Recently, Jonathan Hernandez, the brother of former NFL star Aaron Hernandez, was charged with a federal offense for allegedly sending threatening messages. Jonathan, who is 25 years old, was arrested in Connecticut on April 3rd and charged with one count of cyberstalking.
According to the criminal complaint, Jonathan allegedly sent threatening messages to an unnamed victim in Florida between October 2019 and February 2020. The messages were sent through a variety of platforms, including text messages, emails, and social media. The messages were described as “threatening, harassing and intimidating” and included threats of physical harm.
This is not the first time Jonathan has been in trouble with the law. In 2017, he was arrested for disorderly conduct and interfering with an officer. He was also arrested in 2018 on charges of violating a protective order.
Jonathan’s brother, Aaron Hernandez, was a former tight end for the New England Patriots. Aaron was convicted of murder in 2015 and sentenced to life in prison. He committed suicide in 2017 while still in prison.
Jonathan’s case is still ongoing and it remains to be seen what the outcome will be. If convicted, he could face up to five years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000. It is important to remember that everyone is innocent until proven guilty and Jonathan has not yet been convicted of any crime.
This case serves as a reminder that cyberstalking is a serious crime and should not be taken lightly. It is important to remember that threatening messages can have serious consequences and can lead to criminal charges.
