New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft provided key testimony in the Aaron Hernandez murder trial, according to at least one juror who was responsible for determining the former NFL tight end’s fate.
Kraft took the stand last month after being called by the prosecution. The main takeaway from his testimony was that Hernandez lied about where he was the night Odin Lloyd was killed.
Kraft and another Patriots employee testified that Hernandez told them he was hoping the time of Lloyd’s murder came out because he was in a nightclub when it happened. Throughout the course of the trial, prosecutors proved that Hernandez was not in a club that night.
