According to sources, the tests show there were no trace of “K2” or synthetic marijuana or any illegal drugs in Hernandez’s system at the time of his death on April 19.
State officials were looking into whether Hernandez used synthetic drugs in the hours before he hanged himself in his cell at Souza Baranowski Correctional Center in Shirley.
The prison was in lock down last week as correction officers searched for drugs and other contraband following Hernandez's suicide.
