While there's no doubt the guy was a bad dude, Joe is right that suicide is a difficult topic for some people and families. We should never be happy when someone ruins their life like this guy did.
I think that maybe he thought he'd be vindicated in that case. When he was, and had no chance of parole, he ended his life
I can understand why the other thread was deleted. It is a tragic situation, but the biggest tragedy was the person/people he murdered.
But why not wait to see if you can get an appeal through and have another trial on Lloyd?
I have no idea but maybe he really wasn't guilty of this second one and he wanted to have his day in court. He knew he was guilty in the Lloyd one and figured the chances of ever walking free were 0%
So he squandered his wife/daughters nest egg to prove he didn't commit these murders.
I have no idea. Somebody asked why he would wait till after the trail I thought about it and through my theory sounded plausible I have no insight, no knowledge and quite honestly no real care but thought it was decent speculation As for why he would squander his nest-egg, he never seemed like a person who cared about much other than himself
Maybe the opposite. Civil trail to go after his assets by the victims families of the second trail will be much more difficult now.
I thought I read that his attorney for the second trial was the one who defended the Casey Anthony people. That guy can't be cheap
I don't feel good about anybody killing themselves, but this is not a sad ending to a tragic story. Hernandez seems like a genuinely bad guy who made some evil decisions. He richly deserved to spend the rest of his life in prison, and if this is how he chose to play things instead, that's his call and not something that I'm going to feel bad about.
Sad? Sorry but this is anything but. Is it sad because he was an NFL player? What if he was just a Joe Shmoe on the street that was a convicted murderer, is it still a sad story or is it suddenly ok. This is one of the endings to this story that I'm actually pleased with.
Agreed. The guy was a murderer. The only reason he committed suicide was because he was locked up for life. This is totally different than someone who is free to do what they want but has some mental issue and ends their life.
Yeah she couldn't be more obviously guilty of murdering her kid. Baez must be one of the most expensive lawyers around.
And when are they going to stop making it possible to tie linens to a barred window? They're just asking for prisoners to commit suicide with that. How about just a pane of bullet-proof glass?
That's kind of the interesting part.
