NFL Aaron Hernandez’s Brother Arrested for Allegedly Planning School Shootings
Late Patriots Tight End’s Brother Under Strict Observation

Dennis “D.J.” Hernandez, older brother to the late New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez, has been arrested under serious allegations of planning school shootings at UConn and Brown University.
Erratic Behavior and Sinister Messages
Bristol Police Department documents detail the troubling events leading to D.J. Hernandez’s arrest. Concerns arose when several individuals reported his erratic behavior and alarming text messages, one of which hinted at a sinister plan in the works. The message read, “we’re taking lives if s*** isn’t paid up. It’s been years in planning just taking notes, names, and locations.”
Warned To Be “On Foot and Armed”
Upon receiving this concerning information, police approached Hernandez’s residence on July 19, attempting to detain him. However, D.J. responded with a chilling warning, claiming to be “on foot, armed,” and threatening to harm the officers. Despite numerous commands from the police, he ignored them and reportedly moved closer, hands outstretched. The situation became intense as he yelled, “shoot me!” In response, the police had to use a taser to subdue him, eventually taking him into custody.
Aaron Hernandez’s Brother Arrested in Previous Encounters with the Law
This is not the first time D.J. Hernandez has faced legal trouble. Earlier this year, he was arrested for allegedly throwing a brick at ESPN’s headquarters, expressing his frustration with media coverage and its impact on his family. His recent behavior and actions have raised serious concerns about his mental health and the potential danger he poses.
D.J. Hernandez is now facing charges of threatening and breach of peace. He is being held on a $250,000 bond and is set to appear in court next week. The seriousness of the alleged threats and his repeated encounters with the law have left many deeply concerned about the safety of those around him.
The authorities are taking this matter seriously and will be closely monitoring D.J. Hernandez’s upcoming court appearance.
Who Was Aaron Hernandez?
The infamous tight end for the New England Patriots, bearer of amazing NFL stats, a millionaire contract and a changemaker in NFL standings, had been in problems with the law, having been arrested for causing the death of a friend and two non-acquaintances. With rumors of heavy usage of the synthetic marihuana drug K2 and a report questioning his sexuality surrounding his suicide in jail, the cause of his death remains a mystery to this day.
