and put his mattress in the shower. He also told a jail officer he was “trying to be good, but being an ass is more fun” and expressed a wish to get out and kill other people.

Why does this fuckstick get a TV in his cell?

It's humane, to a non- humane person.
Don't understand it myself. They think they have a right to nice things when they get locked up.

He admitted to the murder, and is using insanity as his defense. I hope he's sane enough to get the needle.

 

[jrbfishn]

If all the above is correct, it sounds like he knew exactly what he was doing. And enjoyed it. He ain't insane, just sadistic.

I will be shock if anything but death by lethal injection is not the end result.

 

[subseashooter]

The prosecution has already stated that they don't intend to push for the death penalty.

I'm torn....really feel like he deserves much worse than a needle.

Prepare to be shocked. I was under impression the DA is not asking for death penalty. I'm guessing they didn't want to risk a jury nullification based on their sympathy for defendant being a PTSD vet.

I am shocked. Not going for DP weakens the case. As a juror would expect it to be a DP case. For prosecution to not go DP, makes it look to me the juror that the PROSECUTION is sympathetic, and NG/RI is the verdict he wants.

I brought many people to our club range and can assure you that if a friend had been drinking, doping or acting in an irresponsible way, he wouldn't get within 5 miles of our range! Kyle KNEW this guy was off his rocker. Why did he bring him to the range?

I would have changed plans, diverted the trip to Dairy Queen or the Arches where we could talk about his service connected issues in a safe environment.

That mistake cost both men their lives. What a damned shame.

It is a very sad thing that both Kyle and Littlefield ignored their own assessment that the guy was nuts-o-bananas and allowed him access to a weapon.

What is more odd is that a man with a violent past held 2 people hostage in the middle of January was out and abut walking as a free man in February. WTF is wrong with the system and why should and do people continue to have faith in it.

 

[Tejano Scott]

I heard an excerpt from opening argument. Defense counsel read the jury one of the last texts Kyle ever sent. It was to his buddy Littlefield who was sitting in the truck while the 3 of them drove out to the gun range. The text read, "this dude is straight up nuts." To which Littlefield replies, "he's right behind me. Watch my 6."

 

[Saltyag2010]

Wow. Dude should have been in a nut house.

 

[Renegade]

Not to blame victims, but they made some really bad decisions.

My dad and I had that same conversation. He's a disabled vet and sees both sides of this. When I told him about those texts, he listed about 30 things they could have done that would have kept at least one of them alive.

Everybody is a fucking Monday Morning Quarterback.

 

[winchster]

Everybody is a $#@!ing Monday Morning Quarterback.

No joke.

For this guy to get a jump on, not just one but two, men with their skill set that never even got their weapons off safe tells me it was more than I'm qualified to judge.

 

[Shotgun Jeremy]

But....it's thursday

 

[Tejano Scott]

I mean absolutely no disrespect to either of these two men. I apologize if my post came off as MMQB.
