Person Of Interest In Aaron Hernandez Case Killed
PFT Reports:
A member of Aaron Hernandez’s family whom police wanted to question in connection with the ongoing murder investigation has died in a car accident.
The Hartford Courant reports that Thaddeus Singleton III, the son-in-law of Hernandez’s uncle, was killed when the car he was driving flew off the road and crashed into a pole. The car Singleton was driving was owned by Hernandez’s uncle. The death was ruled an accident.
It is unclear what police believed Singleton knew about the murder of Odin Lloyd, but the report says that police had been seeking to speak with him. Singleton had previously been convicted of multiple drug charges in Connecticut.
Singleton lived in Bristol, Connecticut, the hometown of Hernandez and both of the other men suspected of being involved in the murder of Lloyd.

Jaw Jam (@JAWJAMZ) – No Sleep (EP)
Jaw Jam has been turning our heads for awhile now and we are very excited to present this 3-track EP from this excitingly fresh artist. The release starts off with the title track, “No Sleep”, featuring vocalist Kiki Hitomi of King Midas Sound, with a powerful kick and overall percussive drive. “Can’t Recall” seems like Jaw Jam’s infectious answer to house music and is bound to get stuck in your head. “Long Night” wraps up this diverse, yet concise EP with some absolutely mental synth work and stuttered half-time beats. This is one of those releases you want to play from start to finish.
