Aaron Hernandez who is already serving a life sentence for the murder of Odin Lloyd was in court Tuesday for a pretrial hearing ahead of another double murder trial. The prosecution provided some new information that will be used in an attempt to convict him.
Hernandez is charged with killing 29-year-old Daniel de Abreu and 28-year-old Safiro Furtado in a 2012 drive-by shooting in Boston. He has pleaded not guilty but the prosecution claims Hernandez has used his many tattoos to confess to some murders he may have committed.

Hernandez’ many tattoos have been examined in the past by prison officials to determine if he is affiliated with gangs.
