Investigators have released the results of a search warrant against Aaron Hernandez .
It gives further details of the prosecution's claim that Hernandez, along with two associates, picked up Odin Lloyd at his house in Boston, drove him to an industrial park less than a mile from Hernandez's home, and shot him five times.
Police released the specifics of the text message conversation that Hernandez had with Lloyd on the night of his death.
Here's the conversation as it appeared in court records (via Brian Ballou of the Boston Globe):
Hernandez (9:05 pm): "I'm coming to grab that tonight u gon b around I need dat and we could step for a little again"
[no answer]
Hernandez (9:34 pm): "Waddup."
Lloyd (9:37 pm): "Aite, where."
Hernandez (9:39 pm): "idk it don't matter but imma hit u when I'm dat way like Las time if my phone dies imma hit u when I charge it which will be in a lil."
Lloyd (10:00 pm): "Aite idk anything goin on"
Hernandez (10:13 pm): "I'll figure it out ill hit u on way."
Lloyd (12:22 am): "We still on."
The court records also show that Lloyd kept Hernandez in his phone under the name "Dis N***a."
Investigators say Hernandez picked up Lloyd at 2:33 a.m.
It's unclear what Hernandez was referring to when he said "grab that," but Hernandez's girlfriend reportedly told police that Lloyd was a marijuana dealer before Hernandez told her to stop talking to investigators.
At his arraignment, prosecutor William McCauley gave a 25-minute, detailed account of how the prosecution claims Hernandez killed Lloyd. Using a web of surveillance footage, as well as some alleged boneheaded moves by Hernandez, the prosecution claims they have clear evidence that the ex-NFL player "orchestrated the execution" of Lloyd's murder on the morning of June 17.
Here's the timeline of the alleged murder, as told by the prosecution:
Friday night, June 14: Hernandez and Lloyd are together at a club called Rumor in Boston. Lloyd talks to a group of people Hernandez doesn't like. Hernandez gets upset. This is the motive for the murder, according to the prosecution.
Sunday night, June 16, 9:02 p.m.: Hernandez, at his home in North Attleborough, sends a text to two friends from Connecticut saying, "Please make it back."
9:05 p.m.: Hernandez texts Lloyd saying he wants to come by his house and get together.
9:35 p.m.: Hernandez texts his two friends, "Get your ass up here."
10:23 p.m.: Hernandez sends another text to his two friends, "Hurry your ass up." They arrive sometime after that.
Later that night: Hernandez is observed on his home surveillance system holding a gun and telling one of the two friends that he can't trust anyone anymore.
1:12 a.m.: Hernandez and the two friends leave his house in a rented silver Nissan Altima.
2:10 a.m.: They stop for gas on their way to Lloyd's house on Fayston Street in Boston. Hernandez buys gas as well as Bubblelicious bubble gum and Black & Mild rolling papers.
The victim, Odin Lloyd, 27, was a semi-pro football player for the Boston Bandits. He was reportedly dating the sister of Hernandez's fiancee.
2:32 a.m.: The three of them arrive at Lloyd's house and text him, "We're here." Lloyd's sister sees him leave and get in the Nissan Altima.
During the drive: Hernandez tells Lloyd that he is upset that he was talking to those people at the club on Friday night.
3:07 a.m.: Lloyd texts his sister, "Did you see who I am with?"
3:11 a.m.: After she doesn't respond, he texts, "Hello?"
3:19 a.m.: His sister responds, "My phone was dead. Who?"
3:22 a.m.: Lloyd responds, "NFL."
3:23 a.m.: Lloyd texts his sister, "Just so you know."
3:23 a.m.: Hernandez's car is seen on a security camera driving to a secluded area in an industrial park. The area is used to store gravel and sand, and is out of the view of security cameras.
3:23-3:27 a.m.: Lloyd is shot five times with a .45-caliber semiautomatic weapon. He is shot three times and is still alive when he falls to the ground. He is then shot twice more in the back. Workers at a nearby industrial business hear gunshots.
3:28 a.m.: There is surveillance footage of the car leaving in the direction of Hernandez's house.
3:29 a.m.: Hernandez's car pulls up outside his house.
3:30 a.m.: The three men go into Hernandez's house. One of them is holding a semiautomatic gun. They go to the basement, and turn off the home security system. Six to eight hours of home surveillance footage goes missing.
The next day: Hernandez trades in his silver Nissan for a different rental car. The driver's side mirror is damaged, but Hernandez says he doesn't know how it happened. After Hernandez leaves, the rental car attendant finds a shell casing and a piece of chewed blue Bubblelicious gum under the driver's seat. The investigation reveals that the casing matches the casings at the crime scene, and the gum presumably belongs to Hernandez.
5:30 p.m.: Lloyd's body is found by a jogger.
DIE!!
