Jesse Ventura Awarded Massive Sum After Suing Dead War Hero Chris Kyle For Absurd Reason Apparently, there are no limits to greed, and our courts are doing very little to help that. In fact, they recently sided with Jesse Ventura in favor of $1.8 million against a deceased veteran hero. According to reports, the lawsuit was first initiation when Chris Kyle, author of American Sniper, claimed that he punched Venture (a known conspiracy theorist) in the face. According to Kyle, the action was a response to claims that Ventura has said the Navy SEALs deserve to lose a few. After reading the claims, Ventura immediately filed a lawsuit claiming that the incident was completely fabricated, and he was demanding a portion of the books massive profits for defamation of character. After a 6 day trial, it appears that the jury is giving Ventura exactly what he asked fordespite Kyle giving sworn testimony that the story was true. Now, many are furious with the ruling. What do you think? Does Ventura deserve to be awarded millions?
