Aaron Hernandez attorneys seek dismissal of tattoo and text evidence
Jurors at Aaron Hernandez’s upcoming double murder trial shouldn’t hear about his tattoos or text messages sent to his sports agent, attorneys for the former New England Patriots player told a judge Tuesday.
Hernandez is charged with killing two men in a 2012 drive-by shooting, because one of the men bumped into the former football star in a Boston nightclub, prosecutors said.
Aaron Hernandez had tattoos done soon after the victims were killed that link him to the slayings.

Hernandez, who attended Tuesday’s hearing wearing a suit and a tie, has pleaded not guilty to killing 29-year-old Daniel de Abreu and 28-year-old Safiro Furtado. His trial is scheduled to start in February.
Hernandez had tattoos done soon after the victims were killed that link him to the slayings, prosecutor Patrick Haggan said in court.
After the fact, no Steelers player said he was worried about resetting for a new play, which would have been difficult at the 9-second mark. They were putting all their trust in Brown to win it.
“I know I’m going to take some contact, and I knew after that I was going to be able to get the ball in,” Brown said in the locker room.

Officials easily could have called a face-mask penalty on Weddle. They didn’t have to make that call because of the score. But had Brown failed to cross the plane, it’s unknown whether the refs actually caught the foul amid all the traffic.
And there was traffic. Linebacker Zachary Orr was closing in. Powers was still in the haze of his missed opportunity but near the play. Guard Ramon Foster was bolting into the play to try to push Brown through, just as he did with Le’Veon Bell on an earlier fourth-quarter touchdown.
