    Looks like he left a note for Tom Brady.

    DailyMail.com has learned from a well-placed source that Hernandez was planning his suicide for weeks and gave away personal belongings to inmates
    He covered the floor of his cell in soap so that he if he lost his nerve he wouldn't be able to save himself

    This story just doesn't end! Looks like the law states that since he committed suicide during the appeals process and can't defend himself the convictions get dropped. Which means the NFL may owe his family a pension and the Patriots may owe them millions from his contract that was withheld because of the convictions. I'm sure it'll be a legal battle either way.

    If that is why he killed himself then props to him for trying to do something good for his family and most of all his daughter. It would be one of the few decent things he's done with his life.

    Ask this daughter when she's 16 whether she'd rather have her father alive or a wad of cash her mother has probably already blown through. You demonstrate with your comments you neither understand the value of human life nor the value of currency. This was an act of cowardice, pure and simple. It is self-serving rubbish to try to wrap himself around religion or providing for a loved one. That's just a thin veil to try to hide his cowardice. Most rational people see right through it.

    Your view is as equally colored by your own blinkers as you claim Shane's to be.

    You are making leaps of judgement on the mother and how she will look after her child, you are also assuming that this child would rather have a peice of shit father in jail his whole life, needing to go visit him and never really have a realtionship with him - when she was 16, he would still be in prison, when she had kids, he would still be in prison, he would die in prison. Ask her if she would rather that life - or a secure future? I don't think its that hard to imagine her choosing the latter.

    Additionally, there is nothing cowardly about suicide (selfish, yes, cowardly - never), in the previous post you linked this suicide to suicide bombers - your whole position is just so extreme it is hard to take seriously - so much so i can't even tell if you are just trolling.

    As for these suicide bombers getting paid - all soldiers get paid, all soldiers know they could die - soldiers do not serve for free, they do so for money - to support their families. In extremely poor areas of depravation - even the decision to become a $10 taliban as we called them is not cowardice. It is an act that for whatever reason at taht time is deemed the best way to provide for their family.

    I think Hernadez is a peice of shit - but if that was his motives, i applaud him.

    Sounds like he couldn't live with his secret of liking the tube steak.

    I agree with you that an 18 year-old would rather have her father, assuming that he wasn’t abusive to them growing up, then a wad of cash. Maybe she’ll use the money wisely. Maybe, as has happened with many young athletes, celebrities, lottery winner, etc.; the windfall of money will send her down a path of self-destruction.

    Because he divorced her mother, her mother has no right to the money. It would most likely go into a trust fund that his daughter would get access to on her 18th birthday.

    I completely agree with you that OrangeHoof jumped to a lot of conclusions and made a lot of judgements about those he doesn’t know personally. As you know from my comments when "13 Reasons Why" was being discussed, I contemplated suicide for the 1st time at the age of 11, so I’m not so quick to rip in to those who attempt such acts. Considering that you mentioned that you had a mate who took his own life at 17 during this same discussion, its understandable that you’d have a strong emotional reaction to his comments. Nevertheless, his comments were filled with so much emotions that I can't help but wonder if he's been personally touch by suicide as well.

    The thing about having his Bible open to John 3:16, and having the verse reference written on his forehead, it speaks of someone who seeking divine favor before doing something completely contrary to what the Bible says. I’ve dealt with numerous individuals over the years who do superficial piety like this, and I can tell you that their actions are grounded in character flaws that they never addressed.

    I've been hospitalized twice in my life for suicidal depression and been in therapy groups with others so inclined. For some (not all) suicidal depression is a chemical state of the brain that needs to be attacked aggressively both through medicine, physical therapy and mental therapy. The second time through, I got the help I needed to successfully fight it and, praise God, it's been 20 years since I've been suicidal.

    Dave jumps to conclusions just as much as he attacks me for doing so. After his acquittal, Hernandez' attornies were appealing the original conviction and, if that was reduced or overturned, there was a chance he could get out so you can't assume he'd have spent the rest of his life in jail. The John 3:16 act was either the same behavior as Judas Iscariot when he realized the true consequences of his actions or, just as likely, a martyr syndrome where he sees himself as a martyr wrongfully convicted and punished and seeking to call attention to it with the red (blood?) markings on his hands and feet. Don't know the man personally so I can't tell you which reaction he had.

    But the bottom line is one never knows their future and how long a time in jail one might spend. Yes, he'd likely miss his daughter's growing-up years and risk his daughter's rejection but killing oneself won't ever help that. She is likely feeling that Hernandez preferred death to her and feels more abandoned now than ever.

    Someone once labelled suicide "a permanent solution to a temporary problem" and that's truly what it is. It's a selfish response, not a noble one and no amount of money changes that equation, nor should it.

    You realize this post is not related on anyway to your initial rant.

    Like I said, both of you were emotionally triggered, resulting in you both making strongly word posts. I reread his post and it was extremely confrontations, but all I read was him giving a different prospective of the subject. He did write it in the a manner that bashed your viewpoints, I saw nothing that I'd interpret as him bashing you personally.

    i view it as, the guy is backed up against a wall regardless, and he took the way out that he felt would benefit his family the most.

    I dont think i could live in prison for the rest of my life. A week in county was good enough for me to realize i want nothing to do with that place.
