Aaron Hernandez Court Live Stream: Watch Online Video Pretrial Hearing Fall River Courtroom At 2 p.m.

Oct 09, 2013 01:36 PM EDT

Fall River Superior Court will once again be the setting for former New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez, as he will be back in Bristol County (Mass.) Superior Court around 2 p.m. for a pretrial hearing that comes a little over a month after he was arraigned on murder charges for the death of Odin Lloyd.

Hernandez is set to be in court at 2 pm for the pretrial hearing and apart from the motion issues, the court date may also deal with the lead up to a trial date as well as the possibility of getting bail. Hernandez was previously denied bail twice during the summer and he has been held in custody since being arrested. Hernandez is not the only one facing charges related to the case, as two arrested accomplices in Ernest Wallace and Carlos Ortiz face charges, as does Hernandez' cousin Tanya Singleton and his fiancé Shayanna Jenkins.

Hernandez is facing first degree murder charges in the case and on Wednesday the judge will be deciding on two motions in the case, including one about the extension of a gag order on lawyers from making comments about the case to the media as well as a motion about discovery evidence from the prosecution for the defense team. The lawyers for Hernandez have argued that the case against their client is circumstantial and that the evidence does not warrant a conviction.

Hernandez was arrested soon after the body was discovered and the nigh in question has been documented by text messages between the two, including Lloyd texting his sister after joining Hernandez, letting her know who he was with. Some reports have said that evidence shows that Lloyd fought back before being killed and other reports, including in a Rolling Stone profile, said that Hernandez was a heavy user of drugs during the time of the shooting and before that as well.

Lawyers for the state in arguing against bail painted Hernandez as the orchestrator of the shooting and said that it stemmed from a dispute that Hernandez and Odin Lloyd had in a nightclub before the killing. Reports describe Hernandez as agitated with Lloyd for talking to the wrong people and that was the incident that led to the shooting. Hernandez was arrested on evidence using text messages, video surveillance and other evidence from the crime scene and he was arrested the week after the body was found in an industrial park less than a mile from his home in North Attleboro.

The New England Patriots released Hernandez on the same day that he was arrested in spite of giving him a $40 million contract extension that year and now he is facing life in prison for the charges. Police found a number of guns and ammunition in his home as well as in a flop house he was renting as well and while they have not found the murder weapon, in the state of Massachusetts that doesn't mean he can't be convicted of first degree murder.
