People are somehow always shocked to learn that many of then men who excel in the extremely violent sport of football are not the most well adjusted rational folks.

Hernandez's pre-draft scouting report:

“Self-esteem is quite low; not well-adjusted emotionally, not happy, moods unpredictable, not stable, doesn’t take much to set him off, but not an especially jumpy guy,” the scout read.

Patriots probably found that to be a glowing report.

You must not be on Twitter. Conspiracy theories off and running. Beat double murder rap and was going to get sprung at some point. Very fishy stuff. Amazing how much sympathy people have for this guy.

He was serving a life sentence without the possibility of parole, how was he going to get sprung?

I think any large group of people will have a few bad seeds. I don't think football is a logical precursor.

For a Hernandez there is a Julio Machado (who had a Swiss cheese alibi),for a Ray Rice there is a Milton Bradley. Bad people just exist and this was one especially bad person.

I hope there is some money left in the estate for the families of the victims.

... and his daughter. Who is going to have this to carry around for the rest of her life. I haven't been following the trials. Hopefully the mother is a good person. (As compared to him who wouldn't be.)

And as far as history is concerned, due to a glitch in Massachusetts law, he will now go down as innocent of the murder he was convicted of.

He could of written a book about his life and made money for his family. He woldnt be allowed to profit of a crime, but he could talk about the allegations and his side of story around the trial that he won.

He still would of had visitation with his daughter....not sure why he did what he did

What pisses me off about this is that his lawyer came out with a statement implying that he would never had committed suicide, even though there were a number of things jammed up against the cell door - from the inside - keeping anyone from stopping him from what he decided to do.

Isn't it time for him and all those who believed in Hernandez to finally admit that they really did not know him as well as they thought?

AMF. And I don't mean adios my friend!

Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

I think someone said in a movie once, "Pantangeli's small potatoes."

I live for the day that those two freaks that did that home invasion in Connecticut a few years ago are found dead in their cells - and not from hanging.

Killed some hard working dude who accidentally bumped into him at a club. Unreal. No tears shed here that this guy is off the earth.

Wow. The court of public opinion's lack of faith in the judicial system can be breathtaking sometimes.

Don't know what that last comment means. He was convicted of first degree murder, was he not? Maybe I'm confusing the facts of what he was convicted of. And just because someone was not convicted of a crime does not mean he didn't do it. It means his guilt could not be established by the State beyond a reasonable doubt. See OJ Simpson.

Yes but it has been well earned.

I feel sorry for everyone involved. No matter how bad someone is there are people that loved them and will miss them dearly.

Guilty or not I'm not buying that this was a suicide. It seems just as likely that the number of things jammed up against the door were staged to help someone else get away with murder.

The items were, reportedly, jammed up against the door on the INSIDE and he was in a single person cell...come on Sherlock...think!

I don't really understand the conspiracy theories either. I mean, this guy was HUGE. It would take more than one person to subdue him enough to hang him and I don't hear anyone reporting any external injuries on him.

Always expect conspiracy theories.

I remember when a collector showed me an original item he'd won at auction that he was worried was a fake. He brought up all these details, which I said weren't a problem. I finally said "You're just going to have to accept the fact that it's authentic."

Don't let the facts get in the way of baseless speculation now.

Who reported that? A prison official? Has anyone seen proof of what was jammed up against the door, or that only Hernandez could have done it? If that has been released I haven't seen it. Until then I will have my doubts. If nothing else the timing alone is suspicious.

My God, can we please move off of Hernandez? He was a piece of garbage, period....Also, the timing of his suicide could be in accordance with his former team going to the White House on the same day..Depression maybe?

Guess the medical examiner/DA's office who ruled it a suicide are in on the plot, and the three suicide notes they found are fake too.
