(Reuters) - Ex-NFL star Aaron Hernandez's fiancée took the stand in his murder trial in Massachusetts on Friday as a key witness who was granted immunity after charges she initially lied to a grand jury investigating the case. Shayanna Jenkins, 25, has attended the trial intermittently since it began in late January, and it had remained unclear whether she would provide evidence against Hernandez, with whom she has a two-year-old daughter. Hernandez, also 25, is on trial for fatally shooting semi-professional football player Odin Lloyd, who had been dating Jenkins' sister, Shaneah. Prosecutors contend Hernandez and two friends, Ernest Wallace and Carlos Ortiz, picked up Lloyd at his Boston home in the early hours of June 17, 2013, and drove him to an industrial park near Hernandez's house in North Attleborough, Massachusetts, where he was later found dead.
