I didn't find much online information about Judge Goldstein, despite the fact that he had a long and productive career, retiring from the bench in 1956. He was active in New York welfare and juvenile justice issues. Shortly before his death (1967) he wrote an article arguing for decriminalization of drug use as a way to divert people away from jail and into treatment. A Republican, Goldstein lost the 1945 mayoral race to Democrat William O'Dwyer. One thing struck me odd: Judge Goldstein's full name was JONAH JAMISON Goldstein. He was well-known in New York. Could Stan Lee have liked the sound of the name and used it for J. JONAH JAMESON?

They talk about having 8 children in a three room flat and poverty causing crime, but today we don’t have poverty like that, yet crime in the big cities is worse than ever. The problem is, “poverty“ will never be wiped out because poverty is RELATIVE. Some people always have more than others, and those people who have less will feel that they are living in “poverty.“ If you allow that as an excuse for crime, then crime never gets solved. I’m afraid Mr. Goldstein’s thinking was part of the problem, not the solution.

I'd bet real money this is where the name J. Jonah Jameson came from. Especially because although he was a judge, he was a famous crusader, focused on some of the very areas where Stan Lee and Jack Kirby grew up or lived. Ditko not so much - the original Spider-Man's life was that of Ditko, who went to Forest Hills HS himself for a time, just like Spider-Man's alter ego.
