Aaron Hernandez of NE Patriots - Charged with Murder
THE DRAMA CONTINUES...

Testimony was delayed early this week because Judge Garsh had to address a rogue juror. The female juror lied during jury screening about the number of Patriots games she had attended. She also told people shortly after Hernandez was arrested that she wanted to be on the jury. She got booted.

So, Shaneah Jenkins is back on the stand. She seems genuinely torn up about the murder of her boyfriend Odin Lloyd. She testified that she and her sister Shayanna had been very close. I don't know if they still are -- doubt it.

Shaneah testified that she got a call from police telling her that Odin was dead. She went to his home to be with his family. Then she went to be with her sister Shayanna at the home she shares with Aaron Hernandez.

Shaneah didn't see Hernandez at first, but an hour or so later saw him in the dining room where Hernandez, she testified, put his arm around her and said, "I've been through this death thing before. It gets easier." At some point Hernandez left, she testified.

Shayanna was then fielding phone calls and responding with one-word answers, Shaneah Jenkins testified. At one point, Shaneah testified, Shayanna slipped down to the basement with a black plastic bag in her hand.

Moments later, Shaneah looked out a window and saw her sister in the backyard walking toward the house. Shortly thereafter, Shayanna came up the stairs, returned to the living room and asked to borrow Shaneah's car, something she'd never done before, because she needed to go to the bank. Thirty minutes later, Shayanna returned.

In compelling yet circumstantial testimony Tuesday, the prosecution attempted to paint the jury a picture of a cover-up. No murder weapon has been discovered since Odin Lloyd was found dead of multiple gunshot wounds the morning of June 17, 2013. The prosecution's theory is that the murder weapon was discarded by Shayanna Jenkins.

The state presented video footage of Hernandez holding a gun inside his home minutes after Lloyd was murdered, but when police inspected the home a day later no gun was found.

The inference in Tuesday's testimony is that Shayanna Jenkins retrieved the gun from the basement, walked it outside without her sister seeing her do so, then used her sister's car to dispose of it.

Shayanna Jenkins has been charged with perjury, with prosecutors alleging that she destroyed evidence. According to court documents, Shayanna Jenkins received on June 18 a cryptic text message from Hernandez that read: "Go back in back of the screen in movie room when u get home an there is a box…jus in case u were looking for it!!! Member how you ruined the big tv Imao WAS JUST THINKIN bout that lol wink wink love u TTYL….K”
