police say the shell came from the same gun that fired the rounds at the murder scene. and they say tire impressions taken near the body match the kind of tires on the altima. hernandez's attorneys won't comment on the case, and all parties are muzzled by a gag order. for family and friends of odin lloyd, knowing some details helps, but they don't answer this question. >> why? that's the biggest question. why? i'm randy and i quit smoking with chantix. as a police officer, i've helped many people in the last 23 years. but i needed help in quitting smoking. along with support, chantix (varenicline) is proven to help people quit smoking. chantix reduced the urge for me to smoke. it actually caught me by surprise. some people had changes in behavior, thinking or mood, hostility, agitation,

as aaron hernandez adjusts to life behind bars, charged with murder, yet another accusation of gun violence makes headlines. four months before odin lloyd is gunned down, the football player is at tootsie's 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's 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 about 65 miles north of tootsie's 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 fetal 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 point the finger at hernandez. >> that changes when bradley sues, claiming that 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, ernest

wallace. >> this defendant is more commonly known by his nickname, which is hobo. >> wallace has a long criminal history. prosecutors say he sells and uses drugs, including the hallucinogen angel dust or pcp. he's not the only one. court documents show wallace's sidekick, 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 odin lloyd money to buy him marijuana. cnn obtained his photograph of a stack of blunts. a source says it was made with 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 bristol, 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 brother, dj, was a sports hero, too.

and aaron, the way they intertwined. it was just magic, in my eyes. >> but in a heartbeat, 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, his anchor, dies after routine hernia surgery. it hit 16-year-old aaron hard. >> he was just sad. he couldn't stop the tears. >> felt uncomfortable to see him so hurt. i felt bad for him. >> that father/son relationship comes up in conversations with sheriff thomgs hodgson who runs the jail where hernandez is being held.

>> clearly at 16-year-old, 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." basically saying what i want my life to be is up to me to make it that way. >> when it comes time to his his college pick, not even his brother, d.j., can get him to join where their dad played, the university of connecticut. >> at first, he wouldn't even 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 soar in gator country. coming up, a promising college career overshadowed by trouble off the field. quiet! mom has a headache! had a headache!

this time, a shooting near the university. it begins with young men snatching gold neck chains at a local club. there's 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 only 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, lessen their activities in clubs and

things of that nature. i would have liked to have seen some more in-depth questioning of those football players. >> citing privacy laws, the university of florida won't discuss specifics of how players are disciplined. was hernandez on a slippery slope? he was tearing up the field as a gator, but some who knew him were worried, especially when he was 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, hiring private investigators to be sure this is somebody who will enter the nfl and stay out of trouble. >> and 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. >> trying to head off trouble before the draft, hernandez goes on the offensive, writing a letter to the patriots' director of personnel. "if you draft me as a member of the new england patriots," he wrote, "i will willfully submit to a biweekly drug test throughout my rookie season." >> day three, round four. >> prior to the draft, aaron hernandez was projected as 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 falling so far is more than just a story about marijuana. there were questions raised in

background checks about him that caused 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, inking 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 wanted 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 in odin lloyd's murder, police stumble on a toyota 4runner. 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? ernesto abreu's son, dan yell was killed in the drive-by shooting outside a boston nightclub with his friend,

safiro furtado, on july 16th, 2012. witnesses say two men in a silver suv with rhode island plates pulls alongside abreu's car, shots are fired. what do you miss the most about him? "we would hang out like brothers, abreu's father tells me. abreu's father was a police officer in cape verde and daniel de abreu wanted to do the same work in the u.s. safuro furtado spoke three languages and worked as a tour guide in cape verde. he had only been in the u.s. for six months. "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 seen on security video, police say, with another man, following abreu and furtado 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. >> the defendant leaned out of the driver's side window of the suv with a loaded revolver in his hand, extended out. the defendant immediately fired at least five rounds from .38-caliber revolver into the victims' car. >> but why? >> daniel abreu, 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 mr. abreu 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's 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 under the law. >> jared leone is both 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 have been as heinous as this was. >> the defendant was the one -- >> a motive, no matter how trivial, would make the state's case stronger. prosecutors have already bolstered the case by upgrading the charges against co-defendants ortiz and wallace to murder. >> how do you plead? >> not guilty. >> not guilty. >> charging of carlos ortiz and ernest wallace for murder really signals that this 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. hey. i'm ted and this is rudy. say "hi" rudy.
