These lawyers were bugging to even think this would work but I guess they really had nothing to lose. Aaron Hernandez’s lawyers attempted to have the murder charges against their client dropped regarding the death of Odin Lloyd. Hernandez’s lawyers argued that prosecutors hadn’t shown probable cause to sustain the murder charge against Hernandez in the death of Odin Lloyd and hadn’t presented any evidence or motive for the slaying. There actually is quite a bit of evidence against the former Patriots star and the judge was not having that.

A judge has rejected a motion by lawyers for Aaron Hernandez to dismiss charges stemming from the 2013 slaying of a Boston man whose body was found near the former New England Patriots player’s home. The Bristol Superior Court judge said in her ruling Thursday that probable cause, and a defendant’s guilt, can be established by circumstantial evidence, and prosecutors don’t need to prove a motive to secure a murder conviction.

He is still being held without bail and his trial is schedule to start January 9th, 2015. The media coverage on the trial once it starts will be insane.
