Watch report

In the court brief, the prosecution says Hernandez used, "…coded messages to communicate with persons outside of jail; related prior offenses; inculpatory denials of ownership of a vehicle connected with the investigation; the extent of his control over persons charged as accessories; other matters relating to his codefendants, including their whereabouts and likely criminal liability."

Hernandez should have been aware his phone calls were being recorded, prosecutors said, noting that all inmates are given "unambiguous notice" that all calls, except those with their attorneys, are taped.

The affidavit also said Hernandez has been visited by his fiancée, Shayanna Jenkins, and cousin, Tanya Cummings Singleton.

Both women are facing charges connected to the homicide of Odin Lloyd.
