According to long article in Sports Illustrated, even Aaron's brother had to move on with own life. The article was published before Aaron Hernandez's suicide. Dennis, Jr's main point was that his younger brother's notoriety made it impossible to get a job, date... The brothers were still very close.
Dennis, Jr. told the Sports Illustrated reporter that he warned Aaron many times about his choice of 'friends.' He has a new roofing company in Texas and their mother plans to move to Texas to help with paper work. So his visits with Aaron in prison in Massachusetts would be less frequent.
