Rodney King dead at 47
Rodney King, who became the face of the LA riots when he was mercilessly beaten by LAPD cops in 1991 has died.
Unbelievably, none of the 4 LAPD officers who brutally attacked King were found guilty, despite a video that was seen nationwide. It wasn’t just black people that were targeted by the LAPD. Reginald Denny a while truck driver was pulled out of his truck by several black men and beaten nearly to death. He required surgery to repair his shattered skull, reset his jaw and put one eye back into its socket and suffers complications from the savage beating to this day.
Right now, authorities are saying there is no evidence of foul play and are investigating Rodney King’s death as a possible drowning.
Rodney King after being beaten by LAPD
The details are really odd about just what happened to Rodney King. Most of the reports are saying his fiance, Cynthia Kelley, found him at the bottom of the pool at 5:25am and called police.
TMZ is reporting that according to their source, Cynthia Kelley was telling friends that Rodney was drinking and smoking
weed all day. She claims that she went to bed around 2am and then woke up at 5am when she heard him screaming in the backyard. He was naked and she yelled out, “What’s wrong, Rodney?”. Then she went to call the police (???) but wait . . . she then heard a big splash – – so she looked back out without going outside, saw him at the bottom of the pool and then she went back to the phone and called the police.
Why the heck didn’t she go out there after him instead of letting him lay in the pool and die? ???
If that is true, my God what is wrong with her? Can you imagine living with your partner, hearing them screaming and all you dot is give a shout out asking, What’s wrong, honey? Wouldn’t you go our and help them? Now I know maybe some of you are going to say she was scared. well if she was so scared of him, wtf was she doing with him? Could it be all the money he received in the civil case. there were rumors too that he wanted to end the relationship.
I’m pretty sure we will never get the true story on this one.
