Do the Patriots have some responsibility here for bringing a killer into the community in the first place? Bringing him into the community? He's from Bristol. Honestly, he may still be alive if he was drafted by a west coast team or smaller market team. I totally get why some players want nothing to do with playing for their hometown team, its to get away from their past mistakes and people that helped them do them. Life without parole still feels like a lot to me, I'm not suprised he did this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Up until about 4am today, there was still maybe a path to redemption for Hernandez. He could've reformed himself in prison and used his notoriety to warn young folks about the dangers of thug culture and whatnot. The FB killer is just another pychopathic moron.

Yup...she has/had two AWFUL parents. Broke my heart to see her being used as a pawn in the court room last week before the verdict was announced.

Springfield Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Could have been a super bowl champ with multiple rings. All he had to do was not be psycho murderer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Why am I Mr. Pink? Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 The PCP made him chronically paranoid imo. I was surprised to hear he was a PCP addict. Its not a popular drug anymore, its heavy not something you can smoke every day all day ... just odd. Its not a fun party drug. No one does it anymore except maybe a grimy street walking heroin addict who cant find heroin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky21 Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Rolling Stone piece from 2013 on Hernandez http://www.rollingstone.com/feature/the-gangster-in-the-huddle Should have been titled Cry For Help. It's OK if you guys think the Pats are completely blameless in this. I'm not so sure. 2 hours ago, Renegade7 said: Bringing him into the community? He's from Bristol.

Not sure this guy was a good candidate for the largest signing bonus ever given to a tight end in the history of the National Football League.

Malapropismic Depository Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Looking at it purely from an analytical view (as opposed to the moral or emotional angle) ; the timing of his choice seems odd, and I wonder if it means anything. He was sentenced to life 2 years ago. But yet, he hangs himself right after the double-acquittal in the 2nd case. I know it doesn't matter much in the big picture, but I'm just curious why he chose now to do it, or if there was any reasoning for the timing at all.

zoony Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Apparently now because of a law in Mass, his convictoon for murder has been reversed because he was actively appealing it and he died Can only imagine how the vcitims family feels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRobi21 Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Reading that people that knew him saying hed never take his own life. Might be a D'Angelo Barksdale situation. Either way, good riddance.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busch1724 Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Wouldn't it be something if one of the correctional officers staged a suicide? That's be a hell of a story. From what I gather from Aaron's lawyer today is, he'll try to acquit Aaron of his own death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jose Baez is a gigantic piece of self-serving dog ****. I really hate that slimy ****. He was quoted today saying his firm would conduct its own thorough investigation, which is clearly nothing more than a money/attention grab. Scumbag man. As to the story itself, I suppose there is some sort of justice after all. I feel bad for his daughter and the family of his victims. I don't feel bad for Hernandez. He made his own decisions, and willfully threw away a life of riches and fame for one that involved murdering an innocent man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Busch1724 Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Well not only did he throw away a life of riches and fame...he threw away an opportunity to make a positive impact on the people who needed it the most. He chose to be the smaller person. Sorry for his daughter, but not much other sympathy to go around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Why am I Mr. Pink? Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 I wouldnt assume Hernandez' estate is going to be paying any future unearned attorney fees. I would guess pro bono from here on out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
