mr. littlefield were some type of pig assassins hybrid picion sent here to kill people." dunn said routh told him he felt threatened when he saw kyle's weapons and he testified he said "he thought he would have to kill them or be killed." in court today, the victims' family members became visibly upset when details of the shootings were discussed. scott, if the jury of 10 women and two men find routh guilty, he could spend life in prison. >> pelley: manuel, thanks very much. tonight, the embattled police chief of ferguson, missouri said the national guard stood by and did nothing as riots threatened his city. after the fatal shooting of an unarmed black man by a white police officer. chief tom jackson said that today in his first network interview. federal investigations of the shooting and of the department are wrapping up, and dean reynolds sat down with the chief today. >> reporter: ferguson police chief tom jackson says his department is misunderstood. did you discover a racial problem in the department? >> no. >> reporter: no? >> no, there's not a rational problem in

mr. littlefield, was very invested in ptsd.on the other side as to why he may not get an insanity verdict. >> jurors are reluctant to cut anyone a break who admittedly did something deeply, deeply horrible. and that's what's going on here. we have someone who admittedly killed two human beings and jurors come to a case like that, and they are not filled with sympathy. the paradox here, of course, is that the worse his behavior the more chance of an insanity defense. the more irrational, the more inexplicable. now you have the fact not just of the movie but of the v.a. scandals that have been going on for the past few months where a jury might be predisposed to say, the v.a. really screwed up. they're the ones that should have kept this guy medicated, locked up. >> they failed to admit him is one of the allegations. but then again, you can have pts and not be insane. most of them don't commit violence. most of their anger is directed inward. >> i think this is going to come down to the battle of the experts. if the defense does

mr. littlefield were pig assassins hired to kill people. he said he felt threatened when he saw kyle's weapons and he said he thought he would have to kill them or be killed. in court family mens of the victims became visibly upset when details of the shootings were discussed. if the jury of ten women and two men are found guilty, he could spend life in prison. for "cbs this morning: saturday," manuel bojorquez, stephensville, texas. >>> cbs legal analyst rikki klieman joins us now. >> what entertainment. they're showing the movie three miles from the courthouse. tell us what's going on. as manuel mentioned some people who have testified include his family. >> indeed they include his family. what you look at is where the insanity defense all maltby lays, which is it's not only an skpirt who would testify on above of the defendant that he was suffered from schizophrenia and therefore did not know right from wrong, but you have family members who have seen him, you have friends who have seen him. and it's a process of three hospitalizations.

mr. littlefield were there almost as mental health workers.y routh was suffering from a mental illness. that's what the jury is going to hear in closing here that they were aware -- not that it is their fault. of course it is not their fault. they never had an opportunity to defend themselves. they were shot they were murdered in cold blood. but in terms of the person who did it was he mentally ill? i think everyone would agree that there had been diagnosed mental illness. the question is did the mental illness cause him not to know right from wrong. >> quickly before we go, some are wondering why the death penalty isn't on the table here. >> death penalty was taken off the table by the state of texas in order to ensure a conviction i believe, to make sure that there is no sympathy at all in terms of skewing how this case is looked at. if he's convicted, he'll go to prison for life. >> more to come today. peter johnson jr. thanks for the insight. >>> they're like girl scouts but they're not selling cookies. watch. >> white policemen are killin

mr. littlefield well-respected people in that community.support and affection for victims of crime. and i thought that on a lot of counts the defense counsel didn't make the point they needed to make in terms of insanity. the point was, that the defendant had in fact suffered from delusions in the past. i was talking with a colleague here earlier today, there should have been, in my view, not to second guess the lawyers, a cavalcade of witnesses doctors to talk about the fact that they believed that he was insane. >> they brought one witness. >> i read the testimony, and in some ways, it was persuasive. in other ways it absolutely wasn't. >> do you think the jury -- you say you thought they might have come back quicker. do you think the jury, going in the jury room. they thought to themselves if we say he's not guilty he could go to a mental institution. >> it depends on how well they know the law. i believe jurors want to be fair. but if they're aware that when someone says that to another juror,b they have a consciousness of that. they sa

mrs. littlefield, obviously this story, this case has received national attention because chris kyle was so well-known. what has it been like for you and your family to go through this terrible ordeal in such a public way with all of these national headlines and even a movie focused on this case? >> it's been focused on chris kyle and because chad was not in the movie and the attention was not focused on him, we think it helped the case. when they wanted to change of venue, they had to remember that two men were murdered that night and chad had not had the publicity that chris had. it was difficult for us because we had to remain quiet because we didn't want to jeopardize the case in any way. now is the time that we want to honor and talk about our precious son, chad. >> mr. middlefield, he deserves to be remembered. what would you want the world to know about the kind of man he was? >> well chad was a quiet man. he was a good listener. he and chris worked out together. they were soccer pops. that's where they met. chris had some weights and chad wanted to go work out. he wanted to help the

mr. littlefield, it makes for a compelling case but understand this is not a who done it case. it's what motivated you to do it. and if the defense can establish not withstanding the emotion that he did not know right from wrong because of the psychosis, it neutralizes their testimony. >> can i say one thing before you hit the gavel? getting yelled at by the judge. the people in the control room. we're going to be doing this every day because it's very complex. this was just the first day. and still i'm going to tilt the scales towards the prosecution, because insanity defense, 1% of the cases, there's a lot going on and there was a lot offered yesterday that showed as paul said this man knew what was going on in the moment he was wrong about the reality and the defense has a lot of work to do. you've helped us understand things that are not easy to understand especially for this jury. >> if i had to tip the scale, it would be for the defense based on the psychosis of the defendant. >> you may be the best looking, but you're not in control of the board, my friend. >> that's you

littlefield. for the first time, we can see and hear what transpired in the room where mr. routh was first interrogated. ed lavandera has all of that. >> reporter: this is eddie ray routh confessing to the murders, wearing the clothes he wore to the country side country range that day. chad littlefield's blood still staining his boots. >> what happened out there today other than shooting sports? >> i was reasonable and fair with them boys. i can't just keep eating my soul up about this. you know, you can't just keep letting people eat your soul up for free. you know. >> it's not what it's about. it's about having a soul that you have to you for yourself and there are. i do have a ton of people that are eating on my soul right now. >> you talk to your sister today. >> i told her i had to kill men today. it wasn't a want to. i had to, a need to. >> reporter: a jury heard from chris kyle's wife, taya. >> who were you married to prior to february 2nd, 2013? >> chris kyle. i'm sorry. i'm not nervous. i'm just emotional. >> reporter: emotional as she remembered the last time she s
