ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — A jury awarded former Minnesota Gov. Jesse Ventura $1.8 million Tuesday in his lawsuit against the estate of “American Sniper” author Chris Kyle.
On the sixth day of deliberations, the federal jury decided that the 2012 best-selling book defamed Ventura in its description of a bar fight in California in 2006. Kyle wrote that he decked a man whom he later identified as Ventura after the man allegedly said the Navy SEALs “deserve to lose a few.”
Ventura testified that Kyle fabricated the passage about punching him. Kyle said in testimony videotaped before his death last year that his story was accurate.

good for him. never liked kyle for bragging how many people he killed. karma got him.
Good, now I can Sue Obama because he is GAY and I am not...
If Ventura thought his reputation was damaged by Kyle's statements, what does he think will happen to his reputation now that he has sued the widow of this veteran? He is a pariah and no one takes what comes out of his mouth seriously.
The truth will set you free.. but you gotta pay for it
Good for you Jesse.
Ok, Jesse now donate that money to the Veterans.
everyone is so apt to think his wife is so "innocent". She is the Plaintiff in a lawsuit filed after her husband died and is slandering MANY peoples names. She is not so innocent as the media would have you believe. Just because your husband is a seal and died does not automatically make you exempt from responsibility, nor does it entitle you to anything. Respect, yes of course but not slander and down right dirty actions.
Jesse is a first class creep taking money from a dead soldier' widow and kids.
morons, he sued kyle's ESTATE, not his wife. does it hurt to be so stupid?
