Aaron Hernandez’s fiancée is facing questions about how she’s using the late NFL player’s trust fund money, intended for the couple’s 10-year-old daughter.
Shayanna Jenkins-Hernandez’s legal team submitted an invoice for reimbursement from the trust fund to a court-appointed trustee, claiming the expenses are related to daughter Avielle. The trustee, attorney David Schwartz, replied to the motion, objecting to the request.
“The Trustee understands that providing for Avielle includes expenses related to her household, but the expenditures from her late father’s NFL pension and Social Security benefits merit investigation for their reasonableness, if not correctness,” the filing asserts.

The filing goes on to cite examples of the expenses in question, including $17,000 in clothing, $10,000 in both entertainment expenses and online shopping, thousands in “self-care” costs, and $12,000 spent at HomeGoods.

“There is every reason to question whether and how the Conservator is applying the significant resources that should be available to pay for Avielle’s daily needs, including dance lessons, especially since all of her basic housing security and educational expenses are paid from the Trust,” Schwartz’s legal team asserts.
