Aaron Hernandez Arrest: Prosecution Details What Allegedly Happened In Shooting Death Of Odin Llyod As Ex-Patriots TE Facing First Degree Murder Charges
On Wednesday morning, Aaron Hernandez had his lavish lifestyle taken from him after being arrested at his North Attleboro, Mass., home, which later resulted in his release from the New England Patriots. Hernandez stands accused of the shooting death of 27-year-old Odin Lloyd.
During his arraignment at the Attleboro District Courthouse, first assistant William McCauley presented the case for why Hernandez shouldn't receive bail, describing in detail the chain of events that lead to his arrest:
- On Monday, June 17, Hernandez and two other men picked up Lloyd in Dorchester, Mass., around 2:30 a.m. ET in a rented Nissan Altima.
- According to McCauley, Hernandez was allegedly upset with Lloyd about speaking to someone at Club Rumor in Boston that weekend and claimed he couldn't trust him.
- The four men drove around Boston, then headed south down Routes 128 and 95 before ending up on Route 152 in the Attleboro area. During this time, Lloyd exchanged texts with his sister. The last text, according to McCauley, was sent at 3:23 a.m.
- Surveillance video showed the Altima entering a gravel road that leads to a field in an industrial park near Hernandez's home at 3:23 a.m., according to McCauley.
- McCauley said employees in the park working at the time reported hearing gunshots. Surveillance images showed the Nissan leaving the scene at 3:27 a.m.
- Hernandez and the two others in the car then returned to Hernandez's home less than two minutes away and shut off the surveillance video system.
- Lloyd's body was discovered around 5:30 p.m. by a jogger.
- McCauley said Hernandez eventually changed cars, disposed of the gun and then destroyed his home surveillance system.
Michael Fee, one of Hernandez's defense attorneys, spoke briefly on the situation with the media following Monday's arraignment:
"Out of respect to that process, the defense team can not comment today on this case. We will be pursuing it in court. But we look forward to our day in court."
When asked how Hernandez was doing, Fee responded: "Aaron's fine."
