Hernandez Lawyers Want Subpoena Of Patriot Records

Aaron Hernandez's attorneys want to issue a subpoena to the New England Patriots for medical, psychological and other records on their former player.

Hernandez has pleaded not guilty to murder in the June 2013 shooting death of Odin Lloyd, whose body was found near Hernandez's North Attleboro home.

On Monday a Bristol Superior Court judge set a July deadline for the team to respond to the defense's requests for the 2010-2013 records.

But in a motion Tuesday he attorneys said the material is potentially relevant to Hernandez's circumstances and state of mind, and ask to receive it within 30 days. The Patriots did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Hernandez has also pleaded not guilty in a separate case accusing him of killing two men in Boston in 2012.
