Aaron Hernandez's fiancee disposed of box after murder

Shayanna Jenkins, the fiancee of former New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez, continued her testimony in court on Monday with prosecutors trying to understand more about what happened in the days and months surrounding the murder of Odin Lloyd. She has revealed very little thus far.

Jenkins has either been lying or has a horrendous memory. She admitted to removing a cardboard box from Hernandez’s home in North Attleboro, Mass. — per Aaron’s request — and disposing of it in a dumpster the day after Lloyd was killed.

Prosecutors have alleged that the murder weapon that was used to shoot Lloyd was inside the box, which supposedly weighed around 40 pounds. While Jenkins admitted that Hernandez made it seem “important” that she dispose of the box, she said she did not look inside it and never discussed what was in it with the 25-year-old. Despite prosectors showing Jenkins ATM receipts and surveillance footage that place her in Plainville, Mass. that night, she maintained that she has no idea where she disposed of the box.

Jenkins’ sister Shaneah, who dated Lloyd, left the courtroom in tears after hearing Shayanna’s testimony about the box.

Jenkins has been granted immunity in exchange for her testimony. To this point, she has said very little that would incriminate Hernandez. Apparently Shayanna is not bothered by what Hernandez allegedly tried to do with the babysitter. Her favorite phrase is “I don’t remember.”
