When is sentencing scheduled?

It's life without parole. Nothing else.

Their lives are literally made, as are their children's. What compels them to do things that will leave them penniless is beyond me. I still can't get over that Chicago Bear that wanted to be a fucking druglord. You're getting paid well to play football, so fucking play football.

EDIT: Thanks for the updates, Odinson.

I believe he was making more being a drug kingpin than in the nfl ha

Aaron seems to be in disbelief.

 

[Griffe316]

Doesn't matter. This one won't let him leave jail. He can be not guilty for the second and still be in jail.

I realize it doesn't matter for him anymore, it's more for closure for the other victims family or friends

 

[n64coder]

He definitely seemed guilty based on the evidence. RIP Odin, too bad Aaron decided to be a gangster instead of just being an athlete. Then there were those other murders he was linked to...

Sad that Odin lost his life. Sad that Aaron threw his life away for this. Seems that the jury was careful in their deliberations and came to the right conclusion based on the evidence that I heard in the case.

 

[Odinson]

Thanks for updating this thread. Don't think I could've kept up with this any better than in this thread.

Your welcome! Thanks to all the posters who subscribed and followed along.

I'm happy for Odin's family, sad for Aaron's. The choices we make in life come with consequences.

 

[The_Afroman]

As a father, i weep for his mother (and the parents of the deceased). All you want to do is protect your children. The pain a parent must feel to see your child in a fate like this.

Oh Aaron. You had the world.. but you had to play thug.

 

[LyleLanley]

It seems crazy that he could hear that he was guilty of murder in the first degree and hardly react at all.

Edit:

Thanks for all the updates Odinson.

 

[dave is ok]

In hindsight, his biggest mistake was killing all of those people

He really should've considered killing less people, or maybe not killing at all.

$40M down the drain to be a gangster.

I think life without parole is infinitely worse than all the lost money.

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

and that's why you just don't go around killing your bluntmaster.

EDIT: Thanks for the updates, Odinson.

Even when you've made it, sometimes all you really care about is the respect of those with whom you grew up. There are many ways of showing that you're still down/haven't changed just because of money; AH murdering Odin and possibly others is just one way to express it.

 

[Infernostew]

Big ups to Odinson for this thread. Great job!

Edit: also maybe we can get an updated title for the verdict?

See ya dude. Keep up that tough attitude.
Man he seemed like such a sweetheart. His poor wife. /s
And yes thanks Odinson! I didn't post at all but read all your updates.

 

[ActStriker]

Sentencing is at 10:50.

Thanks for all the updates Odinson.

This is what I thought too. He looked like it was just another day. Yet, I guess if you know you did something, and had so long to prepare for it. It might not phase you as much, because you expect it.

 

[AkuMifune]

I almost. Almost feel sorry for him. He was a thug who was entitled his whole life and never shown any consequences. Maybe if his dad had been around his life would be different.

But man. Fuck this guy. /byebitch

 

[CapitalismSucks DonkeyBalls]

Kudos to the jury for taking the time to come to a smart and rational decision. Not only is this life without parole, but he has another double murder case waiting in the wing. Regardless of appeals here or later in life, this man will end his life behind bars. What a complete waste of talent.

Thank you Odinson for all of the updates.

Sentencing is at 10:50.

wow this soon?

 

[HBP]

Anyone have a link to the clip of them reading the verdict?

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

wow this soon?

it's a formality from my understanding. He's getting life w/o parole.

 

[atr0cious]

So when is Tebow's trial for accessory on the charges from Florida?

 

[jmizzal]

Welp he done


It thought he was gonna get off lol

 

[bachikarn]

This is kind of surreal to me because I would see him around campus. Weird that I've walked next to a future murderer.

Wow. Yea that is pretty creepy.

Tom Brady must be legit shook to know he was so close to a sociopath.

Given all the shit he got away with at Florida, you might have walked next to a current murderer.

This is a good post.

Bill Belichick has nothing to do with this thread

 

[Mesoian]

Never thought he'd get put away for Llyod. Always thought he'd get put away for the 3 Somali guys.

Welp, good riddance.

I legit laughed for like 3 minutes.

I know Urban was really lax on punishing players smoking weed. What else did he get away?

[graffix13]

JUSTICE!

Again, Odinson...thank you for all of your hard work in this thread.

 

[Griffe316]

There are still two other people that will be tried for this murder. Wonder if they will now change to a guilty plea for a lesser sentence.

Well they might still be charged as accessories... which was best case scenario for Aaron this whole time.

 

[Fitzy]

Followed this thread closely during the trial, thanks Odinson for all the work you put into this!

 

[andycapps]

Cam Newton, Chris Rainey, Carlos Dunlap, Freddie Hammond Jr, Riley Cooper, Janoris Jenkins, Solomon Patton, etc.

 

[MickeyPhree]

Thanks for this thread odinson. Hell of a job covering all of it.

 

[LQX]

Wow, I was not sure he would be found guilty. What an idiot. Threw away everything. I think Aaron Hernandez shows that some people are just born to be fucking killers. How do you have so much and randomly kill 3 people and shoot out anothers eye? Crazy.

 

[super-heated plasma]

Heh. Try dating one, like I did.

 

[rinse82]

Wow.

Just an unrelated side story; me and my buddies were boarding a plane to Vegas back in 2011 and noticed Hernandez and his girl were in line for the same flight.

As we're boarding the plane we notice Hernandez trying to buy the window seat from a passenger for his girl; passenger declined and as my friend is walking by he says to Aaron "guess your NFL money isn't good enough!" in a joking fashion.

Hernandez then gave my friend the coldest stare you could imagine, looked like he wanted to kill him. We joked about it at the time but in hindsight kind of freaky lol

 

[Odinson]

The family of Odin Lloyd are giving their statements.

Dodged a bullet!!!!

 

[RadioHammer500]

some people on twitter are complaining about the charge..saying how could they give him first degree with no murder weapon or witnesses?

i dont know much about law, can someone help me out

Circumstantial evidence is more than enough in many cases.

They should stop watching procedural shows.
