Hernandez guilty of 1st degree murder

Sentencing verdict is in

Life without parole
 
Life without parole. Very shortly he will be yesterdays news. They think he killed Lloyd because he knew too much about the 2012 killings that the gangster may have also committed too. He's 25 and he has maybe the next 50 years to think about what might have been. Moron!
 
odds on Hernandez committing suicide?
 
I definitely think he is guilty but I am actually surprised they convicted him of 1st degree murder with just circumstantial evidence. No witness. No murder weapon. There is no doubt he will appeal.
 
Doesn't he have gang ties? He may be running the place. Also, didn't he whoop some dudes *** when he got a little time out of solitary?

Yeah, I was thinking he'll likely fare better in prison than most. Let's face it, football players are freakishly strong and he'll probably have the respect of the other inmates. Although compared to what his life could have been like it still sucks. Never understand why these guys who have stuff other people can only dream of will throw it all away.
 
He's a boss inside, Im pretty sure of that. He's likely as comfortable as one can possibly be inside. Between his gang affilitations and celebrity, he's kickin it. He just now gets to kick it forever.

The appeal is automatic with that sentence.
 
How stupid do you have to be to give this guy a $40M contract?
 
Won a bet on the verdict that I didn't expect to win. Though he looks guilty as hell, the judge seemed to throw out a lot of the relevant evidence.

Missing a murder weapon is not that big a deal. Eye witnesses are the most unreliable type of evidence ever presented. Eye witnesses result in convictions that are in error more than any other type of evidence and are the result so many prisoners ultimately get released based on DNA evidence years later.

minimum 2nd degree, if he didn't shoot he was a big accessory on the murder. the evidence that shows that four guys left and just three came back is irrefutable.

1st degree murder isn't based on circumstantial evidence. It is based on intent.

If in the heat of the moment you and I argued and I pulled out a gun and shot you, its 2nd degree. If I plan it out and know I am going to set you up ahead of time, its 1st degree. I know this from my best friend being murdered after a set up.
 
Guilty on all charges

I'm not arguing his guilt. I think he is guilty. However, many in the legal arena thought he might get off as the evidence was all circumstantial. What was the intent? I never heard that proven either but maybe I missed that. Either way, intent doesn't mean anyone did anything. How do they know he pulled out a gun? Is there a gun? Is there a witness? Did his home security show him shoot him? Even if, as someone mentioned, it is an automatic appeal for this conviction, there is no doubt he would appeal even being guilty. OJ got off and there was more circumstantial evidence against him. Just saying here because I do think he killed the guy.

He will spend at least the first 10 in super max, it will suck... With his attitude and gang ties he may stay longer.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circumstantial_evidence

A popular misconception is that circumstantial evidence is less valid or less important than direct evidence.

Much of the evidence against convicted American bomber Timothy McVeigh was circumstantial, for example. Speaking about McVeigh's trial, University of Michigan law professor Robert Precht said, "Circumstantial evidence can be, and often is much more powerful than direct evidence." [3] The 2004 murder trial of Scott Peterson was another high-profile conviction based heavily on circumstantial evidence.
