ATLANTA -- The three-day auction and estate sale of Diane and Tex McIver's Eatonton ranch continues Saturday and Sunday in Putnam County.
Atlanta's Ahlers & Ogletree Auction Gallery and Peachtree Battle Estate Sales are offering the estate of Diane Smith McIver and Tex McIver in the event.
Earlier this year, Buckhead attorney Claud 'Tex' McIver was convicted in the September 2016 murder of his wife Diane as she sat in the front passenger seat of an SUV in the streets of Atlanta. Tex sat behind her and had a loaded revolver in his lap.
In the murder trial, McIver claimed he'd had the loaded gun due to a fear of possible protesters as the SUV moved through the streets of midtown Atlanta.
Ahlers & Ogletree previously handled the sale of Diane McIver's personal clothing and effects in the weeks following her murder in 2016. Offerings of this weekend's estate sale will include luxury furnishings, antiques, fine art, rugs, decorative art pieces and more.
The auctions are being held at the ranch at:
603 Pea Ridge Road SE
Eatonton, GA 31024
