Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  (CNN) E hiahia ana mātou kia atawhai a mātou kaipatu. Ki te haere ki te marae, ki te whakaatu i te pouri, ki te korero mai he tino tangata pai ratou, nā te mea i wehi rātau mō ō rātau oranga, i te mea rānei he haurangi rātau. Ahakoa kāore pea aua mea i te pono, he maha tonu ngā wā e whakaaetia ana hei take tika mō te patu tangata. Na, ko Aaron Hernandez, te kaitakaro o mua o te New England Patriots, ā, ko ia nei te kaipahua, kāore ia i whai i aua rēhitatanga. I haere ia ki te marae me te ahua o te whakapehapeha, ko tona matenga i whakaarahia kia rite ki te $40 miriona, ko te whetu NFL i rua tau noa iho i mua. He maha nga wa i mau ai ia i a ia e winking ana ki tana hoa rangatira, a Shayanna Jenkins, i te wa o te whakawa. Kāore hoki mātou i pai ki tana whakapehapeha. Kāore a Hernandez i tuku i tētahi kupu taunakitanga. Kāore ia i te whakama, i te pouri rānei. Kāore ia i tangi. Ko tana roia ake, ko James Sultan, i whakaae ko Hernandez "te kaiwhakaatu" i te kohuru o Odin Lloyd, "i mahia e tetahi i mohio ia", engari i kii kaore tana kaihoko i mahi i te hara. Ahakoa i mua i te putanga o te whakataunga he hara i te Wenerei, ki te tokomaha - ko te hunga e pūrongo ana i te whakawa - ko te tūpato te hara nui rawa o te kaituku. "Ko te whakapehapeha o Aaron Hernandez", he upoko korero a te New Yorker i whakapae. Kāore au i te mārama. He aha te take i whakapehapeha ai a Hernandez i te marae, i haere haere rānei, i ataata rānei ki tana kotiro? Ahakoa e pai ana koe, kāore rānei, koia tonu ia. Ko te taunakitanga te mea nui. A, i tēnei wā, i te āhua nei kua āta whakaaro te huinga o ngā taunakitanga ā-roto ki tēnei kaituku, ā, kua tae mai ki te whakatau tika: he hara mō te kohuru tuatahi i te patu o Odin Lloyd i te tau 2013. I whiua a Hernandez, 25, ki te whare herehere mō ake tonu atu me te kore e taea te tuku i a ia kia whakamatea. I kitea hoki ia he hara mo te pupuri ture kore o te patu me te pupuri ture kore o nga patu. He whakatau tika. Heoi anō, he uaua ki te kore e pouri i runga i te pirau o te ora mo Lloyd, ā, ināianei ko Hernandez, he hoa rāua. Ko te whutupaoro te mea pai rawa atu i a Hernandez, ina koa i muri i te matenga ohorere o tana papa i muri i te mahinga...
Roxanne Jones: He tika te whakatau a te rōia i te hara o Hernandez, engari ko te ngaronga o te oranga mo te kaitākaro me tana patunga he mea whakamataku. E ai ki a ia, e mōhio ana te NFL, ngā Patriots ki ōna raruraru o mua, engari kāore i taea te matapae i ōna mahi, ā, i pai te whakahaere i te take.
