More trouble is brewing for NFL baller Aaron Hernandez.
Law enforcement officials are now investigating Aaron Hernandez in connection to two other murders. The former New England Patriots player is currently facing charges in connection with a murder last week in North Attleborough. Officials now have reason to believe Hernandez was also involved in a double murder in Boston.
According to Boston.com, two law enforcement officials believe Odin Lloyd, the man Hernandez is being charged with killing, had information about the footballer’s involvement in the murder of Daniel Abreu and Safiro Furtado.
“The motive might have been that the victim knew Hernandez might have been involved,” one official said.
These new allegations have raised much speculation that Aaron may have hit the field with his team the New England Patriots just hours after committing the double murder.
Investigators believe that a fight between the two men and a group that included Hernandez may have broken out at a nightclub in the theatre district. Following the fight, Abreu and Furtado left the club with three other men. Abreu, the driver of the car, stopped at a red light before making a left turn. A gray SUV with Rhode Island license plates pulled alongside the car and opened fire, killing the two men.
The case was investigated, but remains unsolved. Though officials were aware Hernandez was at the club that night, he was not a suspect.
“We are following every lead as we always do in these cases,” said Suffolk District Attorney Daniel F Conley. “We believe we are making progress, but at this moment in time it’s too premature to name any one individual as a suspect.”
And it doesn’t stop there!
TMZ recently obtained photos of Aaron Hernandez taken on June 15, just hours after the alleged nightclub brawl with Odin Lloyd.
The tight end was photographed shopping at a Marshalls in Massachusetts two days before Lloyd was shot to death. He posed with a fan and appeared to be all smiles.
Aaron was visiting the store with his fiancee and 8-month-old daughter at the time.
