Lto fiancee of Aaron Hernandezis in serious trouble for allegedly having embezzled the trust fund left over for the couple’s 10-year-old daughter after the former football player’s suicide. NFL in 2017.
Shayanna Jenkins-Hernandez has been spending an exorbitant amount of his daughter’s money on questionable items, according to court documents obtained by PEOPLE.
The mother of two daughters spent $17,000 on clothing, $10,000 on entertainment expenses and thousands more on “personal items,” the outlet reported.
According to the declarations of expenses, Jenkins-Hernandez he spent $12,000 just at HomeGoods, a home furnishings store.
The trust attorney, David Schwartzbegan to object to reimbursement bills for Jenkins-Hernandez after she asked the trust for $10,000 to cover the cost of dance lessons for her daughter Avielle, who has even participated in several competitions.
Attorney Schwartz denied the request.
“Los $150,000 annually issued to Jenkins-Hernandez to cover Avielle’s daily expenses are enough to cover her dance classes,” Schwartz argued.
“Large amounts of money are spent in each category of accounting, with little clear identification of how these outlays benefit Avielle,” the documents state.
“The Trustee understands that providing for Avielle includes expenses related to her home, but her late father’s NFL pension expenses and Social Security benefits warrant investigation for their reasonableness, if not correctness.”
They ask that Jenkins be removed as guardian
Schwartz filed a request to have Jenkins-Hernandez removed as Avielle’s guardianbut she countered and demanded that he be removed as trustee, as the rejection prevented Avielle from pursuing her favorite pastime.
“There are many reasons to question if and how the Curator is applying the significant resources that should be available to pay for Avielle’s daily needs, including dance lessons, especially since all the basic expenses of education and security of her housing are paid for by the Trust,” Schwartz’s legal team said.
Avielle was born a year before the arrest of Aaron Hernandezguilty of the 2013 murder of Odin Lloyd, who at the time was dating the sister of the former United States tight end New England Patriots.
