Do you think CTE is to blame for Aaron Hernandez’s violent behavior?

Kelli Calimlin

Although I agree he had CTE during his life and some report it as being a terrible case very early, I don’t believe this can justify murder. It’s hard to say though since I haven’t interacted with someone with the disease nor do I feel the medical community fully understand all that encompasses CTE’s symptoms.

I think it was a contributing factor, but there were many other issues in his life. Abuse, drug use, pressure, etc, that led him down the violent path.
