A man linked to a reality TV personality from “90 Day Fiancé” is on trial this week, accused of attempting to murder her during a boating trip in South Florida.
Cole Goldberg, who initially faced charges of domestic battery by strangulation, now confronts an upgraded charge of attempted second-degree murder. This change came over a year after the reported incident, as stated by the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office.
Authorities report that Goldberg and Caroline Schwitzky, 32, became embroiled in a fierce argument on April 24, 2022, while attending the “Boca Bash,” an annual boat party. At that time, they had been in a relationship for roughly a year.

Cole Goldberg is accused of attempting to strangle and drown Caroline Schwitzky, a star from “90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?” according to the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office.
As Schwitzky tried to flee the boat, Goldberg allegedly used forceful tactics to restrain her, according to a police report accessed by Law&Crime.

Schwitzky, the CEO of Miami talent agency Urge and a mom of three, allegedly punched Goldberg’s arms to free herself during the struggle, which lasted roughly 20 minutes. She jumped into the water to swim to a nearby boat, a witness told authorities.
Goldberg went after her and allegedly tried to drown her. A bystander named Matt Paris jumped in and intervened.

Schwitzky appeared on “90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?” in 2016 as talent agent to Paola Mayfield.
According to CourtTV, prosecutors offered Goldberg a plea agreement that would have required him to serve six months in jail and three years of probation, as well as write a 500-word letter of apology. He turned down the offer, saying he would not accept a plea to a felony.
