BOSTON (CBS) – What a seller claimed to be the jailhouse identification card of former New England Patriots player Aaron Hernandez was posted for sale online.
An eBay listing was posted on Friday showing a laminated badge complete with identifying information and a photo of Hernandez, who is currently in prison during his trial for the murder of Odin Lloyd.
The online listing title claimed that the item is Hernande'z Suffolk County jail identification card.
"I was in jail with Aaron Hernandez the for patriot super star.. I happen to com across his jail id (sic)," the eBay user posted.
