A man is charged with calling in a bomb threat that closed the Justice Center last week interrupting the murder trial of Former New England Patriots player Aaron Hernandez, South Coast Today reports.

Paul Haddad was identified as the man who made the bomb threat according to Detective Lt. Ronald Furtado.

Last week, the Massachusetts courthouse was evacuated following the bomb threat by Haddad.

Police officers searched the building and no explosives were found according to a police report. No further information on the bomb threat or the suspect is available.

The Aaron Hernandez murder trial has resumed since then where he is accused of killing Lloyd Odin in June 2013.

New England Patriots team owner Robert Kraft testified Tuesday saying that Hernandez told him he was innocent, NBC News reports.

Prosecutors asked Kraft about the events that happened just two days after the killing. He said he found Hernandez in a weight room working out at the time and pulled him into an office for a private talk.

"I understood there was an incident that had transpired, and I wanted to know whether he was involved, and if he was, any player that comes into our system, I consider part of our extended family, and I wanted to get him help," he said.

Kraft added that Hernandez said that he was not involved.

Prosecutors believe that Hernandez was at a bar earlier in the evening before the murder occurred then drove to Boston with two friends, picked up Lloyd and killed him in an industrial park.

Alexander Bradley, a man who sued Hernandez over being shot in the face in Florida, testified on Wednesday, Yahoo! Sports reports.

Bradley recalled Hernandez telling him that he had difficulty trusting people including his friends.

Hernandez pleaded not guilty in the killing of the husband of his fiancée's sister. Lloyd's body was found in an industrial park near Hernandez's home two years ago.
