Dennis “DJ” Hernandez appeared to be planning shootings at the University of Connecticut and Brown University, arrest documents showed.

An ex-girlfriend told Bristol police that he actually drove to the campuses of UConn and Brown to “map the schools out.” She surmised that he did that because he was planning to do a “school shooting.” She said he actually went into a number of classrooms and buildings on the Storrs campus…

I hope they have more evidence than the word of an ex gf. He could have been on a tour of campus. Just saying...

He sounds like a disaster area- perhaps it runs in the family- he is a freaking mess and sounds dangerous to me

Going off of a multi-episode podcast done on Aaron, during which his brother contributed significantly, he sounded (at that time) to be pretty well grounded. He shared that they both loved their Dad and tried to earn his approval. He passed when the boys were still fairly young. IMSMC, middle school and early high school. He was described as highly authoritarian and strict. (Paraphrasing) I hope whatever is going on with him, that he's able to get beyond it. I wish him well. He's been through a lot. AJMOO

You can read the arrest warrant at the site in the first post. He threatened to kill the victim (not the ex) in open court in Florida. The school shooting plots are just the icing on the cake of being a danger to himself and others.

He seems to find all of this funny in the picture.Very disturbed individual IMO.

It's sad to watch him decline so drastically. There was a time when he was a college football coach, and then had his own roofing business. When he was arrested for the ESPN incident the news articles mentioned he had bipolar disorder. There definitely seems to be something going on with his mental health, I hope he is able to get help.
