Aaron Hernandez is allegedly killed two people over a spilled drink.

Aaron Hernandez was arraigned today for the drive-by-murders of Daniel Abreu and Safiro Furtado outside a Boston nightclub in July 2012.

Hernandez pleaded not guilty, and for the first time, the prosecution detailed what they believed caused the murders.

According to the District Attorney, Abreu accidentally bumped into Hernandez, spilling a drink, and did not apologize. This made Hernandez extremely upset, who felt that he had been disrespected a lot more at night clubs in Boston. Surveillance video captures Hernandez angrily pacing outside the nightclub before the victims left.

The entire time Daniel Abreu and Safiro Furtado had no idea that Aaron Hernandez was angry at them. Hernandez would later pull up alongside their car at a stop light, and fire at least five shots.

Aaron Hernandez defense attorney complained that the case has been unfair due to the media spectacle and the unbiased coverage.

Hernandez was ordered without bail, and will appear in court on June 24.

Aaron Hernandez played college football for the University of Florida, where he was a member of a BCS National Championship team and earned All-American honors. Hernandez was drafted by the New England Patriots in the NFL Draft and was selected for the Pro Bowl following his second NFL season.

One Direction band gets high in the back of a Van in Peru

Last month the members of One Direction visited Peru and while they were visiting the sites and attractions they decided to pass a joint around.

But, One Direction decided to film themselves showing the world that they are just a group of twenty year olds getting high in the back of a van.

The five minute clip, reported by the Daily Mail, was filmed on April 27 as One Direction traveled by convoy by a police escort to a 40,000-person concert in Lima, Peru.

The clip shows exactly what you would expect from a bunch of twenty-year-olds getting high.

 

• Zayn and Louis on video smoking roll-up in back of SUV on way to concert in Peru in April
• Shocking video seen by MailOnline shows them in smoke-filled car with Zayn asking ‘Are we allowed to talk contraband in this?’
• Shows a dark side to the band adored by countless young girls and their mothers for their wholesome image
• As cameraman Louis pans to police motorbike outrider escorting them he says: ‘That’s the po po. One-nil’
• Later he adds: ‘He’s having a look. He’s thinking, “I’m sure I can smell an illegal substance in there.” And he’s hit the nail on the head’
• Louis passes Zayn the cigarette and says: ‘One very very important factor of Zayn’s warm up of course is Mary J, herself’

 

“I’m just wondering now, we’re sitting here in Peru. Will this come back to me? Who knows? Maybe. Maybe not,” he later ponders as an assistant gives him an update that he was able to arrange for “a full chicken” when the band arrives in Chile.

A spokesperson told reporters, “The matter is now in the hands of our lawyers.”

Weightlifting supplement, Creatine is now considered as the cause of Elliot Rodger’s mass shooting.

The latest theory behind what prompted UCSB shooter Elliot Rodger to lose it and kill several innocent people was his “addiction” to weight lifting supplement creatine. The Mirror UK recently interviewed, Chris Akin, who had known Elliot Rodger for years and reports that he noticed a “sinister change in him after he started to take creatine.”

He claimed he saw the “anger and changes” in the student – the son of Hollywood director Peter Rodger – during their weekly chats on Skype…

“He would also tell me how he wanted to get into the bodybuilding lifestyle and started on creatine around four months ago. I could notice the anger and changes every time we spoke on Skype.

“I believe he took it everyday. He wouldn’t answer my questions about his usage but as time went on you could totally tell the changes in his character.

Creatine is not steroids, it is not a hormone, it is not linked to testosterone, and it does not cause roid rage. It is not crystal meth nor is it a stimulant. What creatine does is essentially increase water retention allowing you to do more reps while working out in the gym. Creatine is one of the most used supplements and it is well studied and considered very safe except for minor kidney issues, if not taken properly.

According to International Business Times, Elliot Rodger was a frequent visitor and user of Bodybuilding.com and in a forum post days before the shooting he complains about being unable to find a girlfriend.

Chris Akin, states in his interview that he was bullied online causing him to “snap”.

“I believe there are more factors that contributed to him ‘snapping’, he frequented bodybuilding forums were he was endlessly harassed in private messages and on threads that he created.

“He posted a lot of messages about being alone and wanting women. But this group of people would call him ugly and make fun of him.

“On the messages I saw they would taunt him and tell him he will never get girls and he will be forever alone.”

This is not the first time the website bodybuilding.com “misc” forums were in the news. In 2008, a member of the forum committed suicide streaming live on Justin.TV while posting his suicide note in the forums. The moderators of the community even egged him on to kill himself.

Biggs, also known as CandyJunkie on the forum (bodybuilding.com) and Feels Like Ecstasy on Justin.TV, is alleged to have been a “well known troll” on the forum. He created a thread in the “misc” category yesterday afternoon detailing the amount of drugs he planned to take with the intention to kill himself. The moderators of the forum didn’t take his threats seriously “on account of his past trolling,” and other forum members continued to egg him on. At that point, Biggs posted his suicide note, which conveyed a general sense of depression and disappointment with life, not necessarily motivated by any hardship or cyber-bullying he may have received online. [Mashable]

It seems as though people are having a hard time justifying or understanding why Elliot Rodger did what he did. It may not look so simple, but it could be that he just hated women for not giving him any attention.

What do you think? Have you ever taken Creatine? Do you think Creatine is the cause of the recent murders? What do you think caused Elliot Rodger to kill so many people? Are you going to take Creatine in the future? Share with us your thoughts in the comments below!

A Sequel to My Big Fat Greek Wedding, My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 is coming soon.

12 years after the original was released, it has become one of the biggest independent films in movie history.

Now, My Big Fat Greek Wedding is being made into a feature film sequel. Nia Vardalos, who wrote the first production, has written the sequel and it will star John Corbett, her groom in the original romantic comedy. Also, expect the Portokalos family to return as well.

“Now that I’m experiencing motherhood, I’m ready to write the next chapter of my family story,” Vardalos said in a statement. “Of course a few jaded folks in the press corps will claim I ran out of money or just want to kiss John Corbett again. One of these things is true.”

My Big Fat Greek Wedding centered around a young Greek-American woman’s trials and tribulations when she falls in love with a non-Greek and struggles to get her family to accept her fiance while she herself comes to terms with her heritage and cultural identity.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Vardalos has written the script for the project and will reprise the role of Toula Portokalos, a first-generation Greek-American woman. Corbett will play the non-Greek who fell in love with her in the original.

The plot involves the reveal of a family secret and a new wedding which brings the Greek clan back together again (the wedding is described as “bigger and fatter”).

According to Deadline, Rita Wilson will produce the production with Playtone partners Tom Hanks and Gary Goetzman. Gold Circle productions will have Paul Brooks executive producing alongside Scott Niemeyer, Norm Waitt, Steven Shareshian and Nia Vardalos.
