Hernandez Trial Ends For The Week With Testimony About Co-defendant

The prosecution in the murder trial of ex-New England Patriots player Aaron Hernandez is trying to show that one of his co-defendants tried to cover his own tracks in the days after the killing.

Hernandez has pleaded not guilty to the June 2013 killing of Odin Lloyd.

Prosecutors have said Hernandez and two men, Ernest Wallace and Carlos Ortiz, picked Lloyd up from his Boston home in a rental car and drove him to a North Attleboro industrial park, where Lloyd was shot to death.

The sister-in-law of Hernandez's cousin says she drove Wallace to Georgia days afterward at his request.

Other witnesses say Wallace appeared nervous and unusually quiet soon after Lloyd's death.

Wallace and Ortiz are being tried separately.

Meantime, the Hernandez jury in Fall River has been hearing testimony since late January with seemingly no end in sight.

The prosecution has yet to wrap up its case, and then the defense gets its chance.

District Attorney Thomas Quinn was asked if the trial might extend to May or June...

Quinn says the trial got off to a slow start because of all the snow, but he's hopeful the pace will pick up now that the weather is improving.
