FALL RIVER, Mass. (AP) - Former New England Patriots player Aaron Hernandez has been found guilty of first-degree murder. He has been sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.

A Massachusetts jury on Wednesday found Hernandez killed Odin Lloyd on June 17, 2013. Lloyd was dating the sister of Hernandez's fiancee. He was found shot six times in an industrial park less than a mile from Hernandez's home.

At the time, Hernandez had a $40 million contract with the Patriots.

Hernandez's lawyer acknowledged during closing arguments that he was there when Lloyd was killed. But he pinned the shooting on Hernandez's two friends, saying his client was a 23-year-old kid who didn't know what to do.

Prosecutors said Hernandez planned the killing and then helped cover it up

“Between those two, prison is home.”

What’s that supposed to mean?

Both of my parents are of Italian ancestry, and none of my relatives on either side have ever been in jail, much less prison.

"It ain’t about what *he’s*_comfortable with. He’s never done time"

He done plenty of time in a street gang and he's a big, strong guy very used to using violence against others. What type of people do you think these prison gangs recruit? Heck, he may already be a member from the pre-trial time he's done.

Didn’t I see a post yesterday about a ex-NFL player accused of murdering his cellmate?

Being a tight end will make him popular in jail.

He'll be a wide receiver in no time.

In most states,yes.In Massachusets he'll get a pardon when the next Rat is elected Governor...which will be in 3 years.

Ugh, I hope you're wrong.

One question: Is Hernandez' "fiancee" the sister of Odin Lloyd? I just learned today that she and Hernandez have a (baby?) daughter. Good grief...

Oh yeah that’s another one, Lawrence Phillips of the Rams in jail for car theft and trying to kill his wife and 3 teens. These football teams pick real winners.

Actually, a number of so-called “Hispanics” actually are white. It depends on their ancestry. If those relatives who came over from Spain did not intermarry with the local Amerindians, then their descendants are just as white as descendants of English settlers who married whites only. The problem with Hispanics is that most of the original whites did intermarry with the local population and it’s the touch, often a lot more than a touch, of Amerindian, that makes them “Hispanic” for the purposes of the AA bean counters.

Apology accepted. Have a nice day.

P.S.: Some of those Italian relatives on my father’s side were born in, and lived their lives, in western Pennsylvania.

He’s hiss-panic. You know the other white race. The one that really isn’t white. Or something.

Hispanics are catalogued as white when they commit crimes, but they're "hispanic" when they are victims of crimes. No joke.

This is what Adam Sandler would look like if he lifted weights and got tattoos.
