Jan Vertonghen Belgium Jersey . The judge sternly instructed the prosecutor to restrain himself and he apologized -- then went right back to trying to pick holes in the testimony of the double-amputee runner. It was a harsh day of cross-examination for Pistorius, challenged relentlessly about his account of the moments just before he killed Reeva Steenkamp, as well as circumstances related to several firearms charges against him, including the firing of a gun in a crowded restaurant.FALL RIVER, Mass. - Prosecutors in a murder case against Aaron Hernandez wont be allowed to tell a jury about two other killings with which the ex-New England Patriot is charged or the final text messages the victim sent to his sister, a judge ruled Friday.Hernandez has pleaded not guilty to murder in the June 2013 killing of Odin Lloyd, a semi-professional football player who was dating the sister of Hernandezs fiancee. He has also pleaded not guilty to the fatal shootings of two men in 2012 after an encounter at a Boston nightclub.Prosecutors have said Hernandez may have showed Lloyd the spot where the double shooting allegedly took place, and suggested that was a possible motive for killing Lloyd.But Judge Susan Garsh, after hearing arguments, said that theory is clearly in the realm of speculation and does not comport with common sense. She said there was no demonstrated link between the two crimes and disallowed the introduction of the 2012 homicides.Garsh also said Friday she would not admit the final text messages sent by Lloyd to his sister, including one sent just minutes before he was shot to death at an industrial park near Hernandezs North Attleborough home.Prosecutors say Lloyd sent the messages while in a car with Hernandez and suggested they showed he had become fearful. One said U saw who IIm with and another indicated the person was NFL, referring to Hernandez.ddddddddddddDefence lawyers called it rank speculation that the texts indicated fear and said they were inadmissible.Garsh said the texts did not suggest any hostility and that prosecutors didnt meet the burden to prove Lloyd felt he was at an imminent death.Jury selection is scheduled to start Jan. 9. Patriots coach Bill Belichick and team owner Robert Kraft have been listed by prosecutors as possible witnesses.Garsh also ruled that prosecutors may not introduce the shooting of Alexander Bradley, a former associate of Hernandez. Bradley has filed a civil suit against Hernandez that says the ex-player shot him in the face in 2013 after an argument in Florida.Massachusetts prosecutors sought to admit a range of evidence related to the ex-players other alleged crimes or bad acts, including the Boston homicides, firearms found at Hernandezs home or elsewhere and even a photograph obtained from the celebrity gossip website TMZ that depicts Hernandez holding a gun.His attorneys warned against compromising his right to a fair trial.It is critical that this trial be about the murder of Odin Lloyd, defence attorney James Sultan said Friday.The judge allowed in some evidence relating to firearms, but disallowed the photograph.
