As the sister of Ron Goldman debuts a new podcast interviewing the victims of sensational crimes, she opens up along with her father about the horrific act that took her brother from her 28 years ago: 'It's very easy for me to avoid Brentwood. It's too painful.'
It has been nearly three decades since Fred Goldman and daughter Kim Goldman were transformed almost overnight into reluctant celebrities amid almost inconceivable grief for Ron Goldman — their son and brother, respectively. Ron was a 25-year-old tennis instructor and waiter who was murdered, along with Nicole Brown Simpson, outside her Brentwood home on July 12, 1994.
What followed was dubbed the Trial of the Century, with Nicole’s estranged husband, NFL star turned actor, ultimately being found not guilty of either killing. A civil lawsuit in 1997 did find Simpson liable for both deaths and awarded the Goldmans millions in damages — less than 1 percent of which they say has been recouped. Simpson, now 74, later went to jail for a 2007 gunpoint robbery of sports memorabilia in Las Vegas. He was released in 2017, having served nine years.
