OJ Simpson civil judgment collection to continue after death, Goldman attorney pledges

Goldman family attorney David Cook says he will continue to pursue the $33.5 million judgment against the estate of O.J. Simpson after his death

O.J. Simpson may be gone, but the Goldman family's fight to collect the $33.5 million civil judgment against him is far from over. David Cook, the attorney for the Goldman family, has pledged to continue pursuing the judgment against Simpson's estate.

Simpson was found liable for the deaths of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman in a 1997 civil trial. However, he was never criminally convicted of their murders. In 2018, Simpson was released from prison after serving nine years for an unrelated armed robbery conviction.

Cook says that he has been trying to collect the judgment from Simpson for years, but that Simpson has made it difficult by hiding his assets. Cook believes that Simpson's death will make it easier to collect the judgment, as his estate will be forced to liquidate assets to pay his debts.

"I've been dealing with this problem since 2008, so it's been a long time," Cook told the New York Post"As to O.J. Simpson here, it's really simple, it's called dead without penance."

The Goldman family has already collected some money from Simpson's estate. In 2019, they auctioned off Simpson's Heisman Trophy for $350,000. They also plan to sell Simpson's home in Las Vegas.

Cook says that he is confident that the Goldman family will eventually be able to collect the full $33.5 million judgment. "We're going to get every penny," he said.

The Goldman family's fight to collect the judgment from O.J. Simpson is a reminder that even death cannot escape the consequences of one's actions. Simpson may be gone, but his victims will never forget him. And the Goldman family is determined to see that he is held accountable for his crimes, even in death.
