The body of 27 year old former semi-pro football player Odin Lloyd was found on June 17th in an industrial park a mile from Hernandez's house. Police say he had been shot multiple times in the groin, back and chest. Hernandez has since been remanded into custody without bail. Continue...
The DA said keys were found in Lloyd's pocket to a car that had been rented by Hernandez.
Mr Lloyd's relatives said the two men were friends and both had been out together on the night Mr Lloyd died. In court on Wednesday, prosecutors said the killing arose from a dispute at a Boston nightclub on June 14.
They said Mr Lloyd was aware Hernandez was upset with him after being picked up by the NFL star in the early hours of June 17.
Prosecutors said Mr Lloyd sent a text to his sister saying: "Did you see who I am with."
When his sister asked who, Mr Lloyd responded: "NFL."
Within minutes of the text, people working overnight at the industrial park reported hearing gunshots, authorities said.
As for the motive, prosecutors believe Odin had said something recently to Hernandez that destroyed his trust. Lloyd is believed to have been dating the sister of Aaron's fiancee at the time of his murder.
In addition to murder, Hernandez has been charged with 1 count of carrying a gun without a license, 2 counts of possession of a large firearm, and 2 counts of firearm possession. He has pled not guilty.
Last summer, the Patriots gave Hernandez a five-year contract worth $40m.

ReplyDeleteAs safe as the US seems. Gun Control is still a falacy.
Careful of who you call friend
ReplyDeleteI don't really get the story, were the two of them bisexual? Or they were just hanging out? Nowadays, people just shoot other people because the hooted their car horn too much, so it's no biggie in America, they kuku have almost no gun control laws (yes there are laws, but just like everything else, pple will find a way to get round them when a few dollars exchange hands under the table). Sad really. Lives wasted for nothing
ReplyDeleteI dont get the story either and prosecutors havent said much.
DeleteWhy will someone kill his own team mate????
ReplyDeleteFrom grace 2 grass.
ReplyDeleteFrom riches 2 rags.

ReplyDeleteAll these allegation about seeing lloyd texting herndenez bla bla does not hold water.the question is,does evidence shows he kill him?
ReplyDeleteFriendship turned sour. Too sad. Too Bad.Methinks ANGER MANAGEMENT should be included in the school curriculum from Basic to the higher institution.
ReplyDelete"Pled" is correct. Widely used in American English. I guess we are used to "pleaded"
ReplyDeleteThat's his life over, career over, and everything over just because of a gun. Sad.
We use British English, dummy.
