The ex-New England Patriot, who hanged himself in his cell last month, wrote the letters to staff at the Souza-Baranowski Correctional Center where he was serving a life sentence for murder. The Boston Globe was the first to report on the letters, which were authenticated by state officials.
“I’m trying to start my life bid where I’m going to end up in the long run for the long run which is P2,” Hernandez wrote in one letter to the prison’s security staff dated June 12, 2015.
“So, please make this happen and I even prefer to move in with (redacted); me and him are very close and have been since the streets and that’s FACT, not bulls--t. He’s my heart and like a real brother to me that’s why I want and am requesting to go upstairs and live with him.”
