American Sniper Murder Trial

I can't even begin to imagine what it would be like to have someone to love right beside you and the next minute they're gone forever. In light of the recent movie, American Sniper, many people have learned about who most say is the United States best sniper's tragic death. Chris Kyle and his friend Chad Littlefield after they left the military took a liking to helping fellow ex military members to cope with the repercussions of being on the battlefield. Thats exactly what they were doing the morning they were killed.
The two had been asked to help fellow veteran Eddie Ray Routh, but the help session ended with two people dead and one in jail. Finally, Eddie's trial is here and he is finally going to be brought to justice. The whole situation makes me so sick. Whether you're mentally ill or not how can you just brutally murder to innocent people? Especially two who are trying to help you? I guess I can't really give much of an opinion since i've never been in the military and i've never felt the heavy burden of the repercussions but it still just makes my heart heavy to think of Chris Kyle's family who will never get to see their dad/husband again.
Chris's wife Taya is taking an active role in the trial of her husband's killer and she says that she won't sleep until she knows that her husband's murderer is put away for good. You can't even begin to imagine what Taya is going through right now. To lose someone you love who you worried about for years and she finally had him back home safe, only to have him taken from her in the least likely place. It just makes me want this awful man brought to justice even more.
Reports about the whole scene were leaked as well as a video of Eddie Ray Routh admitting to using pot the morning of the murders and saying that he knows exactly what he did and that it was wrong but he did it because they weren't talking to him. How do you kill two people because they weren't talking to you and then knowing what you did was wrong but being totally okay with it? I mean he nonchalantly left the scene of the crime and drove Chris Kyle's truck to his uncle's house where he confessed to his uncle.
I can only hope that this trial goes quickly and seamlessly and that the jury is able to make the right decision based on the amount of evidence that is available to them.
