Why fiancee of Aaron Hernandez says she ‘doubts’ he took his own life

On April 19, 2017, ex NFL star Aaron Hernandez was found hanging in his jail cell at the Souza-Baranowski Correctional Center in Massachusetts. It was reported that he jammed his cell door, had the words "John 3:16" on his forehead and had written the same Bible verse on the wall of his cell. Investigators said they found three handwritten notes next to a Bible.

Shayanna Jenkins-Hernandez, Hernandez's fiancée, says, however, that she isn't convinced that her high school sweetheart committed suicide.

"He was very positive, so excited to come home," Jenkins-Hernandez says in an exclusive interview with Dr. Phil airing Monday. "I spoke to him the night before and he was so, 'Daddy's going to be home,' and 'I can't wait to sleep in the bed with you guys, and I can't wait to just hold you and love you.' There was no indication at all of such events."

Dr. Phil also notes that the former New England Patriots teammate, who was serving a life sentence for the 2013 murder of Odin Lloyd, had just been acquitted of two murders from 2012 and was appealing the Lloyd conviction. "This had to be the high point of high points in a long, long time," he says to Jenkins-Hernandez.

"I agree, and that would make me doubt that he took his own life," she replies.

On Monday's episode, Jenkins-Hernandez, who is mother to Herndandez's 4-year-old daughter, answers questions about her fiancé's mysterious jail cell death, recalls the last conversation she had with him and discusses the note he left for her and why she has questions about it. And on Tuesday, Jenkins-Hernandez responds to rumors about the football star's sexuality and his alleged intimate relationship with a fellow inmate. Check here to see where you can watch.
