Former NewEngland Patriots tight
end AaronHernandez was
indicted Thursday on first-degree murder and weapons charges in the
death of a friend whose bullet-riddled body was found in an
industrial park about a mile from the ex-player's home.
The
six-count grand jury indictment charges Hernandez with killing
27-year-old Odin Lloyd, a semi-professional football player from
Boston who was dating the sister of Hernandez's girlfriend.
Hernandez,
23, pleaded not guilty to murder and weapons charges in June, and he
is being held without bail.
He
had a brief court appearance in Attleboro on Thursday afternoon.Afterward, his attorney Michael Fee said the defense was pleased to
be on a path to a jury trial and was looking forward to testing the
prosecution's evidence.
"There
has been an incredible rush to judgment in this case," and the
state doesn't have enough evidence to prove the charges, he said.
Hernandez
last summer signed a contract worth $40 million but was cut by the
Patriots within hours of his June 26 arrest, when police led the
handcuffed athlete from his home as news cameras rolled. He could
face life in prison if convicted. See more..
