As you are well aware, Antonio Brown taking nasty and brutal shots at others is his thing. We found that out when he refused to stop trolling Caitlin Clark to the point that she had to block him on every social media platform.

Murder Conviction For Aaron Hernandez Was Restored After Suicide
Aaron, who played for the Patriots from 2010 to 2012, was arrested during the offseason of 2013 and later found guilty of the murder of Odin Llyod in 2015.
After Aaron was charged for the murder of Odin, he was later charged with a double homicide, and faced a 2017 trial, where he was found not guilty.
However, he would commit suicide days later.
In the aftermath, a judge threw out his conviction on the existing principle that dictated that someone found guilty who dies before having a chance to have his appeal reviewed should no longer be considered guilty.
That changed in 2019 when the Supreme Judicial Court in Massachusetts eliminated that “outdated” state legal principle.
“The SJC has ruled that Aaron Hernandez’s conviction for the 2013 murder of Odin Lloyd will stand,” Bristol County District Attorney Thomas Quinn III said, per NBC Boston. “We are pleased justice is served in this case, the antiquated practice of vacating a valid conviction is being eliminated, and the victim’s family can get the closure they deserve.”
