Reporter officers arrested this 25yearold former marine, eddie ray routh, after a police chase saturday night. They say routh turned the gun on kyle and a friend, 35yearold chad littlefield, murdering them both. His family told them he was having trouble readjusting to life at home after years of war. Thats something kyle spoke about frequently. You dont have an identity. You have to learn a whole new way to act. Reporter kyle volunteered to help vets suffering with posttraumatic stress disorder. He knew the stress of combat as well as anyone. He served four deployments, won seven medals of bravery and killed more than 150 people. He was the deadliest sniper in u. S. Military history. I loved the job, you know, the guys, the camaraderie. It came down to where i had to choose them or my wife and kids. I couldnt have both anymore because id already messed that up. So i chose the family. Reporter on the home front kyle became a bestselling author. In his autobiography american sniper, he writes of shooting so many iraqi insurgents they nicknamed him the devil and placed a 20,000 bounty on his head. To survive all of that only to be killed here at home. Tonight that young marine faces two counts of capital murder, one for each of the men who was trying to help him heal. David . Ryan owens tonight, thank you. Navy s. E. A. L. Chris kyle often said himself how difficult it was for troops to return from war. From serving the greater good, he said, overseas, to serving their own good once home. And this number tonight, nearly 20 of returning troops suffer from symptoms of posttraumatic stress, and theyre the ones we know about. Abcs chief Global Affairs correspondent Martha Raddatz in the middle east tonight reporting in on what just might be an invisible epidemic. Reporter for our veterans, for anyone suffering posttraumatic stress, it is a feeling of powerlessness, numbness, your mind frozen in battles long ago. I couldnt stop thinking about iraq. I really didnt care any more. I just felt empty. I was just a shell walking. Reporter former marine brendan schnitzel is one of 70,000 Service Members in the last decade who have been diagnosed with posttraumatic stress disorder. 70,000. With it can come depression, substance abuse, anger management, suicide. I was constantly feeling anxious. I constantly felt like something bad was going to happen. Reporter it is too early to tell whether ptsd or Mental Health issues contributed to todays horrific murders, but it has happened before. In 2007 a mentally unstable Army Sergeant went on a killing rampage in a combat stress facility at his base in iraq. And retired Staff Sergeant robert miltonberger who received a silver star for saving countless lives in a hellish 2004 battle in iraq was later diagnosed with ptsd. He says he now avoids firearms, fearing he could hurt someone. If i had a gun and someone was threatening me, i could picture me shooting him and i can see the bullets going in him and the blood coming out and all that. Reporter ptsd is not new, but with tens of thousands now coming home, the fear is that we still dont know enough about it. We are in the dark in our ability to treat posttraumatic stress to a level that we can guarantee most individuals who have it can recover from it. And martha joins us now from the mideast tonight where shes spent the decade covering those wars. What struck us today was that chris kyle, known for his outreach, known for helping soldiers traumatized by war. Youve got to wonder if he couldnt get through, what should we be doing as a nation, what do we need to be doing . I think what we have to do is exactly what chris kyle wanted to do. There has to be some sort of outreach to americas veterans. We have to figure out what the problem is. Some of the people in that piece, two of the young men, have been in therapy, intense therapy. Theyve turned their lives around. So it can work, it does work. We cant look at our veterans as victims. We cant look at them all as crazy. Therapy does work. We just have to figure out what kind of therapy and take care of them when they do come home. All right, martha, i know youll stay on this in the coming days and weeks. Our thanks to you tonight. We do move on this evening and to alabama back here at home where it is now day six of the hostage drama. That 5yearold boy being held in an underground bunker.

Police say the man is believed to be in his 50s. So far they havent released any other information about him or his motive. Were told the queen wasnt home at the time. In the end, nobody was seriously injured. David. Still some terrifying pictures going viral. Thank you.

Last night here we told you about the gruesome discovery. Tonight Nick Schifrin with more on the investigation from turkey. Reporter 33yearold sarai sierra is dead. But the mysteries in her case remain unsolved. Today plainclothes detectives scoured for clues. She died from a blow to the head, but they dont know who killed her or why. Her body was found in those trees right behind me. You can see the police are still here. This is a pretty isolated area. On this side theres a dropoff, on this side a train track. The theory is she was killed somewhere else and her body brought here. Police are combing through hundreds of hours of surveillance video. This is the last time she was seen walking through a mall one day before she was due home. She stayed in this basement apartment. Its a mostly working class neighborhood. One of the intriguing mysteries to this case is why would she leave her cell phone, medical records, even her passport behind in her room. Police say she didnt get caught up in drugs or trafficking and are questioning at least 11 suspects. Sarai exchanged emails with one of those suspects the day she vanished, but hes been released. So police along with the fbi continue to comb through every clue in a case that very much is still open. David . Nick schifrin reporting in again from turkey tonight, thank you.

He also took on football on this super bowl sunday, in particular concussion concerns . Thats right. You know, he applauded the nfl for prompt promising to do more on concussions. But heres what he had to say when he was asked what he thought about having his own child play football. Id have to think about it. Its hard to say no to a kid when they have a passion for something. And ive got daughters. They dont have a passion for football. It is a great sport. I am a huge fan, but theres no doubt that some of the concerns that weve learned about when it comes to concussions have to give parents pause. David, he said the nfl is different, that these men, they get paid very well, but that children really need protection against the dangers on the field. Thank you. As you know, well have more on concussions. Our own investigation in moments. But first t super bowl itself.

Jackie and Jack Harbaugh have spent a lifetime guiding their boys to this historymaking moment. Still just last week mom joked that she was hoping for a tie. Well, i think that the nfl changed that rule. I think if it ends in a tie, it will be a tie. Reporter but they know only one team can win, and so only one of their sons can be the winning coach, and at the end of the night, brother will still face brother. Ive given absolutely no consideration to the post game handshake or bear hug or anything else. Have not thought about that for one second, jerry. Have you, jim . I have not.

Tonight terry moran on one companys product. Can it protect against concussions . Reporter Jennifer Brannen is like a lot of moms whose sons play football. She worried about head injuries but supports tyler, her boy. As a mom, you may want to put bubble wrap around them and protect them forever, but thats not going to happen. Reporter now a burgeoning Cottage Industry has emerged online and in Stores Selling products to parents and players who are worried about the risk of football concussions. One company, unequal technologies, has risen to the fore with nfl endorsements i dont feel like im taking a risk. Reporter and three blunt words on every box it sells, Concussion Reduction Technology. Rob vito is the founder and ceo. These athletes need to take control of their own safety. Reporter his products, strips of composite material including bulletproof kevlar, that you glue into a helmet, but some experts are skeptical. The guy would have you believe its his magical material. Theres nothing magical about it. Reporter Dave Halstead is technical director at the southern Impact Research center, one of the leading testing labs for Sports Equipment in the nation. Heres the problem the modern football helmet already offers excellent protection against direct hits, which produce sharp linear forces against the skull. Halsteads testing shows the unequal strips can reduce the severity from certain angles like the front but not from other angles. And doctors believe many football concussions today are caused by shearing Rotational Forces when the head snaps back and swerves around on the neck and the brain slams against the inside of the skull. There is no proof that products like unequal technologys strips protects against those injuries, the ones suspected of frequently causing concussions. So you say Concussion Reduction Technology. Is that what youre doing . Our claim is that we help reduce the possibility of head injury. Thats our claim. We never mention the word concussion. Reporter Concussion Reduction Technology. Exactly. Thats the name of the product. Reporter but youre claiming that it reduces concussions or thats the name of your product . Mmhmm. Reporter it doesnt. Were not claiming that. Reporter even though your product is called Concussion Reduction Technology . Correct. But were not claiming that. One is a name and one is a claim. And our claim is that we help reduce the possibility of head injury. Reporter after that interview, the Company Changed its packaging, actually removing the words Concussion Reduction Technology from the box. David, its now just called crt. They changed the labeling after your nightline investigation. But in the meantime, this is a real concern for parents. It would seem that products like these play into the fears of parents who just really want to make their kids safe. Absolutely. Parents need to read the fine print on these products, see what theyre actually claiming. Learn about concussions to see what science understands about them. And most important, perhaps, advocate for rules changes that will keep our kids safer. But in the meantime, youve been looking into all these products, and no magic bullet. There is no magic bullet for this problem. Terry moran, thanks to you tonight. When we come back, not just the super bowl tonight. Theres the other one unfolding this sunday, the puppy bowl.
