Background

Attorney Jose Baez said the family had arranged for researchers at Boston University's Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy Center to take custody of the brain. The center studies a progressive degenerative brain disease found in some athletes who have experienced repetitive brain trauma. Hernandez's body is at a Boston-area funeral home, but services will likely be held elsewhere for the Connecticut native.

Baez says he's retained Dr. Michael Baden, a former chief medical examiner for New York City, to perform an independent autopsy. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/football/ct-aaron-hernandez-john-3-16-20170420-story.html
