Friend allegedly shot by Aaron Hernandez files suit against CNN

A former friend of ex-NFL star and convicted murderer Aaron Hernandez is, according to The Boston Globe, suing CNN for airing images of him recovering from a gunshot wound to the face he says was inflicted by Hernandez.

Alexander Bradley claims the news network invaded his privacy by allegedly obtaining images of him in a hospital bed without his consent and airing them in a documentary, “Downward Spiral: Inside the Case Against Aaron Hernandez.”

The newspaper says Bradley is seeking compensation in excess of $100,000 for emotional distress caused by the alleged privacy breach.

Bradley and Hernandez settled a suit earlier this year.
