Kansas City Chiefs TE Tony Moeaki took to Twitter today following the suicide of his teammate Jovan Belcher. Belcher shot himself in the parking lot at Arrowhead Stadium after shooting and killing his girlfriend early Saturday morning.
Devastated. One of everyone's favorite teammates including one of mine. Great great great teammate. We will miss him forever.

Moeaki then tweeted:
For the people that misunderstood my intention.. I was talking as far as a teammate standpoint. I'm devastated for everyone involved

I am guessing Moeaki received some angry tweets from followers who felt his first tweet was insensitive to the loss of the woman Belcher murdered.
This is obviously a complicated situation for those close to Belcher. I am sure they are all horrified at Jovan’s actions as well as devastated by the loss of their friend.
