At some point you just know that there will be an Aaron Hernandez movie. Rolling Stone put together an in-depth investigation on Hernandez and has uncovered “five shocking facts” about the former New England patriots tight end that include drug use, cover ups and almost being cut from the Pats:
• Both his parents, Dennis and Terri, had criminal records, as did much of his extended family.
The two “violent incidents” have been reported before, a 2007 shooting in Gainesville, and a bar fight in which the tight end assaulted a bouncer.
Hernandez will be back in court on September 6th to be arraigned for the murder of Odin Lloyd. The NFLPA has also filed a grievance against the New England Patriots on Hernandez behalf to pay his off season work out bonus in the amount of $82,000.
