The guy is a POS and deserved this and more but, I can't help but feel sorry for his little girl. The girl was in tears while he was being led away by his guards at his trial not understanding why her father couldn't come home with her. Having a little girl myself...that broke my heart. This will be devastating for her.
When I heard the news I immediately struck me as being a little strange in terms of being out of character. Hernandez never struck me as the kind of guy to commit suicide even in his situation. He had already been locked up for a few years and was just coming off being aquitted in a double homicide case iirc. It just struck me as odd which leads me to my point. Hernandez had just been aquitted but there surely would have been a civil case/trial in which he would have surely been found liable meaning that the vast majority or all of his money would have gone to the plaintiff/s.
It is just speculation on my part but perhaps committing suicide was his way of making sure his daughter was taken care of financially because if he is dead there can be no civil trial. The guy has had years to think about what an absolute piece of **** he was during his life and how he threw away a life most dream of. Perhaps he felt that this was the best way to protect his daughter was to take himself out. Again this is just speculation on my part and I am certainly not trying to portray him as some good guy that made some mistakes because the guy was a giant bag of *****. Is it possible that he thought that he could at least do this one thing for his daughter since his own life was basically forfeit? I know we have our share of attorneys here so I would like one of you to tell me if what I'm saying has any legal merit. Could Hernandez be tried in civil court posthumously or am I totally off the mark?
Loophole has something to do with Patriots money now owed to Hernandez family bc of the acquittal.
