"I know everything happens for a reason and I know 'GOD' has a plan for me and something good will come out of this," Hernandez said in the letter.

A former inmate of the Bristol County Jail, who was only identified as Karl by TMZ, wrote Hernandez a letter showing his support for the ex-New England Patriots player. The letter was accompanied by photos of Hernandez's wife and young daughter, which the 23-year-old has reportedly placed on the walls of his prison cell.
"I'm not someone who cares to judge him," Karl told TMZ. "I think he should have his day in court before everyone judges him."
Karl also said, as a former inmate who spent time in the same jail 15 years ago, he hoped to help Hernandez get through his own incarceration in the best way possible.
"I'm just in support of someone that I looked up to," he said. "I just think that...I now he's a young guy, and stuff that I've learned and went through I want to pass it on to him and hopefully it can make him a better person."
