linerHe killed himself the night he killed Odin Lloyd He just didn't know it yet. There was no way he could go from living the life of a wealthy athlete to a life sentence. He took the only way out available to him. And yes he was bad guy and a coward.
Ironically In the eyes of the state of Massachusetts, former New England Patriots star Aaron Hernandez died an innocent man, thanks to an archaic legal principle called “abatement ab initio,” said Martin W. Healy, chief legal counsel to the Massachusetts Bar Association. Though Hernandez was convicted in 2014 of murdering Odin Lloyd of Boston, Hernandez’s appeal was not complete. Abatement ab initio means “from the beginning,” Healy said, and it means that upon a person’s death, if they have not exhausted their legal appeals, their case reverts to its status at the beginning — it’s as if the trial and conviction never happened. “Unfortunately, in the Odin Lloyd matter, for the family, there won’t be any real closure,” said Healy. “Aaron Hernandez will go to his death an innocent man.” The principle comes from English common law, Healy said, and is observed by several of the older states in the nation. It rarely comes up in practice, he said, and people forget it exists.

BS.
He had every opportunity in the world, including being on a team with the best coach in the NFL, a great organization and even Tim Tebow.
Pissed it all away by murdering two people that spilled drinks on him in a nightclub.
"Innocent" my ass ...

saigonsmugglerBoston media are reporting that because he died, MA law allow that he died an innocent man, thus civil lawsuits against his estate cannot proceed.

Based on the correctional facilities that I've helped design over the past 25 years or so, I find it a bit hard to believe that they would have left anything in his cell that could have been used as an effective barricade. Furniture in newer facilities is fixed to the floor or wall to prevent it from being used as a weapon or for barricade purposes. Therefore, it must either an old facility or the guards just didn't want to risk damaging the clothes and personal items he put in front of the door when they realized what he was doing.

heathtxMy gosh, the news today was horrific!
There was a wreck during commute time on I-30 in Dallas and Aaron Hernandez killed himself.
My first thought was "how long was the traffic jam?"
