Stunning New Information About Aaron Hernandez And His Terrible Downfall
Aaron Hernandez seemed to have it all. He starred as a tight end at Florida when they were perennial national title contenders. He was drafted by the New England Patriots, and quickly became a star target for Tom Brady. Life on the field at least looked great. He even got a multimillion dollar extension early in his Patriots tenure.
Sadly his personal life was about as awful as possible. He was sent to jail for murdering his friend Odin Lloyd, who was an aspiring football player. While serving his life sentence for that murder, he was put on trial for two other possible murders. He was found hanged in his cell during the subsequent trial.
Recently more information has been unearthed regarding possible reasons that he went down such a dark and troubling road.
All of this information is from anonymous sources, but it appears that he may have secretly been gay with a teammate, that he was molested as a young boy, and that he may have had substance abuse issues.
Here is an ESPN article with more information about these new findings:
