‘90 Day Fiancé’ alum's boyfriend on trial for attempted murder over wild ‘Boca Bash’ accusations

Charges upgraded from domestic battery to attempted second-degree murder after a 20-minute struggle during the Boca Bash boat party, prosecutors said.

  • On Thursday, Palm Beach County prosecutors are trying Goldberg, charged with attempted second-degree murder after the April 24, 2022 Boca Bash incident, which was upgraded over a year later.
  • Reports indicate the couple had been dating for about a year, and Goldberg was initially charged with domestic battery by strangulation after a heated argument at Boca Bash.
  • Witnesses said he held Caroline Schwitzky by her throat 'in a complete rage' until bystander Matt Paris intervened, and Schwitzky testified the roughly 20-minute struggle made her 'thought I was going to die'.
  • Goldberg rejected the deal and chose a bench trial before Circuit Judge John Parnofiello, refusing a plea requiring six months in jail, and the case remains open and on hold pending trial outcome.
  • She filed a civil lawsuit within six months, and the charge was upgraded more than a year after the incident; Schwitzky has 86,000 Instagram followers and is a former '90 Day Fiancé' cast member.
