Karen Read
Infamous SUV Sold Before It Hit Auction
Published
Karen Read‘s infamous SUV — the one she was accused of using to kill her Boston cop boyfriend — didn’t even make it to bidding … ’cause someone swooped in with an offer before the auction could officially kick off.
The Lexus was set to go up for auction at Manzi Appraisers in Woburn, Mass. … where bidders had to prove they had at least $20K in the bank just to register.
A few people showed up ready to throw their hats in the ring — including two spotted holding bidding signs — but the whole thing was abruptly halted after an outside group made an offer behind the scenes.
Now, the SUV’s owner and the mystery buyers are negotiating the final deal … with proceeds expected to go toward Read’s defense fund.
As you know, prosecutors claimed Read used the SUV to strike and kill her boyfriend, John O’Keefe, during a snowy night in Canton back in 2022. But after a mistrial in her first case, Read was ultimately acquitted at retrial.
