Simpson was acquitted of the murders in 1995, but he was found liable for $33 million in a civil lawsuit filed by the victims' families in 1997. The Goldman family collected only a small part of the award, and Ron Goldman's father, Fred Goldman, is also unlikely to recover much from the estate, report the Los Angeles Times, WATE and the Associated Press. The estate is valued at less than $600,000, and administrative expenses and an IRS debt must be paid first.

A gold pocket watch that belonged to a man who died onboard the Titanic when it sank has sold for a record sum. The watch, which belonged to 67-year-old Isidor Straus, went for 1.78m at auction, the highest amount ever paid for Titanic memorabilia. He was given the watch an engraved 18-carat Jules Jurgensen as a gift on his 43rd birthday in 1888.
