Aaron Hernandez girlfriend Shayanna Jenkins. New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez is led out of the North Attleborough police station after being arrested June 26, 2013. Hernandez, a 23-year-old rising football star with the New England Patriots, was arrested by police in a murder investigation and fired by the team on Wednesday, another blot on the National Football League's tightly protected image. "

Aaron Hernandez is being accused of murdering 27-year-old Odin Lloyd and left in the fallout is his girlfriend and the mother of his child in Shayanna Jenkins, who is now back home with their eight-month old baby now that he is locked up.

Hernandez was arrested on Wednesday and arraigned in Attleboro Court and Jenkins left in tears as he was denied bail and place under arrest and brought to Bristol correctional. While his lawyers will try to appeal the bail, it is likely that he will remain in jail and now Jenkins must figure out what is next for her as well. The two met in high school and she is directly connected to the case, as he sister was dating the victim Odin Lloyd.

Reports say that she at one point was talking to the police about the case after the arrest of Hernandez, but she soon stopped cooperating. She is not considered to be a suspect in the crime and the two originally met and graduated from Bristol Central High School together and she is now 24-years-old. The two were set to be married and they could possibly still do that, as it could help if she is asked to testify and that would bar her from doing so if she wants.

The two have a child together and after Hernandez became a father and got his $40 million contract, he said that he would try to do the right things. Clearly that did not work out. The two lived together at the home that was searched by police and now she may face the idea that Hernandez will be in jail for life. Her sister was dating Lloyd and Hernandez is accused of setting up his execution style murder. Hernandez is facing murder and gun charges and could face a trial next year.

The tight end gained nearly 2,000 yards with 175 catches and 18 touchdowns over his three year career and the Patriots envisioned him playing alongside Rob Gronkowski for many years. Now he is without a team or his freedom and depending on how the case goers, he could remain in jail until the trial.
