Surprising no one, really...
Lawyers for Aaron Hernandez are asking a Massachusetts judge to throw out some evidence in the murder of Odin Lloyd.
They asked a Fall River (MA) judge to exclude surveillance video from Hernandez's home and they want evidence seized from cellphones and other electronic devices kept out of the case.
In addition, later today he is set to be arraigned on the alleged assault of a fellow inmate who was heckling him as well as allegedly threatening to kill a guard and his family when he was in a county jail.
Here's the defense pleading their early case...

Prosecutors: Carlos Ortiz Changes Testimony In Hernandez Case
((HT: MyFoxBoston))
And is now making it extremely interesting... and, maybe, extremely difficult to make a clean conviction...
The words "reasonable doubt" are now in play...
During the Ernest Wallace bail hearing, it was made clear that alleged Aaron Hernandez co-conspirator Carlos Ortiz is now saying that only Hernandez exited the car at the scene of Odin Lloyd's murder. Originally, Ortiz said both Hernandez and Wallace exited the car.
Prosecutors claimed Wallace told Hernandez's cousin, Tanya Singleton, about the Lloyd murder, and Singleton was jailed for refusing to testify before a grand jury investigating Odin Lloyd's murder. Investigators also allege a portion of a text message between Hernandez and Lloyd took place on Wallace's phone.
Wallace's attorneys maintained that their client should have had a bail lower than $500,000 because he was charged with accessory and not an actual murder charge. The judge ruled Wallace should continue to be held on $500,000 bail.

Ernest Wallace Held On $500k Bond
((HT: MyFoxBoston))
The third of the members allegedly involved in the death of Odin Lloyd was in front of an Attleboro (MA) judge to have his fate determined.
End result: Being held on $500,000 bond...
Ernest Wallace, prosecutors say, was with Hernandez when he picked Odin Lloyd up on June 17th. The case prosecutors are laying out against Wallace has him discussing with Aaron Hernandez recovering weapons that may be associated with the murder case. The two could be seen going into the basement of Hernandez's home as seen on the home security system.
More information in the case against Hernandez was released in a 104-page release yesterday that included Xeroxes of Hernandez holding what looks like a .45- the murder weapon in Lloyd's death.
Prosecutors also said that the next day Hernandez and Wallace returned a rental car and picked up a new one before Wallace went to Hernandez's Franklin "flop house"- the third location in suburban Boston that was eventually searched for evidence in the Hernandez case. They also maintain Wallace then fled to Florida with the assistance of Hernandez's aunt.
He was picked up there and extradited back to Massachusetts...
Prosecutors wanted Wallace to be held on $1 million bail- saying that he was a flight risk whose only source of income was Hernandez...
Which, really, isn't a surprise...

Belichick Addresses Hernandez For The First (And Only) Time, Probable Cause Hearing Postponed Simultaneously
New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick addressed the whole Aaron Hernandez situation from the Patriots viewpoint for the first and only time- strangely, while Hernandez was undergoing a probable cause postponement hearing (what it looked like on the right from NFL Network's Albert Breer and his Twitter)
.
And Michael McCann, on his Twitter, makes an excellent point in all of this:
Great pt by my fmr boss MT @brianheff77 Pats likely planned BB press conf to coincide w/court hearing. Kept crime reporters out of Foxboro.
Belichick, much like families that disown their relatives, only mentioned Hernandez's name in his introduction.
"I've been advised to address the subject once. And it's time for the New England Patriots to move forward. Ultimately, the judge and the jury will determine accountability," Belichick admitted to the press while reading a fairly-lengthy statement in a 22-minmute press conference ( a long presser for Belichickian standards, anyway).
Watch it in full hyah, thanks to the NFL Network
Here's an excerpt from the opening statement, thanks to Boston.com
"It's a sad day. It's really a sad day on so many levels," Belichick said. "Our thoughts and prayers are with the family with the victim. I express my sympathy with everyone that's been impacted. "A young man has lost his life, a family has suffered a tragic loss." Belichick admitted that he was out of the country twice when the investigation started and was continued. "I and other members of our organization were shocked and disappointed in what we'd learned, having someone in the organization that is involved in a murder investigation," he said. "And after consultation with ownership we acted swiftly and decisively." He also said that they will look at their evaluation process when it comes to draft picks and whether or not they fit the Patriots way and mindset. Belichick admitted that guns have been a concern in the league since he first came into it back in 1975. Meanwhile, Boston authorities think he may have ties to the July 2012 murder of two others that we have talked about in the past here at OSG Sports. Here's Justin Michaels covering both ((HT: NECN))
