Just Jack Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 http://www.cnn.com/2017/05/02/us/aaron-hernandez-car-ebay/ Aaron Hernandez's silver 2006 Toyota 4Runner, which prosecutors said was the "murder car" used in a drive-by double killing, is now up for sale on eBay as an "infamous" collectible item. "This is the REAL DEAL !!! Aaron Hernandez' (sic) infamous silver Toyota 4-runner," the eBay listing reads. "Nows your chance to own this infamous piece of famous football memorabilia !!" ... "The Toyota is just the way it came from the impound yard, and still has the black soot on the map lights, and sunroof switch where the police dusted for finger prints !!" the listing says.

DriveFor1Outta5 Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 (edited) I'm surprised they even released that car back to the dealership. Seems like a dumb thing in hindsight now that's its become a sick spectacle. Edited May 3, 2017 by DriveFor1Outta5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoSaint Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 I'm surprised they even released that car back to the dealership. Seems like a dumb thing in hindsight now that's its become a sick spectacle. I mean, it's messed up that anyone would pay premium for it... but why shouldn't the car go back into circulation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Billieve Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Yeah but it's not being sold as a vehicle, but a ghoulish collectible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DriveFor1Outta5 Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 (edited) I mean, it's messed up that anyone would pay premium for it... but why shouldn't the car go back into circulation? Lots of vehicles used for crimes are sold through auctions by municipalities. So yes, it would be back in circulation. However, it wouldn't be sold advertising what crime it was used for. It was given back to the owner, and now he is selling it. Cars are taken and sold all the time through civil forfeiture. When sold at auction law enforcement pays the balance of the lien. I was just thinking that this is one time law enforcement would have been better not releasing the vehicle back to the lien holder.

Nanker Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 (edited) Aaron Hernandez's murder conviction has been vacated. He's now officially an innocent (but dead) man. A Bristol Superior Court judge rules Tuesday morning that Hernandez's murder conviction for the killing of Odin Lloyd is to be vacated, making as if the trial that determined his guilt never happened. His legal team has been fighting to vacate the conviction since his suicide. State law indicates that convictions in the appeals process can be vacated if the convicted person dies before the process ends.

Royale with Cheese Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 It's a Toyota so it will run well for another 10 years. Good purchase Mr. Hernandez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

State law indicates that convictions in the appeals process can be vacated if the convicted person dies before the process ends. This doesn't make any sense to me. He was convicted of the crime, why vacate it? Just because he's dead doesn't change the fact he did it. I'd be pissed if I was related to the victim. Maybe chisel the word murderer on his grave stone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
