O.J. Simpson’s Estate Not Enough to Pay Ron Goldman’s Family

The financial struggles of O.J. Simpson’s estate have come to light, revealing that there may not be enough money to pay off the massive debt owed to the family of Ron Goldman, the man Simpson was found liable for murdering in a civil trial. Simpson’s executor, Malcolm LaVergne, disclosed that the estate was not as wealthy as some may have assumed.

According to LaVergne, Simpson had less than five figures in one bank account in Nevada and overall had less than millions to his name. Despite receiving social security, a pension from his NFL career, and residuals from his acting gigs, Simpson was not living a lavish lifestyle. LaVergne mentioned that some signed memorabilia could potentially be sold to help pay off the debt, as one man’s trash could be another man’s treasure.

Initially, LaVergne had stated that the Goldman family would not receive any money from the estate. However, he has since changed his tune and expressed willingness to meet with Fred Goldman, Ron’s father, to discuss what the law requires in terms of payment. The Goldman and Brown families were awarded $33 million in a wrongful death lawsuit back in 1997, a figure that has now ballooned to over $100 million with interest.

As the saga of O.J. Simpson continues even after his death, the question remains whether the Goldman family will finally receive the compensation they have been fighting for over the past three decades. Stay tuned for updates on this ongoing legal battle.
