Ron Goldman
Ronald Lyle Goldman (July 2, 1968 – June 12, 1994) was an American restaurant waiter and aspiring actor. A volunteer working with children suffering from
cerebral palsy, Goldman appeared as a contestant on the short-lived game show ''
Studs'' in early 1992. Goldman lived independently from his family and supported himself as an employment headhunter,
tennis instructor, and waiter, and worked occasionally as a model. Goldman earned an
emergency medical technician license, but he decided not to pursue that as a career.
In 1994, Goldman befriended
Nicole Brown Simpson, the ex-wife of American football player
O. J. Simpson. On 12 June 1994, Goldman
was murdered, along with Brown, outside her home in
Brentwood, Los Angeles. Following a controversial and highly publicized
criminal trial, Simpson was acquitted of both charges of murders, though he was later found
liable for their
deaths in a 1997
civil lawsuit filed by Goldman's father Fred.
