Aaron Hernandez
Hernandez, who was already serving a life sentence after being convicted of first-degree murder for the killing of Odin Lloyd, was facing murder charges for the deaths of Safiro Furtado and Daniel de Abreu, two men killed in a drive-by shooting outside of a Boston nightclub
To the surprise of many, Hernandez was found not guilty of the murder charges on Friday, April 14, though he was convicted of illegal possession of a firearm. He was convicted on just one of eight charges he was facing.

According to CNN, Hernandez was visibly emotional when Friday’s verdicts were read, embracing his attorneys with tears in his eyes. One of his attorneys said Hernandez was relieved about the verdict.
Hernandez is survived by his one daughter, Avielle Janelle Hernandez, who was born November 6, 2012, and his fiancee Shayanna Jenkins.
