The date for the trial right now is May 28, 2015. According to the website, "Hernandez, angry that someone bumped him on a nightclub dance floor and failed to apologize, followed a car driven by De Abreu that also carried Furtado and three other friends, then opened fire on the BMW as it sat at a red light early the morning of July 16, 2012."
Both men died at the scenes, while another man in the backseat suffered injuries. The case will be back in front of the Judge on Nov. 25. Hernandez's other trial in the death of Odin Lloyd is scheduled to begin on Jan. 9. Lloyd was dating the sister of Hernandez's fiancée at the time of his death. He was reportedly shot and killed in a secluded field about half a mile from Hernandez's North Attleboro, Massachusetts' home. Hernandez reportedly texted Lloyd the night of his death.
