hh5 Posted June 17, 2012 Posted June 17, 2012 he's a victim of a beating in 1991. addiction maybe a byproduct of recovering from the beating ... ow... I don't know too much about his life history n addiction Addiction is deadly. Don't be afraid to get help.
Arpeggio Posted June 17, 2012 Author Posted June 17, 2012 He had been drinking prior to drowning in a pool earlier today. I'm not an expert on Rodney King, but back in high school, I remember reading that he had been drunk during the beating, and I know he was in Celebrity Rehab.
Bill W Posted June 17, 2012 Posted June 17, 2012 The alchohol addiction came prior to the beating. It was claimed that his blood alcohol level was twice the legal limit the night he was stopped, after a high-speed chase, but that didn't justify the beating the police gave him afterward. My his afterlife be kinder to him than his life.
VictoryPanda Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 From what I understand, Rodney King is a great example of the justice systems abuse, but as a person... Not so great. Before he was attacked, he himself attacked a Korean store owner for money. No one deserves death or what happened to him. RIP.
