Hernandez Could Walk

There were many things that led to Aaron Hernandez's eventual downfall. Aaron Hernandez's short career is already considered one of the best. Although he was an outstanding athlete and football player, his brutal past has finally emerged and gotten in the way of his success. From his fathers death, to his acceptance of his gangster friends, Hernandez has been traveling down the wrong road for far too long. This outstanding athlete had so much going for him. From being an all star tight end in high school, all the way to the NFL, he had a lot of background that a lot of people would not want to happen to them. His father died when he was 12 years old due to an infection of getting an operation. His mother then proceeded to marry an abusive coke dealer. She also got arrested when Hernandez was young which has been said to be the turning point of how Hernandez felt about his mom. There were many hardships in his life, but his father's death was the hardest to deal with. Hernandez has been a completely different person since. His father was a man who only wanted Hernandez and his brother to succeed. The thing is, they did. Hernandez's brother, DJ, was a 2 year captain at Connecticut, where he played quarterback for three years and wide receiver for two. Aaron Hernandez starred as a tight end in high school, putting up massive numbers rarely if not never seen by a tight end in high school. In college, he played at Florida alongside Tim Tebow, Maurkice Pouncey, and Mike Pouncey. Even Tim Tebow's powers were not enough to save the meantally scarred Aaron Hernandez. Now that's saying something. Hernandez had a series of encounters with police, scruffs at bars, drug problems, and many other problematic police encounters. Most of these problems can be attributed to his adoption of gangster friends after his fathers death. Some say he got the friends because they "stick together until the end". These gangsters could be capitalizing oh Hernandez's need for a father role, using him for his money, and getting him involved in things that could and obviously have gotten him in a lot of trouble. The thing that could let Hernandez go, is the fact that he has a LOOOOOOOOOTT of money. Even though he has no access to his assets, he can bribe people by saying that he will pay them a lot of money if he walks. This is what seems to be letting him get this far in the case in the first place.
