Hernandez Decision Rests With Jury
A 12-person jury will start to deliberate the evidence in the Aaron Hernandez murder case in Massachusetts. The former New England Patriots is charged with the death of Odin Lloyd in June of 2013.
The prosecution and defense presented closing arguments. The judge gave instructions to the jurors. Now the wait begins.
Hernandez' defense lawyer admitted for the first time that his client was at the scene of the killing but put the blame on co-defendants Ernest Wallace and Carlos Ortiz. Both of those men have pleaded not guilty and will be tried later.
The prosecution told jurors to go through all the evidence and it will lead them to Hernandez.
This trial began back in January.
