Would there be any money left that would go to Avielle? Maybe the guilt got to him, having been acquitted.

More thoughts:
He was just brought back from the jail where trial was held to Souza, hell on earth. He was in a unit where only one inmate could be out of their cell at a time. Maybe he realized what the rest of his life would be like. Also Belichick last week said Hernandez was a heartbreaking tragedy. And the Pats are visiting the WH today, he'd realized what he could have had.

Aaron Hernandez Hanged Himself in Prison, Officials Say
By VICTOR MATHER
APRIL 19, 2017
Aaron Hernandez, the former star tight end with the New England Patriots who was convicted of first-degree murder in 2015, hanged himself in prison on Wednesday, the authorities said.

He was discovered in his cell by corrections officers at the Souza Baranowski Correctional Center in Shirley, Mass., around 3 a.m., the Massachusetts Department of Correction said in a statement.

Lifesaving techniques were attempted, and he was transported to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 4:07 a.m., the department said.

“Mr. Hernandez hanged himself using a bedsheet that he attached to his cell window,” the statement said. “Mr. Hernandez also attempted to block his door from the inside by jamming the door with various items.”

Depends on what kind of contracts there were. Or any life insurance policies. Unsure but according to MA legal stuff, since he had an Appeal started, his conviction of that is dismissed. So he only has the conviction of the gun charge from last week.

Will we see what the settlement between AB and AH was? :thinking: what is AB thinking. I sure had to read it twice first I thought it meant AB was dead.

AH was only slated to serve a little more time based on his gun conviction as he was found not guilty of the two murders. Most likely, he would have been out after a year or two for the gun crime.

What about the life without parole he got for Odin Lloyd? Lol

Extremely surprised!!!

If I remb correctly there is going to be a press conference at 2:30 Eastern.

Sidenote: Curious what the autopsy will show re his brain. So many athletes have brain trauma. Fact he died in prison is automatic autopsy. Surely not performed by the witness in his trial that would be odd. JMHO

Grrr Typical MEDIA



Aaron Hernandez was found dead in his Massachusetts prison cell Wednesday morning of an apparent suicide. Tom Brady announced later Wednesday morning he won’t join the New England Patriots at the White House due to personal family matters. These are two completely separate events. But People Magazine apparently didn’t think so, judging by the tweet it sent out Wednesday about both news items. Tom Brady pulls out of the New England #Patriots White House visit after Aaron Hernandez's suicide https://t.co/M19cpicUrM pic.twitter.com/9Ix91Qp1xi — People Magazine (@people) April 19, 2017 Never mind that Brady is not visiting the White House in order to spend time with his mother, who is recovering from cancer treatments, and that Hernandez’s death would no bearing whatsoever on what Brady does or doesn’t do. People still decided to insinuate that Brady skipped out on the White House in part because of the Hernandez news, both in this tweet and the headline of its accompanying story: “Tom Brady Pulls Out of New England Patriots White House Visit After Aaron Hernandez Suicide.” In defense of the author, the actual story doesn’t make the same insinuation, instead referencing Brady’s statement as his reason for declining to visit President Donald Trump. But to suggest Wednesday’s two surprising headlines somehow are related is a pretty misguided leap of faith

I maybe misspoke as I did not follow that trial, but going by what the analyst said doesn't matter. And if I understood correct it was an automatic appeal due to LWOP. JMHO

Legal Analyst: Hernandez suicide likely to affect Lloyd murder conviction
Updated: Apr 19, 2017 - 11:14 AM
“I know that’s going to be hard for a lot of people to swallow but if you die during an appeal in Massachusetts, the appeal of a criminal case, the conviction is vacated,” Legal analyst Peter Elikann said on FOX25 News.
Hernandez was in the process of appealing his murder conviction, which came with a life sentence with no possibility of parole.

“Clearly it’s a very, very narrow legal technicality,” Elikann said. “It’s not like you’ve been vindicated or people now realize you weren’t guilty or anything.”

He said everyone has the right to appeal and now Hernandez doesn’t have a way to exercise that right to appeal.
“Who knows if your conviction would have ultimately been vacated from the appeal,” he said. “So the idea is that since he doesn’t have the opportunity to appeal we’re not going to hold the conviction on you. And that’s how they look at it in Massachusetts law.” http://www.fox25boston.com/news/leg...y-to-affect-lloyd-murder-conviction/514052235
