FALL RIVER, Mass. (AP) – Opening statements have begun in the murder trial of former New England Patriots player Aaron Hernandez.
Prosecutor Roger Bomberg addressed the jury Thursday after a brief delay in the trial. One juror was late getting to court, and another juror sent a note to the judge.
Hernandez has pleaded not guilty to killing semiprofessional football player Odin Lloyd in 2013. Lloyd was dating the sister of Hernandez’s fiancee, Shayanna Jenkins.
Hernandez had a $40 million contract as a tight end with the Patriots when he was arrested in June 2013 and charged with murder. Prosecutors say he and two friends picked Lloyd up, drove him to an industrial park and shot him to death.
They have not said who pulled the trigger but said Hernandez orchestrated the killing.
