I am one who has been adamant that he is innocent until proven guilty, to not jump to conclusions. I still maintain that AH's case must be presented before a decision is fair. Please keep in mind that an advocate just stepped up and advocated his case, the district attorney. When AH's attorney's get to present their case, the situation could seem very different to you and many.
With that said, I am glad the DA's case was presented and the evidence, if true, strongly, albeit circumstantially, that AH shot the victim or was involved. Given this, given that the case laid out suggests with strength that AH did this, I am glad the Patriot's released him. Even if he didn't do this, the circumstances sound very bad for a Patriot player to be involved in and it is best he was released. And if a presentation by AH's defense does not address the evidence in a meaningful, factual way that refutes it, AH given a prison term is a good thing. But again, please keep in mind you just heard an advocate of one side. One side of story has been presented, another side of a story may exist that is also compelling. Likely? I don't know. Possible? Certainly.
This is not court and if I were on the jury I would actually be a fair one. In fact I am the kind of guy who a prosecution would not want because I can always come up with another explanation. The best he can hope is that the defense can prove someone else with them shot him and I don't think that would even help as AH drove him to where he was killed and then covered it up after. That is not obstruction but murder too.
