Aaron Hernandez Indicted For Double Homicide

    Formal charges have been brought against Hernandez for his involvement in a 2012 drive-by shooting.

    Former New England Patriot Aaron Hernandez has been indicted on murder charges for the deaths of Daniel Jorge Correia de Abreu and Safiro Teixeira Furtado.

    The 2012 Boston incident was a drive-by shooting, with Hernandez now believed to be the shooter. Abreu and Furtado were pronounced dead on the scene.

    At the time, the police had known Hernandez had been at a nightclub where a fight occurred prior to the Boston homicides. He was investigated in connection with this incident after he was indicted for the unrelated 2013 murder of Odin Lloyd.

    In a press conference, District Attorney Daniel. F. Conley told reporters their investigation was "never about Aaron Hernandez. This was about the victims."

    Hernandez is currently being held without bail after pleading not guilty of the 2013 murder of Odin Lloyd.
