STEPHENVILLE, Tex. â Eddie Ray Routh, the mentally disturbed veteran who killed Chris Kyle, the former Navy SEAL marksman who inspired the movie âAmerican Sniper,â was sentenced Tuesday to life in prison after a jury here found him guilty of murder, rejecting his claims that he was legally insane at the time.
Eddie Ray Routh barely knew Chris Kyle when he shot and killed the famed Navy SEAL sniper on a remote Texas shooting range on Feb. 2, 2013. Routh, who admitted to police that he killed Kyle and the marksmanâs friend Chad Littlefield, will have his day in court early next month. By then, news of Kyleâs life, his âunverifiableâ legacy and his tragic death will have already ricocheted around the world, thanks to the box office hit âAmerican Sniper.â.
