BOSTON —Former New England Patriot Aaron Hernandez has been indicted on murder charges in connection with a shooting that left two men dead in Boston in 2012.
Daniel de Abreu and Safiro Furtado were shot to death as they sat in a car in Boston's South End on July 16, 2012.
Hernandez is accused of shooting the men after pulling up alongside in a sport utility vehicle. De Abreu suffered a fatal gunshot wound to the chest, and Furtado suffered a fatal shot to the head.
"These men were ambushed and executed as they drove home along Shawmut Avenue," Suffolk County District Attorney Daniel Conley said. "Neither of (the victims) were involved in gangs, guns or violence of any kind. Their chance encounter inside a club triggered a series of events that culminated in these murders."
Hernandez is expected to face the new charges in Suffolk Superior Court.
Hernandez came under scrutiny in case following his arrest in the slaying of Odin Lloyd, a semi-professional football
player whose body was found June 17 near Hernandez's North Attleborough home.
Hernandez has pleaded not guilty to murder in the Lloyd case and is being held without bail.
According to a December search warrant released earlier this year, surveillance camera recordings showed Hernandez and another man, Alexander Bradley, going into the Boston nightclub Cure at about 12:30 a.m. on July 16, 2012, shortly after the shooting victims went into the club.
Hernandez's movements inside the club weren't recorded, but police said Hernandez quickly downed two drinks and that he and Bradley left after about 10 minutes. Surveillance video then showed Hernandez driving a Toyota 4Runner out of a nearby parking garage with Bradley as a passenger, the warrant said.
The footage shows the victims leaving the club at about 2:10 a.m., and Hernandez's SUV passing by them twice as they walked to a parking garage to get their car, the warrant said. The shooting wasn't recorded by any cameras.
A third man who was shot in the car but survived, Aquilino Freire, told police an SUV pulled up next to them while they were stopped at a traffic light, and he saw someone in the SUV's back seat laughing, the warrant said. Then, several gunshots were fired from the rear passenger seat into the car, Freire told police. Two other people in the car ran away, Freire said.
A witness in another car told investigators that he saw an SUV with Rhode Island license plates run a red light, stop next to the victims' car and he heard six gunshots. He described the SUV driver as a light-skinned Hispanic man with short dark hair.

Astounding isn't it? Hernandez had already made millions in his football career and was about to sign a mega million dollar deal but he couldn't leave behind the "life". Many former thugs who achieve success in sports isolate themselves in multi million dollar mansions and say to hell with all that shit. What is it about some that can't? I don't feel sorry for him and don't really care, just vacates a spot in the NFL for someone who might actually appreciate what he has. Jerry
Plenty of steroids in the man I bet too. Makes you super aggressive and willing to use violence at the slightest provocation. And do so too.
Club life is so much fun. Go every night to a night spot with the entourage and run up a prodigious tab which the hangers on expect you to pay. Soon no matter how much you make it is blown on drugs, drink, women, etc.
