The families of both Ron Goldman and Nicole Simpson who were brutally murdered in 1977, are seeking the US$100 million they are owed from OJ Simpson’s estate after his death was announced on Thursday (April 11).

Simpson was determined to be civilly responsible for US$33.5 million for the murders of Ron Goldman and Nicole Simpson.

Since then, the Goldman family has pursued the rising debt, now 198.51 per cent more than the initial debt owed. Though Simpson was found not guilty in the criminal case, this fee was charged in the civil case and it is essentially still posthumously owed, so the families are now going after his estate, a day after his death.

An attorney from Goldman’s family, David Cook said that the family is determined to find what is owed wherever they can,

“He died without penance,” Cook reportedly said, “We don’t know what he has, where it is or who is in control. We will pick up where we are and keep going with it.”

No word yet from the Simpson family in regards to Goldman’s or Cook’s claims.

The family is, however, asking for ” privacy” and “grace” during this time.
