Aaron Hernandez's Brother Faces New Charges amid Threat Concerns, UConn & Brown Visits

"Brother of Aaron Hernandez arrested after school shooting threat worries"

Dennis Hernandez, the older brother of the late Aaron Hernandez, former New England Patriots tight end, has been arrested after a woman close to him expressed concerns about his potential involvement in a school shooting. The arrest occurred on July 18 in Bristol, Connecticut, when police responded to a call and found Hernandez threatening to kill the officers. He was subsequently apprehended after being shocked with a stun gun.

Dennis Hernandez, also known as DJ during his time as a football player at UConn, made alarming statements while being transported to the hospital. According to the police report, he claimed that he intended to kill anyone who had profited from his younger brother's story. The police had initially gone to Hernandez's residence after receiving information from two women who had noticed his deteriorating mental state.

In March, Hernandez was arrested for throwing a bag containing a brick and a note onto ESPN's property in Bristol. He failed to appear in court on July 7, and one of the women informed the police that he had instead visited UConn's campus in Storrs and Brown University's campus in Providence on that day. She suspected that Hernandez was planning a school shooting. UConn police confirmed that a vehicle associated with Hernandez was present on campus.

Another woman disclosed that Hernandez had made threatening remarks, stating that he had "a bullet for everyone." He also posted threats on social media, including a message that read, "Will I kill? Absolutely." In a text message to one of the women, he expressed anger towards UConn coaches and university officials, warning that he planned to "take down everything" and that it was now "others peoples turn." Hernandez's recent residence was in Florida, although he grew up in Bristol.

UConn stated that, at the time of the incident, they had determined there was no immediate threat to the school. They promptly took action upon learning of the situation and Hernandez's arrest followed. Brown University, where Hernandez had served as a quarterbacks coach, confirmed that he had not returned to campus in recent weeks.

Dennis Hernandez is scheduled to appear in court on August 1, facing charges of threatening, breach of peace, and failure to appear in court. He is currently being held on $250,000 bail. Aaron Hernandez, his younger brother, committed suicide in 2017 while serving a murder sentence.
