Jury Selection Resumes in Aaron Hernandez Double Murder Trial

The former New England Patriots tight end already is serving a life sentence with no possibility of parole

Jury selection is continuing Tuesday in ex-NFL star Aaron Hernandez's second murder trial.

The former New England Patriots tight end already is serving a life sentence with no possibility of parole for the 2013 murder of Odin Lloyd. Lloyd was a semi-professional football player who was dating the sister of Hernandez's fiancee.

Hernandez is being tried in the slayings of two other men, Daniel de Abreu and Safiro Furtado, both of them fatally shot in 2012 after they left a Boston nightclub.

Prosecutors allege that Hernandez was the gunman and went after the pair after one of the men spilled a drink on him at the club.
