A Massachusetts grand jury has indicted ex-NFL player Aaron Hernandez on a first-degree murder charge in the June shooting death of his friend Odin Lloyd.
Murder and weapons charges against Hernandez and indictments against two other people connected to him were announced one hour before the former New England Patriots star made a brief appearance in Attleboro District Court.
Hernandez, who is being held without bail, wore a dark suit and white shirt, with his wrists shackled in front of him. He will be arraigned in Superior Court next Wednesday or later, prosecutors said.
The 23-year-old athlete, who faces life in prison if convicted, has pleaded not guilty. He did not speak but mouthed "I love you" to someone in the spectator seats.
