Aaron Hernandez kills himself in prison

[Coldweather]

Someone may of killed him. This not be good!

Those dudes in prison are like McGyver. This clears the way for the Pats to draft Mixon though.

I haven't been this conflicted over someone's death in a long time. The Christian in me grieves (maybe too strong a word) for someone so troubled who would end his life before possibly trying to somehow make something out of your worthless life and I grieve for his daughter that he brought into the world without a father. My human instinct thinks good....I'm glad we won't hear from you anymore....thanks for saving the people of Massachusetts a ton of money housing you for the next 50-60 years you might have been around....you're not only a cold-blooded murderer but a chicken shit...good riddance. A true tragic story or what was and what could have been.

I kind of feel the same way. I was watching Mike and Mike early when it was first announced, and I didn't flinch......it was just oh, makes sense. But as I contemplate the reality of all that has transpired, I just feel a lot of sorrow for everyone involved, including Hernandez. I just feel sad we live in a world where this happens. 27 years ago, he was a newborn baby sitting on a winning lottery ticket of talent and promise, and had a great life ahead of him. He had Tim Tebow as a roommate and Urban Meyer as a coach. Good people that should have been able to influence him. And now the story is over, and none of it can be rewinded or changed. How does anyone live with that kind of regret? Of course he was gonna kill himself. Just sad.

If he wasn't a talented athlete, would you feel empathy? Why does athletic ability change the perception? How many thousand and thousands of men are in jail, because they weren't given seven or eight chances to "turn their life around" simply because they aren't great runners or can t jump?

NBA is too..

PGA is too, it is just involving some additional varieties of drugs and more white-collar crime.

Good perspective

 

[Mobdeeper7239]

Oh wow. The abatement law. He did it so he could be dead as an innocent man. His murder conviction will now be dismissed. So his family didn't have to go through lawsuits and shit like that. Wow.

[Mobdeeper7239]

Clearly his motivation for doing it. Fucking wow.

 

[Seymour]

I really hope OJ is paying attention

 

[PatsFan1283]

OJ has parole in like a year or two I think. He gonna be on the prowl fuckin white girls again with a little luck.

 

[HacheMan]

No way I'd spend the next 50-60 years in prison.

I'd find a way out too...

 

[StevieRay]

More should do it for less jail crowding

of course it changes perspective, it's called "wasted talent" and a wasted opportunity that so few in life get

it's puts his regressions at a different level

Lol. Oj loved himself too much

 

[Mobdeeper7239]

I think if he was convicted of those double murders then he still would be living today. It had to be this year while he was in appeal. If he was found guilty of two other murders he wouldn't of been able to kill himself and fix the situation somewhat. His family would have still been fucked. So pretty crazy.

But once he found out he was not guilty for that. I think he made up his mind for sure he had to do it.

Crazy.
