Jesse Ventura Going After Slain Navy SEAL Sniper Chris Kyle’s Widow in Court
May. 31, 2013 4:30pm Becket Adams
Noted 9/11 truther Jesse Ventura is continuing his defamation lawsuit against deceased U.S. sniper Chris Kyle by going after Taya Kyle, the slain soldier’s widow.
“Lawyers for Ventura have asked a federal court to continue his lawsuit against Chris Kyle…by substituting Kyle’s wife, Taya, as the defendant,” the Minnesota Star Tribune reports.
Kyle was killed in February when he was shot to death by a former U.S. Marine suffering from PTSD.
Ventura, most famously known for being the guy who dies 45 minutes into “The Predator,” claimed last year that the decorated former SEAL’s book, “American Sniper,” wrongly accused him of starting a California bar fight.
“Although Kyle is deceased, his ‘American Sniper’ book continues to sell and it is soon to be made into a movie,” said Ventura’s motion.
The former wrestler’s lawyer added: Because Kyle’s accusation survives his death, “it would be unjust to permit the estate to continue to profit from Kyle’s wrongful conduct and to leave Governor Ventura without redress for ongoing damage to his reputation.”
Ventura’s lawsuit stems from a claim Kyle made while promoting his book.
The former SEAL said Ventura bad-mouthed and degraded the U.S. military in front of a group of SEALs. Kyle’s accusation, if true, is all the more egregious considering the fact that the SEALs had converged on that particular to commemorate the loss of a comrade who died throwing himself on a grenade.
“He was bad-mouthing the war, bad-mouthing (former President) Bush, bad-mouthing America,” Kyle told Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly.
“He told us that we were killing innocent people over there, men women children, that we were murders,” Kyle continued, adding that he asked the B list actor to tone down the truther rhetoric just a tad.
“And then he said that we deserved to lose a few guys,” O’Reilly said.
Kyle said he responded by laying out Ventura.
“That happened? You knocked him out?” O’Reilly asked.
“Well, I knocked him down.”
Taya’s attorney on Wednesday responded to the motion, filing an official response and saying that Ventura’s move comes as “a disappointment, but no surprise.”
“Continuing this action will serve no useful purpose,” wrote Kyle’s attorney, “and likely will promote public perception of Jesse Ventura as someone who has little or no regard for the feelings and welfare of surviving family members of deceased war heroes.”
The Star Tribune reports that a hearing is slated for June 17 in U.S. District Court in Minneapolis.

What a pathetic, class-less, loser. I think another SEAL ought to knock him on his ass again.

Being knocked on his ass was probably the best thing to happen to Jesse's reputation in a looong time.
Jesse the Douche could always go back to wearing feather boas and doing steroids. ::)

What a POS.
Hopefully CK's wife will cold cock him too.
-
A baseball bat to each knee followed by stroke to the nuts would be Ventura's just desserts. What a POS! >:(

If this POS moron had the balls he thinks he has, he'd be picking a fight the local (Minnesota) chapter of CAIR/Hezbollah instead of a woman/widow of the guy dispatching them..
Dog vomit...
sCUM sucker...

On behalf of the citizens of the great state of Minnesota, I hereby apologize for Jesse Ventura, Al Franken, Paul Wellstone, Hubert Humphrey, Walter Mondale, Garrison Keillor, and any other examples of political buffoonery I may have missed. There is no excuse for the idiots my fellow Minnesotans choose to vote for and no excuse for them to be elected.

Hell compared to the rest Humphrey looks like a statesman. But then I'm from Florida and thus in no position to throw stones. ;D But seriously Jesse, WTF? Its not like you need the money. Lets say the story was a lie and the guy told it out of petty political reasons. Fine, file the suit. But to go after his widow? Dude, do want your reputation to be dragged through the mud over something real? Because this is the sure way to make that happen.
