The year just started, and Netflix is already feeding our true crime obsession with the three-part series Killer Inside: The Mind of Aaron Hernandez. The show explores NFL player Aaron Hernandez's shocking downfall as he went from playing for the New England Patriots to being convicted of killing his friend Odin Lloyd in 2013. As the Netflix series highlights, the NFL star's case is intrinsically linked to that of his older cousin - but what happened to Tanya Singleton? Like Hernandez, who died by suicide in his prison cell on April 19, 2017, Singleton's story also ended in tragedy.
After Hernandez's father died when he was in high school, the young athlete bonded with his cousin.

Former New England Patriots player Aaron Hernandez was found guilty of first-degree murder on Wednesday. The jury deliberated for more than 35 hours across seven days, and he faces life imprisonment without the possibility of parole. According to CNN, Hernandez appeared "upset but calm," at one point glancing at his mom and fiancée, who were weeping. The former football star was on trial for the shooting of 27-year-old Odin Lloyd, a semiprofessional football player whose body was found in an industrial park in June 2013. Prosecutors say Lloyd and Hernandez were seen with Hernandez's friends, Carlos Ortiz and Ernest Wallace, that night. Ortiz and Wallace were also charged with murder, and they've pleaded not guilty. They'll be tried separately.
