I'm Stephen Ruiz, online content editor for OrlandoSentinel.com. The weekend is almost here. We invite you to pass some time before then by enjoying some of our top stories. Send me an email and let me know what you think.

Good morning. It's Friday, April 21. In our top offering, columnist George Diaz writes that the reaction to Aaron Hernandez's suicide is disturbing.

Elsewhere, the Orange County Sheriff's Office is investigating after Aramis Ayala, who is the state's first African-American state attorney and opposes the death penalty, received a noose in the mail.

And finally, we preview the Florida Fringe Festival with a video at OrlandoSentinel.com.
