Former NFL player Aaron Hernandez’s attorney, Jose Baez, previously shared parts of the convicted murderer’s suicide notes that’ll be turned into a book. Now, according to CNN, Baez said the former New England Patriots player, who committed suicide in 2017 after being sentenced to life in prison, wanted to get in touch with a few rappers he states helped him through rough patches. Those artists include Rick Ross, Meek Mill, Kevin Gates, The Game, and JAY-Z. According to BET, Baez never touched base with those figures while Hernandez was still alive.
