Apparently prison officials believe Aaron Hernandez is currently a threat to himself and have placed him on suicide watch at MCI Cedar Junction in Massachusetts where he will stay until he is transferred to his permanent prison. Earlier this week as you know, Hernandez was found guilty on all counts in the death of Odin Lloyd, including 1st degree murder which comes with a life sentence with no parole. Someone who has fallen so far is more likely to contemplate taking their own life rather than facing it in prison but officials are on top of it with Hernandez.

We’re told he has been isolated from the general inmate population — not only for his own protection (since he’s a high profile inmate), but so officials can evaluate him … and determine where he will stay at the prison.
As far as the suicide watch goes, we’re told it’s not that uncommon for someone who just got sentenced to life behind bars. Unclear how long Aaron will stay on suicide watch.
