It’s full speed ahead for the Aaron Hernandez murder trial and today his fiancee Shayanna Jenkins has taken the stand. Let’s keep in mind that she was granted immunity so the chances that she’s going to sing like a canary are quite high. Then again, she’s remained loyal thus far so things could go either way.
Shayanna and Hernandez have been together since high school. They have a 2 year old daughter together. Hernandez is accused of killing Odin Lloyd , who was dating Shayanna‘s younger sister, Shaneah.
According to ESPN.com, Shayanna Jenkins has pleaded not guilty to perjury in connection with the case. Prosecutors say she lied to a grand jury investigating the killing. Shayanna has been coming to court sporadically and sitting behind Hernandez, whispering “I love you,” to him and occasionally joking with him. She has not appeared in court since March 6. When Shaneah was called to testify earlier in the trial, Shayanna scribbled notes and then passed them to Hernandez’s lawyers, occasionally sighing as her sister spoke.
Here’s the thing though, surveillance cameras show Shayanna removing what they believe to be the murder weapon from the home she and Aaron Hernandez share. Unfortunately the murder weapon has yet to be found. The State Fire Arms examiner also testified that shell casings found in Hernandez’s rental car match those found at the crime scene. This case can go either way, to be honest. Seems like an episode of Law & Order to me.
We’ll have to wait and see what Shayanna says in court. Something tells me she’s going to stand by her man. What about you?
