Aaron Hernandez
It's a six-part series, probably all week long! Can't tell you how discouraged I was to see that not only be the dominant story above the fold, but so much time and effort devoted to it when are there are so many other things..... then again, considering for whom and of the paper is written..... it's not $urpri$ing at all.

Trump is keeping his, like it or not, and the Globe kind of straddled the fold like Baker straddles the fence (the Globe was already a vote for Gonzalez anyway).

"An anonymously written letter led Michigan inspectors to find badly decomposed remains of 11 infants hidden in a ceiling compartment of a shuttered Detroit funeral home, police said. Inspectors with the Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs found the remains Friday at the former Cantrell Funeral Home, just hours after receiving the letter telling them where the bodies were located. The funeral home has been closed since April, when state inspectors suspended its license following the discovery of bodies covered with what appeared to be mold. The remains of the infants, some of them apparently stillborn, were in a false ceiling between the first and second floors (AP)."
