As April rolls along, the debauchery continues. ESPN broke this morning that former New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez was found dead in his prison cell. It’s reported that he committed suicide by hanging himself. This came a day after he was acquitted of his double murder after serving a life sentence for his 2013 murder of Odin Lloyd. The Massachusetts Department of Corrections released a statement saying:

On April 19, 2017, Aaron Hernandez was discovered hanged in his cell by corrections officers at the Souza Baranowski Correctional Center in Shirley, Massachusetts at approximately 3:05 a.m., lifesaving techniques were attempted on Mr. Hernandez and he was transported to UMASS Leominster where he was pronounced dead at 4:07 a.m. by a physician at the hospital. Mr. Hernandez was in a single cell in a general population housing unit. Mr. Hernandez hanged himself utilizing a bed sheet that he attached to his cell window. Mr. Hernandez also attempted to block his door from the inside by jamming the door with various items. The Massachusetts State Police are on scene and the investigation continues. Mr. Hernandez’s next of kin have been notified.

The New England Patriots, who are expected to visit the White House today, said that they will not be commenting on the incident today. Hernandez leaves behind a four-year old daughter, and a fiancé. Yahoo News reporter Shalise Manza Young released a part of the scouting report for Hernandez when he was drafted. It’s chilling, as it says:

Self-esteem is quite low; not well-adjusted emotionally, not happy, moods unpredictable, not stable, doesn’t take much to set him off, but not an especially jumpy guy.
