Hernandez convicted of first-degree murder; found deceased in his cell. (1 Viewer)

[werdnoynek]

If my sense of direction is correct, he's heading north. Canada it is.

(disclaimer - north may or may not be that direction.)

 

[Maurile Tremblay]

Not sure if these questions belong in this thread or a brand new one - but (assuming the worst here and Hernandez is done with the Pats/found guilty/whatever) - what's the fallout?

Specially, can the Pats simply cut a guy who's in jail without salary cap issues? They just signed him to a bid deal last year, if cut would all of that signing bonus be against the cap this year?! Also, and again assuming Gronk is back healthy (pun intended), how will Hernandez' absence affect him?

It's possible that being unable to play because he's in jail is a breach of his contract. If the Patriots can recover the signing bonus, it won't count against the cap.

Arrest warrant issued at 9:30.

Source?Because it turns out the police chopper over his house was probably a news chopper

Its been reported on two different station news reports on Boston radio

Link?It all seems to stem from this Tweet, which is a far cry from the statement early in this thread that an arrest warrant was issued at 9 a.m.

Hearing via law enforcement source that Aaron Hernandez will be arrested in connection with the North Attleborough murder

Jesus H Christ what link???? It was reported on both Boston radio stations. Go find Woodward & Bernstein. All I know is what was reported. ####### link

Would a murderer fill up his tank before going to jail? He must be innocent.

6 months off sentence if you show back up at police station with full tank.

 

[bicycle_seat_sniffer]

man he's been on an off-season bender huh?

 

[rockaction]

Stating the obvious: Getting a search warrant procured for your home is terrible news. This will not end well for him. A bullet in the back of the head, three guys out of four return in the same car. Um...this is truly bad.

 

[greggorymac]

ullsupachair:

Do you think he knows when he's going to get arrested? Wonder whats going through his mind right now?

I hope they don't find that dead hooker.

 

[Plorfu]

So, I'm pretty sure this is the only time "bump Finley" actually makes sense.

I think his name was Lloyd.

 

[PatsFanCT]

I don't think he signaled there. That should tac on some time to his sentence.

Boston Globe political reporter:

NO ARREST IMMINENT in murder investigation involving Aaron Hernandez. All other reports (currently) "absolutely untrue," per state police

Wesley Lowery ‏@WesleyLowery 15s
Not saying an arrest won't happen, or that one won't happen today. But reporting Hernandez "will be arrested" is speculative.

Speculative. Just how the Internet likes it.

It was reported on 98.5 the hub in Boston. Pete Thamel is reporting an arrest is likely. Keep in mind Thamel has a history on writing news stories about imaginary people.

Welcome to the Speculation Pool. Please do not pee in the pool. Or do-do.

 

[ShaHBucks]

This reminds me of the Dexter series. I never got to watch the end.

 

[DaveL]

at what point is this no longer news and this becomes simply stalking a football player driving his car around while he does errands

 

[KCitons]

NEVER

 

[We Tigers]

Anyone know where he is? Is he near his home?

He's killing again

 

[Sinn Fein]

Shark move would have been drive to Logan, and switch cars where the helicopter could not fly.

Well, if Gresh and Zo had it then it must be true, no better investigative reporters than those two

 

[Slapdash]

Maybe Hernandez is just Dexter.

i remember that in Heat

 

[tombonneau]

Maybe Hernandez is just Dexter.

"Dexter" would have been only one episode long if he killed people a mile from his home and left his car at the scene.

 

[KCitons]

I'm bored.

so is AH

 

[PatsFanCT]

Who's the chick?

CT plates. The plot thickens.

Anyone get a screen grab of that ###?

 

[PatsFanCT]

Nice move there. Losing them in traffic, just like on the field.

 

[werdnoynek]

Better call Saul.

 

[kOOk]

They reported that he got into his car initially while it was in the garage. That's nuts.

 

[rockaction]

I'm bored.

Yup

 

[Jules Winnfield]

So, I'm pretty sure this is the only time "bump Finley" actually makes sense.

Then that would be bump OFF Lloyd

I imagine subscribers would be pretty pissed if Joe didn't send out any info about what is going on with this. There's a lot of them that don't have time to come read the board all the time.

How's that new time machine workin' out for ya?

 

[gregjcross]

This could be the most bizarre crime ever becauase there is absolutely ZERO to gain from killing this guy and so much to lose.

To me that is the most odd piece of a very odd puzzle: what is the motive?

Apologies if this has already been posted, but I just saw it on Twitter:

http://abcnews.go.com/US/aaron-hernandez-destroyed-home-security-system-phone-sources/story?id=19445131#.UcND9bvLibV

According to the link he destroyed his home security video as well as his phone

ETA: Also, a team of cleaners came to his mansion on Monday and scrubbed it down.

It could be anything. People kill each other all the time during heated moments when a gun is around. Being young, and just coming from a nightclub, there are so many possible reasons.

There is countless scenarios one could speculate about it and make up motives. People do dumb things for dumb reasons. The story will play itself out sooner than later and it will make a lot more sense then it does today.

That's the logical way to look at it. But unfortunately, people who have issues with drugs, gangs, etc don't think this way. Pride, reputation, etc hold a lot more water for some people than the consequences of "keeping it real" (Chappelle reference)

Reporting that Hernandez handed his phone to police, the phone was in pieces. I guess this would be the "uncooperative part"

Police also want to know why a team of house cleaners were hired on Monday to scrub Hernandez's mansion, sources told ABC News.
