OJ? Sus but so is this.
Murder of Michael Nigg - Wikipedia
The
Los Angeles County District Attorney's office prosecuted Simpson for the killings of Goldman and Simpson's ex-wife,
Nicole Brown Simpson, based on the theory that Simpson, who had had a history of
domestic violence with her, had acted in a fit of rage upon realizing that she was not going to return to him. Simpson, according to his lawyers, believed that the two had been killed over their involvement in drug dealing in the area, and that other murders at the time were carried out for the same reason. He
speculated that Nicole had been planning to open a restaurant of her own using proceeds from
cocaine sales. Mezzaluna Trattoria, where she ate her last meal, and where both Nigg and Goldman had worked, was reportedly a nexus for drug trafficking in
Brentwood.

Authors
Donald Freed and Raymond Briggs claimed in
Killing Time (1996), their book about the Simpson case, that an unnamed source told them that while Nigg had lived in
Colorado, he was known to law enforcement there to be "involved in the narcotics culture" in
Aspen (where another branch of Mezzaluna is located) and
Denver.
[6] According to journalist Joseph Bosco, who had a reserved seat at the entire trial, Nigg "lived beyond his apparent means", driving a Mercedes and living in a luxury condominium while ostensibly deriving most of his income from waiting tables and occasional low-level acting jobs.
[5] Freed and Briggs, among others, have also observed that the circumstances of the killing seem to suggest the assailants' true intent was to kill Nigg rather than rob him.
[7][9] Moreover, Nigg and Goldman were not the only Mezzaluna waiters who had fallen victim to foul play around that time: two others were
missing, and a third had his car destroyed by fire in
Corona del Mar in 1994
