The verdict has been announced in the Chris Kyle murder trial and his killer Eddie Ray Routh has been found guilty.

Chris was the subject of the film American Sniper and he was tragically gunned down in February 2013 by Routh, a veteran who he was trying to help. The verdict was decided by a jury in less than two and a half hours.

Mr. Routh will be spending the rest of his life in prison without the possibility of parole. He also took to life of Chris‘ friend Chad Littlefield.

The use of a fake plastic baby in American Sniper has the critics and fans talking and everyone seems to agree that it was a strange choice!

A clip from the film starring Bradley Cooper and Sienna Miller is making waves around the Internet featuring the fake plastic baby and the subject has been touched upon in major publications and television programs. Some argue that the baby should have been made CGI or just cut from the scene entirely.

In a tweet (which has since been deleted), screenwriter Jason Hall explained, “hate to ruin the fun but real baby #1 showed up with a fever. Real baby #2 was no show. (Clint voice) Gimme the doll, kid.”
