Do you care to share what evidence of this that you have that makes you so sure?
Hernandez killed someone and forfeited his life for doing so. He would have spent the rest of life in jail but chose to end it. The victim's relatives most probably would have preferred to see him get the death penalty rather than sit in jail. Even though he's dead now, they will probably feel cheated even thought what they probably wanted has happened. However, the fact that his suicide now clears the way for his wife and child to get the money from his contract is just another example of some of the ridiculous laws that we have in place. Corporations (teams) use these same laws to cheat deserving people daily. It just so happens that a convicted killer exploited a loophole to game the system against a corporation. There is no compassion for Hernandez having taken his life and as one poster has already said, there is nothing noble about it.
