One day after he was charged with first degree murder in connection with the death of a 27-year-old Massachusetts man, published reports say former New England Patriot tight end Aaron Hernandez is now under investigation in connection with a July 2012 double murder in Boston.

The Boston.com story said investigators believe that Odin Lloyd, the man whose murder Hernandez was charged with on June 26, may have had some information about Hernandez's role in the July 2012 murders.
