There was a paperwork error with the original suit on 6/13/13, so it's unclear if Hernandez was served before the murder of Odin Lloyd (6/17), but the suit was re-filed July 1, 2013 and is still pending.
So, why would he only seek $100K?
Is it because he is a liar and has no evidence and was seeking a basic settlement to go away? So, sue for $100K hoping AH would throw him a 30-50K bone and no trial?
Or is it because he had an oral agreement with AH to take care of his medical bills that AH decided he didn't want to make good on?
Why would he not tell FLLE?
Is it because he didn't want to get his buddy in trouble for gun charges, etc.? (AH does not have the right to carry in Florida, allegedly)
Is it because he was doing some fucked up shit that night too and didn't want to get himself in trouble?
Is it because there are no facts to back up his claim and wanted to keep things from being investigated?
He's not on trial today, but I don't think it's as simple as "oh he's clearly out for money"
Without anything in the way of evidence, but based on actions, it seems one of two stories:
- Bradley agreed to cover-up the shooting in exchange for AH taking care of him, then AH reneged or Bradley asked for extra or whatever.
- Bradley or someone else was actually responsible for Bradley getting shot, he is just suing AH because the facts are murky and AH has cash.
