Wow, what a way to literally throw your dream life away. Young, rich, good-looking...but a murderer.

Just...wow.

Trial ends with Hernandez declared guilty on all counts. First degree murder. Sentencing in a few minutes.

And they haven't even started the double homicide he's linked to in Boston.

Massachusetts doesn't have an active death penalty any more does it?

Is there still an ongoing investigation of the Gainesville, FL murders? Florida has the death penalty.

Kinda like Ted Bundy years ago. God looking, young and trained to be a lawyer.

Instead he raped, killed and had sex with dead corpses. D:

Sentence is life without parole. Sentences for other count concurrent.

He has been classified as a Person of Interest


While FLA has the death penalty; Mass does not and would not allow FLA to get their hands on him until he finishes his sentences in State Prison (Sousa or Cedar Junction; I think due them being the Max Security facilities)

And there still is the double in Boston that he is under investigation for.

He's more than 'under investigation for' those. He was indicted by the grand jury, charged with their murder and was scheduled to start trial for their deaths in May, but I read that may be delayed a few months.

Death penalty would be doing this scum a favor.

let him live with himself....I just wish they made prisoners work 12 hour days and useful......better yet, torture these bastards (only if it's beyond doubt/100%......cause we know our prisons have innocent people in them as well)

Crime would drop in a heart beat if they did....

They might prosecute those cases just for the family's of those victims because he already has the highest penalty available in the state of Mass. He is also facing a bunch of civil lawsuits as well but one would think they will not be able to recover much $$ from him at this point as he has had zero income since being released by the Patriots and the type of lawyers he hired to defend him don't come cheap. Ironically he will serve his sentence at the MCI-Cedar Junction facility in Walpole, Mass., which is fewer than four miles from the ex-Patriots tight end's former workplace, Gillette Stadium. I have zero sympathy for this idiot, he had it all, a great-performing athlete making many million's of $$ in one of the best franchises in the league, playing alongside Gronk, Brady and coached by a legend. Now he will be a legendarily "tight end" but in a different role. D:

He might as well enjoy that trial and try to string it out for as long as possible. His sentence won't get any longer if convicted and that's going to be his only chance to get outside the walls for a long, long time.

Torture?, really?..that would be endorsing behavior as bad or worse than what most people are charged for. A large % of the huge prison population is of drug offenses, now these people were committing crimes at the time and they knew it but I don't see where torturing someone who was found guilty in a drug case would represent us as anything else but fucking animals.

No, I would reserve those for murderers and molesters only.

Did he have any money from his time in the NFL in the bank?

Does he have to pay any of that back?

I know I don't keep up with current events, but am I the only one who thought this was already over and done with?

The reddit thread said that you can actually hear the crowd cheering from Gillette stadium from Aaron's prison in Walpole!
