The Reason the Navy SEAL Who Killed bin Laden Decided to Speak Out

For the man who shot and killed the most wanted terrorist in the world, opening up to the world about the night Osama bin Laden died was about closure.

In a highly anticipated Fox News special focused on him, former Navy SEAL Robert O’Neill spoke of the responsibility he thought he had to tell the story of the bin Laden raid — and the impact his doing so would have on the families who lost loved ones 13 years ago during the Sept. 11 terror attacks.

O’Neill, a highly decorated 16-year veteran, says of the horror at the World Trade Center in one segment of “The Man Who Killed Usama bin Laden”:

“The reason we left on a mission knowing we were probably going to die, more than likely not come home, was for the single mom that went to work on Tuesday morning and later that morning, she made the conscious decision to jump to her death because it’s better than burning alive.”
