[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting article. Seems the lawyer for the fiancé/daughter is trying every angle to get money. Last year a judge ruled they could not file a 20M suit as part of the class action against the NFL for suicides related to CTEs.

Interesting that the lawyer claims the NFL is the reason the daughter isn’t being raised by her father. Let’s just sweep under the rug the whole pesky “life in prison murder conviction”. As if that wasn’t going to prevent him from raising her...[/quote]
Agreed.

IMO, that AH MUST have had a lot of drug money lying around.  The book discusses AH and Ochocinco having switched numbers - AH took #81 only after compensation ($50k) from Ochocinco, and the proceeds were said to have fronted a drug deal involving one of the men mentioned in the Netflix series. (Ochocinco presumably knew nothing about what his payment to AH was used for).  There was a lot of money and guns floating around AH, it seemed.

Also, I was under the impression that the NFL may have owned the house that AH and girlfriend lived in? Not sure how I arrived at that, except that the NFL does own some houses. So the girlfriend or daughter got $1/2m of that?  Was it equity from the house?  I know they bought the house for $1.3m, then sold it for $1m because it needed work. I think the buyer sold it soon after for about $1.3. But anyway, still curious about the assets and monies that were inevitably around....[/quote]
I don’t think the fiancé/daughter have received any money from the sale of the house. I’m pretty sure that Aaron owned the house, not the NFL. Otherwise the lawsuits by the dead men’s’ estates and the fiancé wouldn’t be necessary.

I’ve googled a bunch and all I can find is that the fiancé filed a lawsuit against the estates of the three men who have sued Aaron’s estate. The lawsuit the fiancé filed was to enforce the homestead exemption for the daughter. In MA the homestead exemption protects up to 500k from creditors. So from what I can find, the fiancé/daughter are not going to get his forfeited money from the NFL, are not going to get money by suing the NFL for his CTE, are still in pending litigation against the Patriots for the CTE, and are in pending litigation for the homestead credit.

A fascinating mess.[/quote]

I think the Patriots were part of the CTE lawsuit filed against the NFL, not 2 separate cases, so the whole thing has been thrown out. The Massachusetts Supreme Court also reinstated his murder conviction last year, upending the rule that convictions are vacated if the defendant dies before all appeals are exhausted as antiquated and nonsensical, so that removed any uncertainty about the voiding of his contract and probably ensures the family cannot go after the Patriots for withholding the rest of his signing bonus. They took cap hits on him in 2013 and 2014 and he was off their books in 2015. I'm sorry for the state his poor choices have left his family in, but expecting the NFL or the Pats to pay for it is ridiculous. [/quote]
