Kinda surprised by this. I figured he would get out of it.
Always tough to tell what goes on in a trial and the courtroom by watching it on the news. The jury has a significantly different view.
Having said that, it seemed pretty slam dunk to me if the Prosecutors did a good job. Seemed they did.
Aaron thought the same thing. He was so sure that his celebrity status would prevail. I hear he’s still getting marriage proposals from nutcases out there.
Same here. Never thought he’d get First Degree. Wow!
I’m in Mass, and they talk about the trial on the media. I thought there was very little evidence that sounded like it went in his favor. I think the defense was trying to point the finger at the other guys in the car—even admitting at the end of the trial that Hernandez was there at the murder.
That seems weak, considering that he was the guy who called everyone, put the crew together, and picked up Lloyd. Without some plausible story relating the other people to Lloyd, the “it just happened while I was there” story is preposterous.
Then again, OJ got off, for a while.
