Aaron Hernandez won’t be going away anytime sooner, especially since he still has a double-murder charge to deal with.
Hernandez, already convicted of murdering Odin Lloyd in June 2013, now faces charges of a double-murder arising from a drive-by shooting in Boston back in July 2012.
Hernandez can’t testify against himself perse, but according to court rules his gun-play tattoos can!
Per TMZ Sports, a judge has ruled that certain tattoos will be admissible at the trial arising from the killing of Daniel de Abreu and Safiro Furtado.
In the murder case, prosecutors believe the killer fired 5 shots from a revolver … and believe it’s no coincidence that Aaron went out and got a tat of a revolver with 5 bullets along with the words, “God Forgives.”Hernandez’s double murder trial is set to begin next month.
Prosecutors also believe another tattoo of a semi-automatic pistol with a single spent shell casing commemorates the time he shot a guy in the face in 2013 with a semi-automatic pistol.
Aaron’s lawyers argued that the tats should NOT be admissible — claiming it was “rank speculation.”
But the judge ruled there’s too much of a connection to ignore — and will allow prosecutors to present them as evidence in court.
