how do investors know about the conversation in the car? ortiz' sources say squeals during questioning. a string of security cameras at an industrial park pick up the altima as it is headed toward a secluded area. it's 3:23 and lloyd sends his sister the final text, he's with nfl adding just so you know. between 3:23 and 3:27, workers nearby tell police they hear gunshots. hernandez' home is only a half mile from the murder scene. at 3:29 a camera shows an altima pulling up in hernandez' driveway. only three people get out. odin lloyd is one of them. >> the defendant goes walking towards the house.

as aaron hernandez adjusts to life behind bars, charged with murder, yet another accusation of gun violence makes headlines. four months before oden lloyd is gunned down, the football player is at tootsies strip club in miami. a law enforcement source says hernandez drops about 10 grand that night. one of the men he's with, alexander bradley, prosecutors describe him as hernandez' former right-hand man. by morning, bradley is shot in the face, dumped out of a vehicle, and left for dead. still wearing his now blood soaked vip wristband from the club.

it happened here, an industrial park 65 miles north of the strip club in miami. it's 7:00 a.m. two men who work in that building hear a gunshot and tell police they rush outside and find the body of a bloody man lying in a fatal position just about here, according to a police report. one of the men asks the victim who shot you? bradley tells them he doesn't know. police retrieve this bullet fragment from his head, but bradley won't give them any details. >> when the police investigated this incident, alexander bradley didn't put the finger at hernandez. >> that changes when bradley sues claiming aaron hernandez cost him his right eye. bradley later tells prosecutors he was shot after hernandez felt disrespected during an argument over a missing cell phone. after bradley is shot,

prosecutors say hernandez gets a new right hand man, earnest wallace. >> this defendant is more commonly known by his nickname which is hobo. >> wallace has a long criminal history. he sells and uses drugs, including angel dust or pcp. he's not the on one. court documents show wallace eastside kick carlos ortiz admits he's regularly abusing pcp, alcohol and thc, pot. sources tell cnn aaron hernandez also smoked a lot of pot, one calling it a boat load. prosecutors say the tight end would give oden lloyd money to buy marijuana. this picture, a stack of blunts is said to be made of marijuana said to be supplied by hernandez.

sources tell cnn aaron hernandez also used angel dust and that could have made him paranoid. one says he felt he was a target, that people were coming after him. >> the combination of those drugs, depending on the long-term use of the drugs and the amount of drugs could cause someone to become violent, could cause someone to become very paranoid, could cause someone to overreact to a situation, appear to be more impulsive. >> that kind of behavior doesn't describe the aaron hernandez many remember growing up in connecticut where his family was celebrated as a local sports dynasty. >> i don't think there was another family that was more familiar in bristol. aaron was our golden boy. he had the family traits, his father and uncle were standout

athletes. >> his older bother dj was a sports hero, too. bob montgomery covers high school sports for the bristol press. >> aaron did track in audition to football he also did basketball. he was described in any sport he played as a man playing with children. >> he was just kind of goofy and fun. >> kind of had a baby face and all the teachers loved him. >> brad mcmillan and andrew played basketball with aaron beginning in middle school. >> he was twice the size of me. we were the same height but he was more athletic obviously. he practiced all the time. >> practiced because his father dennis pushed him, constantly. >> his father was pretty strict. i mean, he told me his father used to make him shoot 500 shots before he could play with friends. his dad clearly kept him anchored. i saw a closeness with them that i had never seen before.

there was something about dennis and aaron, the way they intertwined. it was just magic in my eyes. >> but in a heart beat, that closeness is gone. >> i was sitting in math class with another teammate, phone rang, teacher went to go pick up the phone and then she said you need to go up to the coach's room. coach walks in and says, dennis has passed away. >> dennis hernandez, aaron's father dies after routine hernia surgery. it hit 16-year-old aaron hard. >> he count stop the tears. >> felt uncomfortable to see him so hurt. i felt bad for him. >> that father son relationship comes up in conversations with the sheriff thomas hudson who runs the jail where hernandez is being jailed.

>> clearly at 16-year-olds old losing your father would be easy to follow into the lifestyle of following people that don't help you make the best choices. >> one choice he makes is to tattoo some of his dad's advice on his arms. >> this is a quote my father always used to give me, if it is to be, it is up to me. saying whatever i want my life to be is up to me to make it out that way. >> when it comes time to his his college pick, not even his brother dj can get him to join where their dad played, the university of connecticut. >> at first, he wouldn't talk to me but there are days saying it's our dream to play together, come on, please. >> but aaron stands firm believing his football career will sore in gator country. coming up, a promising college career overshadows by trouble off the field. et a hotel.

with the man who kept him grounded now gone, aaron hernandez takes a pass on his father's school, the university of connecticut cutting his high school senior year in half, he heads to the university of

florida. >> then i was kind of just bombed that he wasn't going to be on our basketball team. >> in january 2007, he joins the gators and star quarterback tim tebow. by april, still long before the gator's season opener, there is trouble off the field. the rookie teen loses his cool at this popular off campus restaurant. there is an argument between aaron hernandez and the manager over a bill. tim tebow tries to calm things down and settle the check, but according to this police report, it all ends with aaron hernandez sucker punching the manager on the left side of his head bursting an eardrum. the manager later tells police university of florida coaches and lawyers have contacted him, and they are working on an agreement. a university spokesman says they are not aware of any settlement.

five months later in september, there is more trouble. this time a shooting near the university. it begins with young men snatching gold neck chains at a local club. there is an argument in the parking lot across the street. police report several uf football players are involved, including hernandez. >> i know hernandez was there. there was trouble. >> there was arguing loud. >> the suspected chain snatchers get into this man's car. his name is corey and doesn't want his face shown for fear of retribution. can you point out roughly where it was? moments after leaving the club, someone fires into corey's crown vic hitting him in the head. >> can you tell me and show me where is it that that bullet went? it came right about there? >> i can't imagine what he would

have felt that night. >> corey's aunt stephanie remembers he nearly died. >> his heart stopped a couple times. >> they had to take half of my skull to get the bullet out. i was in rehab and they helped me to walk again and talk again. >> police interview more than 20 people, and they try to question hernandez, but he's the on one who doesn't make a statement after invoking his right to counsel. at the time, his mother terry hernandez tells the orlando "sentinel" i know he was at the club but he never saw any shooting. it's still an open case, no one has ever been charged. both corey and his aunt stephanie have been trying to get to the truth for seven years. you've done a lot to try to get to the heart of what happened. what about going to the university of florida? >> i tried it. i was just told that they would

put the guys on curfew so that they could, i guess, less their activities in clubs and whatever. i would have like to seen more in depth questioning of those football players. >> citing privacy laws, the university of florida wouldn't discuss specifics how football players are disciplined. was he on a slippery slope? he was tearing up the field as a gator but some who knew him were worried, especially unsupervised away from the game. if you could keep him on one side, he would be fine one source put it, the problem was he couldn't stay away from the other side, adding it was a recipe for disaster. and it was a recipe that included marijuana. hernandez was suspended at least once for using the drug. it's an issue that follows him

when he enters the draft his junior year. >> teams spend a lot of money on background checks to be sure this is somebody who will enter the nfl and stay out of trouble. >> how far back do they go? >> if you done something in middle school, they will go back and find somebody that was around that time and ask them. >> try to head off trouble before the draft, hernandez goes on the offensive writing a letter to the patriot's director of personnel. if you draft me as a member of the new england patriots he wrote, i will willfully submit to a bi weekly drug test throughout my rookie season. >> prior to the draft, hernandez was a player that could be a first-round pick and no later than a second round pick. >> with another selection, they go aaron hernandez. >> he ends up the 113th pick, passed over until the fourth round.

>> i have to believe that him following so far is a story of marijuana. there were questions raised in background checks about him that cased teams to say we'll downgrade him on our draft board. >> but during his first year with the patriots, he proves himself. >> there were questions that oh, he's too young to be in the league, he's not going to get belichick's system. he was able to debunk those by having a solid season. >> by the end of his second season, hernandez has star power. i thinking a five-year $40 million extension. >> you can't come here and act reckless and do your own stuff. i might have acted the way i want to act but you get changed by bill belichick's way. >> what no one knew at the time one month before he signs that deal, the football player parties at a boston club. that night, two young men are shot and killed after leaving that same club by a man driving a silver suv. is there a connection?

it's a silver suv but in the life of aaron hernandez, it's much more. while searching his cousin's home for clues at odin lloyd's murder, police stumble on a toyota 4 runner. it's in a garage and it belongs to a leasing company who loaned it to the patriot tight end in exchange for promotional work. for the past year, boston police have been looking for an suv linked to an unsolved double-murder. this appears to be it. how difficult has this loss been for you, sir, as a father? son daniel was killed in the drive-by shooting outside a boston nightclub with his friend

on july 16th, 2012. witnesses say two men in a silver suv with rhode island plates, pulls alongside the car, shots are fired. what do you miss the most about him? >> translator: we would hang out like brothers his father tells me. his son daniel was a police officer in cape verde and wanted to do the same work in the u.s. he spoke three languages and worked as a tour guide in cape verde. he had only been in the u.s. for six months. how much do you miss him? >> translator: losing a son his father says is like losing a hand. >> two grieving fathers searching for answers.

finding that suv and other tips leads to a stunning discovery. aaron hernandez scene on security video, police say, with another man, following him into that nightclub and stalking them in a silver suv after they leave. almost a year after he's charged with odin lloyd's murder. >> aaron hernandez, please rise. >> aaron hernandez is indicted for the murders of those two young men. >> how do you plead to this indictment? >> not guilty. >> he loaded outside the suv with a loaded resolve. the defendant fired five rounds from a .38 caliber into the victim's car. >> but why? >> daniel while dancing nearby accidentally bumped into the defendant causing the defendant's drink to partially spill.

>> the motive prosecutors say is nothing more than a spilled drink by a complete stranger. >> the defendant told his friend that he had deliberately bumped him and was quote trying him. >> court documents identify the friend with hernandez that night as alexander bradley, the same alexander bradley who says hernandez later shot out his right eye because the football player felt disrespected during an argument over a cell phone. all leading to a key question, do those two violent acts suggest a dangerous pattern of behavior driven by paranoia? cnn has learned prosecutors believe that behavior is what led to odin lloyd's murder. a source with knowledge of the investigation says the night they were at this club, hernandez gets angry when he sees lloyd talking with two men.

and angry again later at hernandez' apartment when lloyd gets a look at guns and ammo kept there. it's unclear exactly what ticks him off that night. the source will only say it's as trivial as that spilled drink allegedly behind the double-murder. >> motive does not have to be proven. >> he's a former massachusetts district attorney and federal prosecutor. >> juries like motive. juries want to know why someone did something, especially when they have done something alleged to be as heinous as this was. >> a motive no matter how trivial would make the state's case stronger. prosecutors have already bolstered the case by upgrading the charges against ortiz and wallace to murder. >> how do you plead? >> not guilty.

>> not guilty. >> charging of carlos ortiz and earnest wallace for murder really signals there will be a joint venture murder prosecution where anyone who actively participates in the murder can be held guilty for the murder. >> that would mean hernandez could be convicted of murder, even if prosecutors can't prove he fired the gun, but none of this makes the case rock solid. it still has holes. >> there remains no murder weapon. >> conviction without a gun is more difficult. still ahead, even a jail cell can't keep aaron hernandez from getting into more trouble. at od, whatever business you're in, that's the business we're in

>> at every pretrial hearing, she is surrounded by family, hangs on every word. >> mr. hernandez's right to fair trial. >> but the justice she seeks is still a long way off. a trial date is pencilled in for october, but it might start much later. >> one plausible timetable is that the aaron hernandez case for the murder of odin lloyd goes to trial some time in the summer or spring of 2015. >> the football star spends his days waiting alone in a 7 by 10-foot cell. trying to keep him in line -- >> i've talked to him at length there is a warmth within this person. >> what went wrong? >> learned behaviors and the environment that people grow up have an incredible influence on who we become. >> sheriff thomas hodgson believes in modifying behavior behind bars.

he says inmate number 174954 is reading the bible. and another book he suggested. >> i got him reading "tuesdays with morrie." >> it examines how to create a centered, meaningful life. >> he was clearly moved by the book. he called his mother and told her she needs to read. >> the sheriff tells hernandez he needs to find his anchor by turning to his childhood anchor, his late dad. >> you ever be able to get back to the place you feel comfortable and safe in. and that's only if you go back and talk to your father. go back to your cell and talk to your father. >> what did he think about that advice? >> what i seen every so offer often, hey, did you do what i asked you? no, but i'm getting there. i think at this point he's got a picture that he didn't have

before, his dad's picture. >> a photograph of his late father in his cell. >> it's not as bad now that i'm not playing. >> retired patriot running back faulk hasn't given up on his ex-team mate. >> i want to tell him he has somebody on his side that is praying for him. >> prosecutors are saying that he orchestrated the execution of someone. >> you're not going to make me believe that he is a monster because you used those type of words. >> not even two more murder charges in the so-called spilled drink case have changed faulk's opinion of the player he knew. >> i get the question all the time you. think your boy did it? no, i don't want him to have done it, no. so if you want me to say no, no, i don't think he did. at the same time, anybody can be pushed to do something drastic like that, if they push you to that point. >> even behind bar, trouble continues to follow faulk's former teammate. after trash talk with another inmate, that man's lawyer says

hernandez got some punches in. it got physical, didn't it? >> no question it was a physical altercation, absolutely. >> hernandez is now charged with assault in that fight. that's on top of the three murder charges, a lawsuit claiming hernandez shot a friend in the face, three civil suits from the families of his alleged victims, and according to sources, a federal gun trafficking investigation. as for the odin lloyd case -- >> i think the odds are likely that aaron hernandez will be convicted. do i believe that it's a slam-dunk? no. >> the ex-patriots lawyers contend the circumstantial evidence so far is full of gaps. >> there is certainly a lot of what i would call smoke there is no doubt about it. but that's not probable cause that he committed murder. and you can't just throw a bunch
