Aaron Hernandez's Fiancee Says Former TE Thought He'd Be Freed

Adam WellsMay 12, 2017

Shayanna Jenkins-Hernandez said her fiance, former New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez, believed he was going to be freed from prison.

Per the Associated Press, Jenkins-Hernandez said during an upcoming appearance on Dr. Phil that Hernandez said "daddy's going to be home ... I can't wait to hold you and love you" during a phone conversation shortly before he was found dead.

Hernandez was serving a life sentence without parole after being convicted of the 2013 murder of Odin Lloyd. The conviction was formally vacated May 9 by a Massachusetts judge because he died before the appeal was heard.
