OJ Simpson died owing $100million to families of murder victims

OJ Simpson died owing his murder victim's family more than $100 million – and they say they're still going after the money.

Simpson, who died in Nevada on Wednesday age 76, was found liable in civil court for $33.5 million for the murders of Ron Goldman and Nicole Simpson in 1997. The Goldman family has been pursuing the growing debt ever since.

An attorney for Ron's father Fred said due to Simpson's failure to pay, the debt with interest has ballooned to over $100 million, and said he will be 'going to work on' collecting anything they can from Simpson's estate, even after the Juice's death.

'We have to start over here,' said debt collection attorney David Cook. 'We're going to work on that. There might be something out there.

'We've had this problem for a long long time,' he added. 'It could be in a trust, it could be probate. It could be all gone.'

The lawyer added, 'I'm in San Francisco. The lawyers we hired in Nevada, they were working with me… At this point, we're just starting out.'

Fred, 83, is still seething, and told DailyMail.com that the focus should be on his son's death, not OJ's.

'The only thing that I have to say today is that this is a further reminder of the loss of my son Ron,' the bereaved father said. 'It is a further reminder of my son's murder and a reminder about the many years we have missed Ron.

'His death is a reminder that Ron and Nicole were murdered by him. I am not going react to my thoughts about him dying. I have nothing to say about him. My response will not be about OJ's death but about the loss of my son's life by him. Thank you for calling. That is the only thing that I have to say.'

The last legal filings Goldman's attorneys made were in June 2022, when they claimed OJ still owed more than $96 million, and had paid just $133,000 since 1997.

Since their 1997 judgment for the 1994 murders, the Goldmans have garnished Simpson's income and sued him several times to claw back cash he earned for TV shows and his book, If I Did It.

In his interview with DailyMail.com, Cook described how he renewed the judgment in 2015, placing it at $57 million.

Two years later, when OJ was released from a Nevada prison after serving nine years for a robbery and kidnapping conviction, he estimated the debt to be 'a touch under $70 million'.

And in March 2021, a Nevada garnishment case listed the 'amount owed' by Simpson as '$75,164,425.74.'

1992 court filings from his split with his murdered wife Nicole said his net worth then was $10.8 million, with a monthly income of $55,000.

But according to the Goldmans' filings, he has only ever paid them $133,000 since they obtained their judgment against him.

OJ dodged paying the Goldmans by declaring bankruptcy in Florida, and his annual NFL pension of between $125,000 and $300,000 was protected from debt collection claims.

He also had $42,000 a year in Social Security.

Cook and his colleagues have previously looked into Simpson's kids' assets, including alleged real estate purchases in Florida.

But now the former NFL star has died, the attorney said they will be scrutinizing trusts and possibly filing in Nevada probate court to chase the money.

'I've done this work for 47 years. We don't know what's in Nevada. We've had this problem for a long, long time,' he said.

'You can be shocked, you can walk up on something and say there's nothing there.'
