Aaron Hernandez Hires Casey Anthony Attorney

Former Patriot Aaron Hernandez is heading back to court soon and this time he has hired the defense attorney who got Casey Anthony acquitted.

WVCB reports that attorney Jose Baez has been hired by Hernandez for his upcoming double-murder trial.

Hernandez, who is already serving a life sentence for his conviction in the 2013 murder of Odin Lloyd, goes to trial soon for the 2012 murders of two men in a drive-by shooting after a fight in a nightclub in Boston's South End.

Baez will be part of the defense team representing Hernandez at that trial.

Five years ago, Baez was on the team that got Casey Anthony acquitted after she was accused of murdering her toddler daughter.
