United Kingdoma year ago - Lesson: don’t beat your wife and kids!
Aaron’s father gets off WAY too easy on this podcast. He beat his wife and sons! Got drunk and beat his family! Then the host “wonders” who could have made a difference???? Aaron’s father was a demon. That’s where the trouble started

Excellent!! thoroughly and truthfully investigated from all sides, exposing the Patriots failures and family dysfunction. I would never condone murder but this is a deep dive into how troubled he was, and how physical and emotional trauma affected him. It makes one question if Aaron Hernandez was drafted to a team anywhere else, would he have walked a different path? Maybe not, but this podcast made me wonder.
Apple Podcasts5KBoolayUnited States2 years ago - Great series!
Really good reporting. Thanks for being so thorough!
Apple Podcasts5Oceang1rlNYUnited States2 years ago - Not enough details
They podcast didn’t go into why Aaron killed his friend, didn’t explore or delve into his early life or upbringing. This was a general over view of case
