Ventura’s version of Kyle encounter contradicted
You all know the story that “Scruff Face” Jimmy Janos was knocked out by Chris Kyle in brief bar fight when Janos made the comment that Michael Mansoor probably deserved to die during Mansoor’s wake. Janos was mentioned in Chris Kyle’s book “American Sniper” which caused has-been Ventura to file a lawsuit against Kyle. When Kyle was murdered, Janos decided to sue his estate, and by extension, Kyle’s wife, Taya. Well, according to the Star-Tribune, two sisters have come forward and their version contradicts Ventura’s version of the event – that Ventura never made the comment, nor that he was KtFO.
Two sisters attending the 2006 wake of a Navy SEAL offered sworn statements filed Wednesday that could undermine former Minnesota Gov. Jesse Ventura’s claim that he was defamed in a popular book by another former Navy SEAL.
The sisters allege that one of them saw an unidentified man in a San Diego bar punch Ventura, and one sister said Ventura stated that the Navy SEAL “probably” deserved to die.
Oh-oh. At the link, there’s also a picture of the sisters with Ventura at the bar before the incident, so I guess the fact that they were there when it happened isn’t in dispute.

haha fuck nugget ventura is screwed. if he wasnt already enough of a douche, now we get proof that he is a lying douche. i can see his presidential slogan, Janos: you already know hes a liar, so send him to DC
Isn’t it nice when someone provides backup that refutes a claim like ventura’s? That’s a nice Christmas present, isn’t it?
When it’s all said and done and he’s lost, I hope Janos gets stuck with ALL of the legal fees for both sides!!
@2 I so agree. Ventura is a turd. Please let’s hope he does not run and muddy up the waters in 2016. I don’t want another election where the republicans start out with 16 or 17 candidates all trying to chew the same bone. Makes them look so bad when the Dems will already have their candidate up and running and on the stump.
Shit comes back to haunt, eh, Janos?
Shitbag indeed.
Once a lying turd, always a lying turd.
maybe obama could use him to sell obamacare to other shitbags. He would fit the mold.
Well, I guess he won’t get any money out of that book, after all.
Merry Christmas, janos.
Was at an Event with him in the late 90s. He was a fat, drunk, obnoxious piece of shit then too.
I heard he got knocked out cold.
Nice dye-job, Jimmy!!
Never paid any attention to this clown before. Apparently all we need to know is that he continued a lawsuit against a guy who died. What?? That makes absolutely no sense at all, whether the original lawsuit had merit or not.
Reminds me of an incident years ago at a local bar when one of the members of the Air Force Academy football team (ironically dressed like the cowboy in the Village People) was pushing some locals around, calling them faggots, when a dude half his size and twice his age dropped him with one punch.
I’ve still yet to come across a bully that wasn’t a pussy.
