According to ESPN
Former New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez is holding what authorities say appears to be a gun in several surveillance photos that were released Thursday and had been recorded shortly after his friend was shot to death.
The photos taken from Hernandez’s home surveillance system are contained in more than 100 pages of court records released by Attleboro District Court.
Aaron Hernandez is holding what authorities say appears to be a gun in several surveillance photos that were released Thursday.
Hernandez has pleaded not guilty to murder in the death of Odin Lloyd, a 27-year-old Boston semi-professional football player whose body was found June 17 in an industrial park about a mile from Hernandez’s home. Lloyd was shot five times.
The pictures show Hernandez in his basement holding a gun shortly after Lloyd was killed, an affidavit released Thursday says. The surveillance was cut off within minutes.
Other photos show what authorities say is Hernandez in his living room, a few hours before Lloyd’s killing, also holding what they believe is a gun.
Police say Lloyd was killed with a .45 caliber gun, but it has not been recovered. Hernandez will continue to be held without bail.
Prosecutors say Hernandez orchestrated Lloyd’s killing because he was upset at him for talking to people Hernandez had problems with at a nightclub a few days earlier.
They say Hernandez and two associates, Ernest Wallace and Carlos Ortiz, drove with Lloyd to the North Attleborough industrial park. Authorities have not said who fired the shots, but documents filed in Florida portray the former Patriot as the triggerman. According to the records, Ortiz told police that Wallace said Hernandez fired the shots.
The Patriots released Hernandez within hours of his arrest. SMH what a sad story. Someone who had it all one day, lost it all the next. Let this be a message to all you young boys out there to be careful with the company you keep.
