About this listen

From teenage gang member to $40 million star of the New England Patriots, from All-American college player to drug addict, murderer, dead by suicide in his jail cell at age 27...you think you know the Aaron Hernandez story? You don’t.

For the first time, Aaron Hernandez’s Killing Fields will reveal the real, hitherto unknown motive for the killing of Odin Lloyd - the only crime for which Hernandez was ever convicted and a revelation so shocking it will shake the foundations of the NFL itself. It will also unpick a pattern of violence and brutality stretching back to his time as a teenager at the University of Florida, revealing further shooting victims, evidence of his involvement in the double murder of Daniel de Abreu and Safiro Furtado in 2012.

Featuring new interviews with Hernandez’s cellmates, serving police investigators, prosecutors, psychologists, attorneys - as well as key witnesses including Hernandez’s drug dealer, a male stripper he hired days before the killing of Lloyd - plus extensive testimony from relatives of Hernandez’s victims, Aaron Hernandez’s Killing Fields is the exhaustive, definitive account of the rise and fall of a man undone by his own appetite for violence, gangsterism, power, drugs, and self-destruction.

This is the real Aaron Hernandez story - and perhaps just the beginning of a whole new murder investigation.

I'm glad I listen to this book.
I've watched the documentary of it the other night on Netflix and I don't no why but I don't think he killed himself.
but that's my opinion

worth listening

this is guess work at best, for 1 why would he be so adamant to want to kill someone for as you say over wanting to keep "his" hiv medication ( if it ever existed ) a secret, but openly discuss this very thing openly in front of many other people. for 2 why would he openly bring a male stripper to his apartment whilst having friends there if he tried so hard to keep his sexuality a secret..? from start to finish this is at best guess work apart from the story that's already known to the public.

I feel this is mostly untrue & contradictory.

There seems to be a lot that pops up in this story I've never heard before and some of it seems outright unbelievable, and some parts are just outright odd. Firstly the Male stripper? all he seems to say is "It's Like" and "Do you know what I mean" with the odd other word thrown in to mix things up a little, and as for what the Homicide detective interviewed for this book comes out with????? I hope he wasnt paid for the interview because I could have just repeated what the witness says and state the clear obvious myself for a for a lot less. surely as a 15 year homicide detective he could have some input other than repeating the witness's words? all this makes believing a lot of this seem hard to do, There seems to be a lot of detail when mentioning all the things already known but when it comes to the parts that the Author and his investigative team discovered that apparently is all new info for this book the details seems to get sketchy and seems more rambling, I'm sure as an author he could have taken out all the "It's like" and " you know what I mean" from the witnesses words and still made the story interesting yet true, Its still an interesting listen, but certainly not something I'd Re-Listen too,

I'm not sure what parts to believe

The performance and recording is on the high school level at best. The recording engineer maybe should look for another job, seriously. I tried hard to concentrate on the text, but the guy who was reading was horrible. On top of this, the volume of the voice jump irregularly from low to high, from quiet to loud. Horrible experience

I strongly not recommend this particular piece.

I can’t believe that someone could as for money for this
