About this episode

Aaron Hernandez showed exceptional athletic talent from a young age. In high school, he was recruited to play football at the University of Florida, and ultimately he left college early to join the NFL. It seemed like Aaron had everything. He was a millionaire playing for a top NFL team. He was engaged to his high school sweetheart and had a daughter with her, and he was a talented football player with a promising future. But, Aaron’s success abruptly came to an end when he was charged with murder in June 2013. 

Join Mike and Gibby as they finish up with part 2 on Aaron Hernandez. We cover his multiple trials, his death, and the news that followed about his personal life and CTE. There were a number of people with Aaron the night that Odin Lloyd was killed. Just exactly what role did they play and what should their sentences have been?
