welcome back. more now on the fox news alert on the american sniper murder trial. the man who killed chris kyle and chad little field convicted of capital murder in texas. eddy ray routh will spend the rest of his life in prison without the possibilities of parole. his lawyers tried to argue he was insane when he shot kyle and littlefield in a texas range two years ago. the jury not buying it delivering a guilty verdict in just about two hours. there were no surprises here. i said it earlier this evening, the jury wants to deliberate after having such a long day as they did today. usually they would want to get home and absorb it. clearly they knew they were on
brat through the night. eddie arouth he thought about shooting them in the car. if there was a crash he might have died in that-kra and been injured. he knew what he was doing. why would the defense try to plead insanity? he knew his actions were wrong. they were in quick sand. i am not sure who came up with this decision. it didn t make any sense. it wasn t founded in fact. it wasn t evidence to prove legal insanity. did he have issues he was in and out of mental hospitals, yes that does not equal mental insanity and legal insanity, not the same. is there any real repro kugs that eddy ray routh s mom knew he had problems and wanted him
tonight. in his victim impact statement littlefield s brother speaking to routh directly calling him an american disgrace saying your claims of ptsd have been an insult to every veteran who served with honor disgracing a proud military. she stormed out during closing arguments cursing and slamming her hands on the wall at routh s mother for never mentioning his son s history of violence before he took him to a gun range. taya has been in court every day and has been the first to testify. now we are hearing that emotional testimony released overnight. taya on the stand reliving the last time she ever spoke to her husband. he would say hey, babe. i just had a quick question for him if he wanted to go out with our friends for dinner that night. i just said hey, i know you are working doing your stuff do you want to go out with my friends for dinner. he goes yeah that would be fine. i said okay. i said are you okay? he was like yup. that s not common for him. usually our
want to go out with my friends for dinner. he goes yeah that would be fine. i said okay. i said are you okay? he was like yup. that s not common for him. usually our service sayingses are conversations are more. he was just quiet. a lot of times that was the case with him it would be like i am at a point where i don t know if i should say more because obviously there s something more or if i should just he s probably dealing with it and go. chris kyle s family not yet releasing a public statement. eddy eddie ray routh s attorneys planning to appeal his conviction. the jury reaching a verdict in less than three hours choosing to deliberate late last night rather than bait until today. a clear indication maybe of what they were thinking. joining me now is rebecca rosewood
