BREAKING NEWS: Former Patriots TE Aaron Hernandez found not guilty for double homicide in 2012

We all know the story of how Aaron Hernandez, a very talented receiving tight end, threw his life away. In the 2013, Hernandez was suspected, arrested, and convicted for first degree murder and is serving the rest of his life in a prison about a couple miles from Gillette Stadium. After the conviction for the murder of Odin Lloyd, prosecutors linked Hernandez to a double murder in 2012, while Hernandez was still employed by the Patriots. The Patriots cut Hernandez the day he was arrested and right before we found out what the charges were.

Hernandez was charged for the murder of Daniel de Abreu and Safiro Furtado near a Boston night club on July 16, 2012.
