That's true. It might be the first high profile case in a while where we don't see the defendant pandering for donations.
Here's a good recap of the arraignment today.
Members of Lloyd's family sat in the courtroom, hugging one another, as McCauley said he had evidence that, at the very least, would show that Hernandez orchestrated the murder. Halfway through, two members of the family had to leave the room as they became overwhelmed with emotion.
McCauley explained that Hernandez first met Lloyd when he began dating the sister of Hernandez's fiancé. The two went to Rumor, a Boston nightclub, on June 14, where Lloyd apparently upset Hernandez by talking to the wrong people.
Two nights later, Hernandez summoned two of his friends from Connecticut via a series of text messages, asking them to hurry up. After their arrival, a surveillance camera, 14 of which were in Hernandez's home, showed the football player holding a .45-caliber pistol, the weapon that is believed to have killed Lloyd.
Hernandez is then alleged to have told someone inside the home that he couldn't trust anyone anymore and the three men left in a rented silver Nissan Altima.
The three men then picked up Lloyd at his home around 2:30 a.m. and drove him back to Attleboro. The discussion in the car worried Lloyd and he texted his sister to make sure she saw who picked him up.
"Did you see who I am with?" Lloyd asked at 3:07 a.m.
"Who?" Lloyd's sister asked 12 minutes later.
"NFL," Lloyd said at 3:19, four minutes later adding, "Just so you know."
As Lloyd sent his final text, the car pulled down a gravel road and traveled behind an industrial building, out of view of cameras. McCauley said it was there where five shots were fired into Lloyd's body. He was hit twice, once in the arm, before two fatal shots were fired into his chest.
Prosecutors did not say who shot Lloyd. The other two men were not identified.
Minutes later, the Altima emerged from the industrial lot and traveled back to Hernandez's home.
McCauley said Hernandez's security footage shows him back at his home, holding a .45-caliber pistol, after the death. Shortly after, the cameras were shut off.
McCauley said that Hernandez's finance, Shayanna Jenkins, was initially cooperating with investigators until Hernandez ordered her to stop talking.
