I had heard an interview with the sheriff of the county where Hernandez was held (can't think of the name at the moment) and he said that they were worried Hernandez might be attacked in jail. Instead Hernandez attacked another inmate and threatened a police officer with both death to the officer and his family!

To be fair, Hernandez is accustomed to playing offense, not defense.

The NPR article I read said that he'd also been implicated in another pair of murders from several years ago. I think he's a loose cannon.

At least he's not a loose epson.

Boy, and I sometimes wonder if I have squandered my talents.

I'm glad he was convicted, but don't understand the defenses strategy of admitting that Hernandez was there and witnessed the murder.

If you're admitting you was there, you expect to get off by casting doubt about which of your friends did the deed?

Sorry. If you want us to believe you had nothing to do with it and were surprised to witness the murder, then take the stand and tell us the whole story, including who DID do it and why.

Glad the jury felt the same way.

Yup, I agree

Also agree. But I can understand part of the strategy, too much evidence that he was at the scene and apparently no evidence the defense could present to counter that. To then deny that he was at the scene would just make him look more guilty.

To then put him on the stand would only work if they could count on Hernandez to not say anything the prosecution could impeach him on during cross examination. Given his history, I doubt they expected that to further his case.
