On Tuesday, October 22nd, Jonathan Hernandez, the brother of former NFL star Aaron Hernandez, was arrested at ESPN’s Bristol, Connecticut offices. According to police, Jonathan was arrested after a physical altercation with an ESPN employee.
The incident began when Jonathan arrived at the ESPN offices to discuss a documentary about his brother. Aaron Hernandez was a former tight end for the New England Patriots who was convicted of murder in 2015. Jonathan had been working on a documentary about his brother’s life and wanted to discuss it with ESPN.
When Jonathan arrived at the offices, he became involved in a heated argument with an ESPN employee. The argument quickly escalated and Jonathan allegedly threw a punch at the employee. Police were called to the scene and Jonathan was arrested for assault. He was later released on $2,500 bond.
This incident is just the latest in a string of legal troubles for the Hernandez family. Aaron Hernandez was convicted of murder in 2015 and sentenced to life in prison without parole. His death in 2017 was ruled a suicide. Jonathan has had several run-ins with the law in recent years, including a DUI arrest in 2017.
The incident at ESPN is a reminder of the tragic story of the Hernandez family. Aaron Hernandez’s life was cut short by his own actions, and his brother Jonathan is now facing legal trouble for his own actions. It is a sad story that serves as a cautionary tale about the consequences of making bad decisions.
