When Aaron Hernández was found dead in his cell on April 19, authorities found letters with the last words that the former New England Patriots football player dedicated to those closest to him.

The content of the notes, which are expected to shed some light on what led him to commit suicide, has been a mystery until this Friday. Until now it is known that the prisoner had inappropriate and violent behavior in the days before his death.

“You have always been my soulmate and I want you to live life and I know that I will always be with you. I told you what would come indirectly! I love you so much and I know you are an angel - eternally!”Reads the letter he left for his girlfriend, Shayanna Jenkins, according to a copy released by the authorities.

“We split in two to come to change the world! Your characteristics are those of a true angel and the definition of the love of God. Tell my story completely, but never think anything besides how much I love you. These were the Supreme, the plan of the Almighty, not mine."

The player assures that what he is going to do is a "plan of the Almighty" and reiterates that he loves her. "Let [strikethrough] know how much I love her. Take care of [crossed out] and [eject] for me - those are my boys."

In brackets, Hernández wrote "you're rich," and underlined both words, before ending the note with a song title: "I knew I loved you" by Savage Garden.

Hernandez, 27, hanged himself in his cell five days after being acquitted of the double murder charges for the deaths of two men outside a Boston nightclub in 2012. The jury found him not guilty of murder, but he convicted of one count of possessing a weapon without a license.

Despite that acquittal, Hernández was still serving a life sentence for the murder of Odin Lloyd, the boyfriend of his fiancee's sister.

With his death, some experts point out that his sentence could be annulled - a measure that prosecutors dispute - which opens the possibility that the Patriots have to pay their heirs almost $ 6 million in wages and bonuses that they stopped paying after his arrest. in 2013.
