NFL champs to visit Trump hours after ex-player's death The Super Bowl-champion New England Patriots are visiting the White House to accept congratulations from President Donald Trump for another NFL title. Trump's welcome to the team later Wednesday is coming hours after the news from Massachusetts prisons officials that ex-Patriot tight end Aaron Hernandez hanged himself in his prison cell.

Governor Charlie Baker on Thursday said he has confidence in the state corrections department as it looks to find out what went wrong before the apparent prison suicide of former New England Patriots star Aaron Hernandez.

“Our response is going to be primarily to investigate to make sure that everybody understands exactly what happened and when, and why,” Baker told reporters.

He said he did not believe anybody has been disciplined in the wake of Hernandez’s Wednesday suicide, but the investigation continues.

With death, Aaron Hernandez will no longer be convicted murderer

With death, Aaron Hernandez will no longer be convicted murderer Under Massachusetts law, former New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez will no longer be a convicted murderer due to his suicide.So as a result of his suicide, the former New England Patriots tight end will no longer be a convicted murderer.

Baker wants to know ‘ what happened and why ’ in Hernandez death . “Anytime anybody kills themselves in a prison, something clearly went wrong,” the governor said.

We may never know why Hernandez killed himself, but I believe this: In the end, he wanted to be the person he used to be, but he knew he could no longer live that person’s life.

“Look, any time anybody kills themselves in a prison, something clearly went wrong,” the governor said. He added that he supports the leadership of the state Department of Correction.

Massachusetts has made strides in recent decades to improve mental health care and deter suicides in prison, but the rate of self-inflicted inmate deaths remains among the highest in the country.

“People have made progress on this issue,” Baker said. “But obviously, one is too many and we’ll investigate this thoroughly and make whatever adjustments we need to.”

He said he would not make decisions based on the early details and rumors surrounding the incident.

“I’m not going to draw any conclusions about this until the investigation is finished,” Baker said.

Hernandez, 27, was found hanging from a bedsheet by a corrections officer around 3:05 a.m. Wednesday in his cell at the Souza-Baranowski Correctional Center in Shirley. Hernandez was serving a life sentence without parole for murder.

Newspaper confuses Keith Hernandez for Aaron in headline .
Don’t worry, folks. Keith Hernandez is alive and well contrary to what one newspaper would have you believe. According to Deadspin, The Brandon Sun in Canada reported on the death of Aaron Hernandez on Wednesday and ran an Associated Press version of the story. They decided to create their own headline but screwed up and wrote “Keith Hernandez.”Oops. Proofread folks, take the extra two minutes pic.twitter.com/7dIs7iGPrE— Mike Harris (@SIcomMike) April 20, 2017Keith Hernandez, of course, is the former Mets MVP first baseman, not the former Patriots tight end who was in prison for murder.
