O.T. Aaron Hernandez got jacked up?

Who jacked him off? His cell mate?

Its totally true. There is always someone tougher. Even in the prison system. I bet if you dropped Ahern in another prison in say Turkey or Columbia or even ADX in Colorado where the send the baddest of the Arian Brotherhood, Crips and Le Eme he wouldn't survive a week.

Those places make Souza-Baranowski CC in Shirley look like Six Flags

ADX prisons are essentially safer the normal prisons. They get zero shared time with other inmates. Pretty hard to get jacked up.

That is accurate. They do get a 1hr of exercise yard time.That all some of these dudes need.

That's not Aaron Hernandez. That's Roger Goodell and his thugs heading for the en banc hearing at the US Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit. You can tell by the orange Denver Broncos pants.

I think losing his father was a big catalyst to the road he went down.

Many people lose their father and don't become murderers

I understand that but if I remember correctly losing his father is when he started to get closed off or something. I can't remember the details.

He has extreme reactions to what he perceives as disrespect. This was clear in one or two prison fights that were reported early on. Also, it seems like a major contributing factor to the murder(s) that got him into prison in the first place.

**** him, who cares.

How true - Most of the biggest badasses I know in the martial arts world are super humble guys. These guys only became badasses by getting beat up repeatedly by guys who were better than them.

That is correct. His father died, he became completely withdrawn but according to his mom got better.

No one knows for sure if the residual of that tragedy put AH on a path to violence or not. It could have been something else.

TC in jail is tough ....

I can't believe he's still only 26.

I still can't believe he threw away his career like that. How can you be gifted an opportunity of a lifetime and go down a path like that? It's just sad.

It doesn't matter. Losing your father doesn't turn someone into murdering psychopath with no regard for human life.
There is no need to make excuses for this piece of human filth.

Something else like being a scumbag psychopath who kills people for fun.
Nothing happened to cause that, it's who he is

No ******** but there actually have been studies done that suggest murders and rapists are deficient in various enzymes, malformed areas of the brain and genetic dispositions to poor impulse control and violence.

True. My old boss was supposedly some N'th degree black belt in one or two martial arts disciplines and entered some open tournament (way before MMA as far as I know) got his jaw broken and dislocated his knee in one of the rounds but still advanced, drove his motorcycle home and back for the next round and won the next round. You would NEVER and I mean NEVER suspect this guy as being a badass.

(some of the details are hazy as he was my boss around 2002 but that's the gist of it)

Is it making excuses or attempting to understand what made him choose to follow this path? I don't think anyone has stated he should be forgiven and his crimes overlooked.

I'm amazed Welker is still alive after he dissed rookie AH when AH was asking questions in the weight room.

But there is nothing to understand. It's who he is. And yes finding reasons to blame his actions on someone or something else is absolutely making excuses.

He's a brutal monster without any conscience and, in my opinion, is not deserving of one ounce of sympathy. I don't think anyone here was making excuses for him or blaming anyone else. Citing things which may have contributed to his development is not excuse-making. I think you may have misunderstood.
