Covers much much more details and is a must watch imo. Just go on your Netflix , search Aaron Hernandez to find the documentary ,if it doesn't Pop up on your home screen. Just came out at midnight . Gotta say , this really made me feel for Hernandez and all parties involved in this tragedy . I love good documentaries and this one sounds intriguing. Thanks for mentioning it. I'll watch for sure.
machine gun kelly Posted January 15, 2020 Posted January 15, 2020 I’m not watching this at all. On my ex-wife’s side who I am still friends, two people who were sexually abused and two of the older generation brutally physically and mentally abused, and they chose to be good people in their lives and are or were very religious and kind human beings. There is no excuse for a multiple murderer. What about those families and how they feel after their child sibling or children feel knowing the person so close to them was killed in cold blood. I don’t need to know anymore. Someone brutally rapes and murders you’re wife or children, ok I have some mercy. I couldn’t fathom that kind of pain. But his story is not that. 2
C.Biscuit97 Posted January 15, 2020 Posted January 15, 2020 So I open this thread and a Netflix notification about it just popped up. Creepy. 1

Mental health is a tricky (and sometimes scary) thing. Who knows how someone else’s mind works? Sadly, sometimes it’s just a mess..... . Edited January 15, 2020 by Augie 7
HomeTeam Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 This is an incredibly sad story on all fronts. 2
LSHMEAB Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 Nobody has to feel "bad" for the guy, but he paid the ultimate price for his horrible decisions. He paid his debt as far as I'm concerned. Anyways, life is complicated. Of course he had to be held accountable for taking lives. But recognizing the guy had some SERIOUS psychological issues going on should not be conflated with justifying his actions. 5 1

BuffaloRebound Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 It’s definitely captivating but leaves a lot of holes. No family members are interviewed. Just a couple dudes he went to high school with and a guy who was a friend of the guy he killed. And some lawyers. Not as deep of a dive as most of the OJ specials. Captivating nonetheless. Didn’t know or forgot the Patriots hooked him up with an apartment away from his fiancé and baby daughter where he could hide out from people he thought wanted to kill him.
Call_Of_Ktulu Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 I won’t watch it if any of the money goes to the Hernandez family. Horrible human being. 2
I'm Spartacus Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 I will watch it. But first I need to finish Power Watching "Mad Men" for the 3rd time! 1

He was a confused person since childhood. Making him a victim of head trauma from football is a very convenient excuse for lawyers. 1
jrober38 Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 9 hours ago, JerseyBills said: Ya that definitely seemed to be a huge part of it. Definitely feel he had onset CTE. Crazy seeing Brady/Tebow meet and first thing Brady said was "I'm watching over Aaron" This doc is great. Very interesting and detailed I'm pretty sure it was reported he had Stage 4 CTE at the time of his death. I think the headline was he had the most severe case of CTE ever studied in a person his age. 3

RiotAct Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 gotta admit, that was pretty classy of the Pats* letting fans exchange their Hernandez jerseys once he was arrested. 1

I think it was one of many factors. Interesting part was his childhood friend saying how he wished he was drafted as far as possible from Connecticut and maybe that's true 1
thenorthremembers Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 Halfway through part one and I gotta tell you the high school qb and his dad dont seem that credible to me.

Gotta say , this really made me feel for Hernandez and all parties involved in this tragedy . Thanks, I'll take a look. The in-depth stories on the guy do seem to show a kid who started out as a genuinely good kid. As a big tough kid (high school, I believe), he was threatened with a knife and just handled it really well, non-violently, and with no retribution. Losing his dad really seemed to have bad effects, as did his choice of friends as he grew older.

And it wasn't just psychological issues, it was physiological brain damage. Edited January 16, 2020 by Thurman#1 1
Happy Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 I read an article about Aaron Hernandez a couple of years back that mentioned he was gay in high school, which wouldn't have gone over well with his father had it been known. Apparently his father was pretty tough on Aaron. Was any of this mentioned?
