LaVergne said his first statement was a reaction to what Fred Goldman said after Simpson’s death was announced, per HuffPost.

LaVergne admitted this was “pretty harsh” and he is now willing to work with the families. This includes inviting those in charge of the estates for a meeting.

“I’m going to show my homework before I even have to give it to the courts and see what we can do in terms of getting this estate in order,” LaVergne said.

Subsequently, a civil suit in 1997 ended with Simpson being found liable in their deaths.

To date, according to the Los Angeles Times, the Goldman have gotten 1% they are owed.
