Aaron Hernandez. Beating a dead horse

Let's say you have a pot roast or a ham you're getting ready to cook. Would you shoot them again to make sure the cow or pig was dead? Probably not. Somebody else already took care of that before you purchased that hunk of meat at the market. Whatever those animals were before, they most certainly don't pose a threat in one's kitchen anymore.

Such would seem to be the case with the latest goings on in the Aaron Hernandez debacle. We all know the former New England Patriots star was convicted of first degree murder and is serving a life sentence with no possibility of parole. Basically, barring successful appeals, which appear unlikely, it's over. He's not getting out. Ever. Like the above-mentioned cow or pig, he's not coming back either. Done is done.

So why -- somebody please tell me WHY -- is some prosecutor in his/her infinite wisdom considering charging Hernandez with jury tampering and dragging his butt out of the penitentiary back to court for another trial? Are they on a mission to waste taxpayer dollars to beat a horse that was put down a couple weeks ago?

More ridiculous yet, some lady has come forward and claimed Hernandez acted threateningly towards her in a bar. Gee, will that mean still ANOTHER trial?

Hey, the dude's already doing life, so what's the point? Give him a few more years on top of it? How utterly futile is that?

Aaron Hernandez was convicted of taking a life and now has to serve the rest of his behind bars for what he did.

The people that are trying to pile on might want to consider "getting a life".

Perhaps these are the sort of folks that would empty a clip into their pot roasts and hams just to make sure they're dead before popping them into the oven.

But like they say, sometimes there just ain't no fixing stupid.
