If you thought Lamar Odom was the only pro-athlete to get into hard drugs, you may be wrong. Reports are saying Aaron Hernandez, who is currently facing a murder trial, was heavily into angel dust. Could this explain his anger issues and paranoia?
Rolling Stone Magazine recently wrote a piece on Aaron Hernandez’ life and the people he surrounded himself with. The piece titled “The Gangster in the Huddle,” tells the tale of drug use, cover ups and how drugs ran his entire family. Here are a few key points from the article.
• Hernandez was a heavy user of angel dust, and had become so paranoid over the last year that he carried a gun wherever he went.
• He surrounded himself with a cohort of gangsters, and cut himself off from his family and teammates.
• Hernandez had so infuriated his head coach, Bill Belichick, with missed practices and thug-life stunts, that he was one misstep from being cut.
• Both his parents, Dennis and Terri, had criminal records, as did much of his extended family.
• Terri allegedly cheated on Dennis before his death with a violent drug dealer named Jeffrey Cummings, then married Cummings after Dennis died and moved him into the house she shared with Aaron.
• In college his coach (then-University of Florida head coach Urban Meyer) may have helped cover up failed drug tests, along with two violent incidents — an assault and a drive-by shootout outside a local bar.
