CNN has a captivating play-by-play proposed by investigators that goes into detail how the morning of June 17 most likely developed — the morning they claim former Patriots star Aaron Hernandez murdered Odin Lloyd. What’s crazy is that the crucial piece of evidence isn’t a weapon or a testimony, but bubblegum.
CNN:
Hernandez and the other two later took the car back to the rental company.
There, the defendant offered an attendant a piece of blue Bubblicious, prosecutors say.
What appeared to be a piece of chewed blue gum was left lying inside the vehicle, prosecutors say. Next to it was a spent .45-caliber casing.
It matches the empty shells Investigators recovered near Lloyd’s body, prosecutors say.
If that gum was in Hernandez’s mouth, DNA tests will connect him to the casings, prosecutors say.
When investigators inspected Lloyd’s body, they found keys in his pockets to a rental car registered in Hernandez’s name.
According to MyFoxBoston, police entered Hernandez’s home again Friday morning to investigate the football player as possible link to a separate double homicide that happened last summer.
