History

Historical Context

In 1997 a Santa Monica civil jury, led by Judge Hiroshi Fujisaki, held O.J. Simpson liable for the deaths of Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman and ordered $33.5 million in damages to the Brown and Goldman families. Decades later, FBI agents and New York prosecutors are reviewing the restitution fund for Epstein victims, citing the Simpson judgment as a precedent for massive victim compensation and heightened government oversight.
