Its going to be a long couple of years for Hernandez. In the most recent case/charges, it is said that his friend is cooperating with the authorities. Seems like a slam dunk, however, those sort of witnesses can be shaky and stories can change. Cross examination will be fun.

This double homicide in 2012 meant that the Patriots had a murderer among their ranks competing out on the field for them. If Aaron Hernandez can kill somebody over a simple perceived "diss" then what's not to say he wasn't capable of settling a score with an opposing player during the heat of battle by whipping out a stilletto underneath his sock like Terrell Owens did with a sharpie and killing them on the spot? The Patriots can claim ignorance to all of this but I say 'nuts' to that because they already knew of this psychopath's "issues" while at Florida yet still chose to take a Machiavellian "the ends justify the means" approach and welcome him into their ranks, all the while selling that fradulent "Patriot Way" mantra to an fawning media and a league office who went along with it for the good 'wholesome' PR it engendered for the league, however fradulent it was. So, since it's obvious that Robert Kraft and the New England Patriot organization are not adverse to "looking the other way" when standard due dilligence reveals a 1st round talent dropping into the 4th round with no takers, there's absolutely no reason to think the New England Patriot organization aren't harboring another murderer(s) among their ranks. To that end, I think at the very least that Woody Johnson should take any and all precautions to ensure the safety of his coaches and players by installing metal detectors outside the visitor's locker room whenever New England comes to Metlife and require all Patriot players, coaches and staff to pass through them prior to taking the field-no exceptions. Furthermore, "upstairs" in the luxury boxes, should Robert Kraft choose to attend the game, all members of his entourage should be throughly screened prior to being admitted into the stadium by security. Lastly, since the Patriots have proven capable of putting a murderer out on the field and in doing so endangering not only the safety but the LIVES of any and all opposing players, then a proactive common sense approach should also extend towards fans of such a team, and to that end, Jets fans encountering any Patriot-garbed New England fan at Metlife should keep the real 'Patriot Way' in mind and "get off first" least they bring their Aaron Hernandez-like traits to the surface. Remember this: Aaron Hernandez has taken the life of a human being on more than one occassion and there remain people who still support that organization unconditionally. What does that tell you about these type of people, the ones wearing NE Patriot attire? It tells you that the next Odan Lloyd could be a loved one, a friend, a family member. "Get off first!" Enough is enough! How many more lives have to be lost before Goddell lifts a finger? He should've thrown that team out of the league already and anyone with a spine knows it. And if anyone thinks this is much ado about nothing, well um….this is my story and I'm sticking to it god damn it. Protect yourself and your loved ones from these people vvv "Get off first!"
We all make jokes, but this isn't a funny matter. Now with that said Aaron is screwed. There no way he can get a fair trail.
How is he not getting a fair "trail"? Because he's running out of money and can no longer afford high priced criminal defense lawyers? Go reread what you just said. _
Kraft should give the $3 million signing bonus that he's refusing to pay Hernandez to the victims' (x3 and counting) family. He won't though. He's a fuck. Crazy how they signed a murderer to a long term contract and act like they are surprised when it comes out... And how no one is holding them to the fire for it. Fuck them
There not one future jury member that see all this and properly has opinion if he guilty or not already.
It's pretty annoying how the Pats get a free pass on this kind of stuff. We had a backup running back that we signed as a free agent get arrested while drunk as a passenger in someone's car and it was huge news about the Jets being a circus and all that crap. They have one of their star players straight up murdering people and while it obviously got a lot of attention it was never indicated in a way that showed the Pats in a negative light. Between that, Spygate, BB cheating on his wife, Kraft accusing Putin of stealing a Super Bowl ring, their star QB's wife openly making negative comments about the receivers and a host of other things you think the media would maybe say "huh...maybe these guys are these immaculate, flawless shining examples of human beings." But instead it's "oh my God the Jets are such a travesty because they haven't announced their starting QB after three days of OTAs!"
?..barstool maybe Hernandez' 3 victims are living on Dead Street. Jokes? Q: How many Patroits does it take to change a lightbulb? A: More guns. Read between the lines. My 'joke' post was also about the fradulent 'Patriot Way' that the media buys into and disengenously runs with. Just yesterday, the NFL Netwok had some fawning blonde babe interviewing 'good guy' Robert Kraft and fellow 'good guy' Willie McGinest during the Patriots' "Heads Up" event which featured the 'good guy' Patriots teaching 300 moms how to tackle correctly to prevent concussions. The interview consisted of one creampuff question after another and gave Kraft and McGinest an opportunity to kiss each other's 'good guy' ass while promoting the 'good guy' Patriots organization. THAT was a joke. As for "poor Aaron" not getting fair trial, please... +1

http://xfinity.comcast.net/articles/sports-nfl/20140702/Aaron.Hernandez/ Patriots: Team owes Aaron Hernandez nothing By DENISE LAVOIE, AP Wed Jul 2, 9:29 PM UTC The New England Patriots don't owe ''another penny'' to former tight end Aaron Hernandez, who is charged in three killings, a team lawyer told a judge Wednesday. Attorney Andrew Phelan said the team terminated its contract with Hernandez shortly after he was charged last year in the death of semi-pro football player Odin Lloyd. He said the team does not believe it owes Hernandez a $3.25 million contract signing bonus. ''The Patriots believe under the terms of that contract that they owe not another penny to Mr. Hernandez,'' Phelan said during a hearing in Suffolk Superior Court on wrongful death lawsuits filed by the families of Daniel de Abreu and Safiro Furtado, two Boston men prosecutors say were also killed by Hernandez. The families' lawyer, William Kennedy, asked for an order barring the Patriots from paying Hernandez the $3.25 million if the team is ever ordered to do so by an arbitrator. According to the lawsuit filed by Kennedy, Hernandez has filed a grievance seeking the money, plus $82,000 he says is owed to him by the team. But Judge Bonnie MacLeod said the team is already subject to a similar order in the Lloyd case and accepted a signed stipulation from the Patriots. The agreement says the Patriots will inform the court if an arbitrator orders them to pay Hernandez and will be subject to any further orders from the court on the matter, Kennedy said. Kennedy also asked to add the Patriots organization as a defendant in the lawsuit. He said his primary goal in adding the team was to be able to get information on the terms of Hernandez's contract with the Patriots in an effort to try to secure assets for the families in the event they are awarded damages by a jury. Each family is asking for $6 million in damages. MacLeod said she would take that request under advisement, but was leaning against adding the team as defendants. The judge said Kennedy has other ways of getting the information he is looking for from the Patriots. Hernandez's attorney, John Fitzpatrick, argued in court papers that the attempt to prevent the team from paying Hernandez is ''fundamentally unfair'' because Hernandez needs the money to pay for his defense in the three killings and the civil cases. Depriving Hernandez access to his earnings ''would impair his state and federal constitutional rights to counsel and to due process,'' he wrote. In court Wednesday, Fitzpatrick said he is not arguing that Hernandez needs the money or that Hernandez does not want any money to go to the bereaved families. He said it is clear that the judge in the Odin Lloyd case has already asserted authority over Hernandez's assets. Fitzpatrick expressed sympathy for the men's families and also mentioned Hernandez. ''I have a client who is sitting in a jail who has fallen about as low as one can fall,'' he said. Hernandez is accused of fatally shooting the two men in 2012 while they sat in their car at a stop light after one of them accidentally spilled a drink on Hernandez at a Boston nightclub. The 2012 shootings took place weeks before Hernandez signed a five-year, $40 million contract with the Patriots. Lloyd's body was found in an industrial area near Hernandez's home in North Attleborough. Hernandez has pleaded not guilty in the three killings. The Associated Press
