Jesse Ventura wins $1.8million defamation

[Freewill]

Whow, Ventura is blaming Kyle because people got sick of listening to him and he had to sue the widow, whow, just whow. I just wonder what the jury was thinking.

Chris Kyle, a former Navy SEAL, claimed in his book American Sniper that he punched Ventura at a SEAL bar in California in 2006
Kyle claimed on Fox News that Ventura, himself a former SEAL, had said the SEALs 'deserved to lose a few, over their behavior in Iraq
Kyle was murdered by a fellow veteran in February 2013
Ventura then sued Kyle's widow Taya Kyle, who inherited the $6million fortune made from the book

Kyle was murdered by a fellow veteran in February 2013

Sounds like this guy had a habit of pissing people off...especially other veterans.

 

[PaintMyHouse]

Libel pays...

 

[Lakhota]

Ventura is a whiner. Must be running low on funds.

 

[Indeependent]

It's a conspiracy; just ask him.

He came across as an egotistical braggart who couldn't quite disguise his love for the kill.

JV is a piece of shit. I'm not happy to hear about this.

The veteran was suffering from ptsd Kyle was trying to help him.

 

[blackhawk]

They can be thankful I was not on the jury I wouldn't have awarded Venture 1.8 cents for his reputation.

 

[blackhawk]

I'm not 100% sure about this but I did hear that because the decision was not unanimous the judge was going to be going back over the case and could reverse the decision as I said not sure about this I hope it's true,

Who up to this time thought Ventura was an ex-Navy SEAL?

From Wikpedia: In a motion filed by Kyle's attorney in August 2012 to dismiss two of the suit's three counts, declarations by five former SEALs and the mothers of two others supported Kyle's account.

Yeah I knew that he was I don't know that it's something the SEAL'S are bragging about though.

Actually, he is not an ex-Navy SEAL. UDT.

Suing the widow of a vet ......

Nice Venture. Very nice.

 

[Avatar4321]

I can believe he won. Why? Because the man he is suing is dead. It's very hard to get the other person's side of the story out when they can't tell it.

What I can't believe is why the man would think suing a widow somehow makes his character look good. He looks like a piece of trash to me.

Kyle made a video deposition.

If Kyle lied and slandered Ventura, I don't blame Ventura for wanting to clear his name.

 

[Missourian]

Suing a widow, what a douche.

I would say that this sullied his reputation more than Kyle ever could...but when your reputation is already below sewer level, how much lower can you go.

So are you suggesting THIS helped "restore" his name?

The jury found Kyle lied. Should Ventura have let such a scurrilous smear go unchallenged?

Either that or CONFIRM you're an asshole by suing the widow of a murdered veteran ....
