I would almost guarantee that he will not play in the NFL anymore, and who knows, he may not be a free man anymore either.

I read that he was affiliated with gangs in Connecticut where he grew up. That sounds so strange to me. When I think of gangs, one of the last states that comes to mind is Connecticut!

I still think that's silly. Why would the prosecutor let him turn himself in? After he's destroyed or attempted to destroy possible evidence?

 

Here is my tale on it. Why should he get any better treatment for what he is being accused of? Screw AH. He should be treated like a common criminal period.

 

Cuff him and stuff him.

You've never been to Bridgeport I take it.

Gangs are every where, just worse in some cities, states.

Remember though, he has only been accused, not convicted. If he's found guilty, then yes, who cares what happens to him. Give him his day in court, and punish him however you see fit. But until then, our system requires he be treated fairly. Innocent until proven guilty (although in this case, guilty is pretty likely).

It's difficult to convict people in this country as well.

 

I wondered the same. Special episode of Gangland in September?

 

:lol:

 

Hadn't really took the time to read through this thread until tonight, but my lord PP you've killed it. :lol: :lol:

Seems like a wise decision to not allow bail, if only to protect potential witnesses. Whomever is aware of any connection to the incident in

2012, then their lives could potentially be in danger too.

Based on what he is accused of and the seemingly damning evidence, I have no issue with bail being denied. My only point was the opinion to lock him up and throw away the key before he gets his day in court.

I remembered Gangland had an episode about Hartford

Los Solidos is the gang name

Hernandez being looked at in 2007 Gainesville shooting:

 

Mass. police investigate Aaron Hernandez for possible role in 2007 Gainesville shooting, according to sources - ESPN

 

Here is an excerpt that doesn't sound too promising for Hernandez:

 

Cason, then 20, told police that shooter was a "Hawaiian" or "Hispanic" male who had a large muscular build, stood about 6-foot-3 or 6-foot-4, weighed about 230 or 240 pounds and had a lot of tattoos. Cason said there was also a black male with the shooter, and Cason identified the black male as Reggie Nelson, a former Florida Gator who was a rookie with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Nelson, in an interview with the Gainesville police, said he had been at the nightclub earlier but denied he was even on the same street as the shooting.

 

"As they were waiting for the light to change, the Hawaiian football player and Reggie Nelson walked up to their car on the right side," according to the police report, which cited what Cason told detectives. "Then without saying a work [sic], the Hawaiian pointed a small handgun in the front right window and fired five quick shots. Cason saw Smith slump over with blood coming out of the back of the head, at which time the Hawaiian and Nelson took off running towards McDonald's."

 

The police report says that Nelson and Hernandez had been in The Venue nightclub along with two other Gators players, Mike and Maurkice Pouncey, twin brothers who now both play in the NFL. After the shooting, investigators interviewed Cason at Shands Hospital. Cason is described as distraught and emotional, and an officer indicated Cason said several times "it should have been him that had been shot and not Cory [sic]." Cason told investigators that a week earlier his brother had gotten into an altercation with several Florida football players.

This makes it 4 shootings now that he is being connected to? Jeez...

3 deaths and 3 people injured in those 4 shootings. This one happening when he was a freshman at UF. Makes you wonder what else he was involved in during his time at UF. Netwon got dismissed from the team because of the laptop thing didn't he? So either AH did one heck of a job keeping things off the radar or UF thought he could really help them.

I heard on Sportscenter this morning that Hernandez was involved in a bar fight in Gainesville and that Tim Tebow player peacemanker by getting Hernandez out of the bar and paying his tab as well.

 

They should interview Tebow. What does he know?
