O.J. Simpson’s son is being sued by the late legendary running back’s estate for allegedly moving into his father’s home without permission.
Simpson estate executor wants his home
Moreover, Justin Simpson, 36, is refusing to leave the mansion that is on an exclusive golf course, forcing the attorneys handling the estate to seek legal redress via a civil lawsuit. Justin is the son of O.J. Simpson and his murdered wife Nicole Brown.
Justin Simpson formed a company, Primary Holding LLC, and purchased O.J. Simpson’s house in Las Vegas after his father’s death.
According to legal documents obtained by TMZ, Simpson deliberately moved into the home after his Hall of Fame father died of prostate cancer to prevent it from being liquidated to reconcile enormous debts.
Simpson was tried for murder in ‘Trial of the Century’
As most Americans know, O.J. Simpson, aka “The Juice,” was charged in the double murder of his ex-wife Nicole Brown and her friend Ron Goldman in 1993. Even though the majority of Americans believed Simpson was guilty, he was acquitted of the crimes behind Johnny Cochran and the defense team known as “The Dream Team.”
Simpson was eventually found liable in a civil trial a year later and was ordered to pay tens of millions of dollars in punitive damages. The entertainment publication states that, at the time of Simpson’s death on April 10, 2024, he owed $33 million to the Goldman family and $12.5 million to Brown’s family. The Brown family claims that accrued interest over the past 30 years has caused that amount to swell to more than $100 million.
The executor seeks to satisfy debts
Since Simpson’s wealth was estimated at only $3 million when he died, Malcolm LaVergne, O.J.’s longtime lawyer and the executor of his estate, said they need to liquidate the home to satisfy some of his mountainous debts.
