According to investigators, Hernandez sat in his vehicle, waiting for the men to exit the venue.
It was said that Hernandez allegedly drove up to the car that the four men were in, yelled a racial slur, and then sprayed the car with bullets. Sanches and another, unidentified man were wounded in the attack that killed de Abreu and Furtado.
Weeks after the incident, Hernandez signed a substantial contract extension with the New England Patriots that included a $12.5 million signing bonus.
During Hernandez’ trial in Lloyd’s death, the prosecution alleged Hernandez and two other men picked up Lloyd at his home during the early morning hours of June 17, 2013. According to testimony, they drove Lloyd to a secluded industrial park and shot him seven times. Prosecutors alleged Hernandez orchestrated the murder.
A judge sentenced Aaron Hernandez to life in prison. He will never be eligible for parole.
Jury selection for the 2012 homicides is scheduled to commence on Feb. 13, 2017. After this report surfaced, Hernandez’s attorneys declined to comment.
