Aaron Hernandez is being investigated by the FBI in connection with “multiple murders” and additional charges may soon be forthcoming, according to news reports.
Fox News is reporting other people are “talking and fingering” Hernandez as allegedly being involved in a series of other violent crimes. The former New England Patriots star is now still being held without bail in the Bristol County House of Corrections on first-degree murder charges in the execution-style slaying of one-time associate Odin Lloyd.
Rumors have long circulated that Hernandez was also being probed in connection with the still unsolved 2012 slayings of Safiro Furtado and Daniel Abreu in Boston, according to news reports. A Suffolk County grand jury is now reported to be weighing evidence in that case.
Hernandez has also been sued by a Florida man who claims the 23-year-old one-time rising star shot him in the face, causing extensive damage including the loss of his right eye, at the height of a heated dispute they engaged in while leaving a strip club.
As for Lloyd, news reports are Hernandez grew disenchanted with him after the former semi-pro football player learned of his NFL pal’s alleged involvement in the Boston murders and dared to discuss it with people who knew the victims.
Still others have speculated the case may soon turn federal given its widening nature and Hernandez could ultimately face the death penalty.
