Tuesday’s witnesses at Ventura’s defamation trial in U.S. District Court in St. Paul stitched together the scene at McP’s Irish Pub in Coronado, Calif., on Oct. 12, 2006, where a group of Navy SEALs were attending a wake for Michael Monsoor at the same time Ventura was attending a gathering of Navy underwater demolition team members.
Rosemary deShazo, a friend of Chris Kyle’s who attended the wake, testified that she heard Ventura make a disparaging remark about U.S. Navy SEALs similar to the one Kyle described in “American Sniper.”
“He said, ‘They probably deserved it, they die all the time,’ ” she testified.
Ventura: His lawsuit claims that the late Chris Kyle defamed the ex-governor in a 2012 book, “American Sniper.”
Under cross-examination DeShazo conceded that she was paraphrasing Ventura. But when asked by Kyle attorney Leita Walker how confident she was about the quote, she responded, “quite confident, very confident.”
DeShazo is a sister of Laura deShazo, who testified Monday that she saw Ventura punched in the bar.
Witnesses rebut Ventura's assertion that fight was a lie
