The man accused of murdering Chris Kyle, the American Sniper, has denied killing him

Prosecutors rested their case on Tuesday in the trial of a former Marine charged with killing "American Sniper" author Chris Kyle and another man.
Eddie Ray Routh is accused of killing the former Navy SEAL and Kyle's friend Chad Littlefield at a rural shooting range in February 2013. Before resting, prosecutors played a recorded phone call between Routh and a reporter from The New Yorker magazine in which Routh talks about the events, The Dallas Morning News reported.
"I had to take care of business. I took care of business, and then I got in the truck and left," Routh said in the call.

The man accused of murdering Chris Kyle, the American Sniper, has denied killing him. Eddie Ray Routh's lawyers have put forward a defense of insanity.
Routh also said he was annoyed Littlefield wasn't shooting.
"Are you gonna shoot? Are you gonna shoot? It's a shooting sport. You shoot," Routh said in the phone call. "That's what got me all riled up."

Kyle served four tours in Iraq and made more than 300 kills as a sniper for SEAL Team 3, according to his own count. He earned two Silver Stars for valor. After leaving the military, he volunteered with veterans facing mental health problems, often taking them shooting.
He wrote a best-selling memoir that was the basis for the box office smash "American Sniper."
Routh, whose attorneys are mounting an insanity defense, has pleaded not guilty. The trial has drawn intense interest, partly because of an Oscar-nominated film based on Kyle's memoir.
Kyle and Littlefield were taking Routh on the outing at the request of the troubled veteran's mother, Jodi Routh, who said under cross-examination by prosecutors Tuesday she didn't know Kyle's plan. Asked if she regretted not telling Kyle of threats Routh had made to kill himself and his family, she said she just wanted help for him.
Family members say Routh suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder from serving in Iraq and in Haiti after the devastating 2010 earthquake. Defense attorneys say Routh, who was taking anti-psychotic medication, was insane when Kyle and Littlefield took the former Marine to the shooting range to provide support and camaraderie.
Routh, his lawyers say, believed the men planned to kill him. "If I did not take down his soul, he was going to take down mine," Routh said of Kyle in a videotaped confession showed in court Monday.
Routh also said in the interview with Texas Ranger Danny Briley, "I'm just sorry for what I've done."
Prosecutors said Routh was a troubled drug user but he knew right from wrong. Briley, who interviewed Routh in the hours after the killings, testified Monday that Routh confessed to shooting the men. He also testified that he believed Routh knew his actions were wrong.
Criminal law experts say a verdict hinges on whether the defense can prove Routh was insane at the time and did not know the killings at a gun range constituted a crime.
Last week, a former deputy testified that he overheard Routh after he'd been taken into custody say that he shot the men because they wouldn't talk to him as the three drove together to the shooting range.
A Texas Ranger police officer has testified that authorities found marijuana, a near-empty bottle of whiskey and medication for schizophrenia while searching Routh's home after the shooting.
The testimony could show that Routh deliberately put himself into a violent state, said Park Dietz, a forensic psychiatrist who examined Andrea Yates, who was found not guilty in 2006 by reason of insanity in the drowning deaths of her five children.
