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.
This is a tragedy for all of us. I send my deepest prayers and thoughts to his wife and two children, Scott McEwen, co-author of American Sniper, said in a statement to ABC News. Remembering Kyle for the number of Iraqi insurgents he killed misstates his legacy, McEwen said. His legacy is not one of being the most lethal sniper in United States history, McEwen said. Though Kyle was active in FITCO Cares, the director of the foundation said Kyle and Routh had not met through the organization.
