does this mean the police tape the wedding?

That and it becomes national news if the judge follows through with his explicit orders not to share information out of the black box.

Rodney King looks like the singer for Hootie and the Blowfish.

well don't that just beat all...

$3.8 mil will buy a lot of PCP.

Ya..im sure that she would have fallen in love with a crack head drunkard with a rap sheet if he didnt have all that money

The catering for the wedding will be paid for as soon as Rodney King is tazered and sues the cops for $4 million.

They really get along.

a source close to the couple reported that during a dinner outing, Kelley whispered to King, "I want you NOW. Let's beat it." Upon hearing "beat it" King curled up in the fetal position and remained unresponsive for the better part of ten minutes.

I'm afraid this won't last too long.

..with "you'd hit it" pic?

(seriously, why does he have a huge knot on his head all these years later? was it permanent?)

/too soon?
//not LAPD

Haters. I for one am going to call and congratulate him.

(213) pound pound pound - pound pound pound pound

Bit'O'Gristle: Ya..im sure that she would have fallen in love with a crack head drunkard with a rap sheet if he didnt have all that money

I dont know.

That money is probably long gone anyway.

Rodney may have found the right girl after all.

I banged a girl who gave me a free taco once. It was only in good taste. Giggity

Adolf Oliver Nipples: Try using one with a URL that every person

Yeah, I haven't RR'ed in a bit. Didn't recognize this URL. Plus I'm jacked up on sudafed.

Mudflap: $3.8 mil will buy bought a lot of PCP.

It's gone, man.

Farkin' Rodney King, how does he work?

Stoj: Holy nose, Batman!

It's almost as wide as her mouth.



I should not have laughed at that, but I did.

I move for a bad court thingy.

One of my filthy secrets is a fondness for Celebrity Rehab (altho I quit watching when famewhore Dr Drew put Heidi Fleiss and Tom Sizemore on the same season) and Rodney seems like a great guy. He's still a mess from that beating, seriously, it's amazing he wasn't killed that night. He really deserves more than 3 million dollars and all of the happiness in the world. Those cops deserve nightly nightstick rapings sans lube.

Man. Getting his ass beat turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to that guy.

I know the dickhead cops didn't go to jail, but I really, really hope Rodney rolls by them in a Mercedes with $8000 rims every weekend and waves with a big smile on his face.

Can't we all just get along $3.8 mil ?

They all look like the singer from Hootie and the Blowfish. Amirite?

Q: Whats a winning hand when LAPD cops get together and play poker?

A: Four Clubs beat a King!

Yep, this is how it works.

Ass whooping don't work:

King's Trouble with the Law Prior to His Beating
July 27, 1987: According to a complaint filed by his wife, King beat her while she was sleeping, then dragged her outside the house and beat her again. King was charged with battery and pleaded "no contest." He was placed on probation and ordered to obtain counseling. He never got the counseling.

November 3, 1989: King, brandishing a tire iron, ordered a convenience store clerk to empty the cash register. The clerk grabbed the tire iron, causing King to fall backwards and knock over a pie rack. King swung the rack at the clerk and fled the store with $200. King was arrested and charged with assault with a deadly weapon, second-degree robbery, and intent to commit great bodily injury. In a plea agreement, King pleaded guilty to the robbery charge and the other charges were dropped. He was sentenced to two years in prison, but was paroled on December 27, 1990.
The Arrest of Rodney King on March 3, 1991
March 3, 1991: After being seen speeding on the 210 freeway by CHP officers, King led them on a chase at speeds estimated at up to 110 to 115 mph. When finally stopped, King refused requests to get into the prone position and appeared to charge one of the officers. He was beaten and arrested. King was charged with felony evading. Charges were later dropped.
King's 3/3/91 Arrest Record
King's Trouble with the Law After March 3, 1991
May 11, 1991: King was pulled over for having an excessively tinted windshield. Although King was driving without a license and his car registration had expired, King was not charged.

May 28, 1991: King picked up a transvestite prostitute in Hollywood who happened to be under surveillance by LAPD officers. King and the prostitute were observed in an alley engaging in sexual activity. When the prostitute spotted the officers, King sped away, nearly hitting one of them. King later explained that he thought the vice officers were robbers trying to kill him. No charges were filed.

June 26, 1992: King's second wife reported to police that King had hit her and she feared for her life. King was handcuffed and taken to a police station, but his wife then decided against pressing charges.

July 16, 1992: King was arrested at 1:40 A.M. for driving while intoxicated. No charges were filed.

August 21, 1993: King crashed into a wall near a downtown Los Angeles nightclub. He had a blood alcohol level of 0.19. King was charged with violating his parole and sent for sixty day to an alcohol treatment center. He was also convicted on the DUI charge and ordered to perform twenty days of community service.

May 21, 1995: King was arrested for DUI while on a trip to Pennsylvania. King failed field sobriety tests, but refused to submit to a blood test. He was tried and acquitted.

July 14, 1995: King got into an argument with his wife while he was driving, pulled off the freeway and ordered her out of the car. When she started to get out, King sped off, leaving her on the highway with a bruised arm. King was charged with assault with a deadly weapon (his car), reckless driving, spousal abuse, and hit-and-run. King was tried on all four charges, but found guilty only of hit-and-run driving.

March 3, 1999: King allegedly injured the sixteen-year-old girl that he had fathered out of wedlock when he was seventeen, as well as the girl's mother. King was arrested for injuring the woman, the girl, and for vandalizing property. King claimed that the incident was simply "a family misunderstanding."

September 29, 2001: King was arrested for indecent exposure and use of the hallucinogenic drug PCP.

Rodney King is a victim of the system. Pray for him.

I hope she beats his ass. Then he'll sue her.

This isn't exactly the ball and chain he deserves, but hey, it's close enough.

Can't we just all get a loan?

Lanny Budd: Can't we just all get a loan?

Excellent !

Oh good gawd, I thought it said Larry King.

I was pretty young when that all happened - junior high probably. All I remember was some black guy getting beat by the evil white cops and how horrible racism is (and that it still exists in the US).

I would have agreed with you.....until.....I actually did some research on the subject.

First, in Nov 1989 he used a tire iron to rob and assault a store clerk. He was sentenced to two years in prison.

The infamous beating took place on March 2nd, 1991. You do the math....this guy who beat and robbed a store clerk with a tire iron can't go six months without another run-in with the law. I don't know the exact dates of his incarceration....but come'on. Seriously?

It didn't start with a bunch of white cops patrolling for a black guy to beat (as I was lead to believe). It started with Rodney King, a convicted violent criminal, driving drunk down the middle of the road.

The state troopers attempted to pull him over and he fled. He even admitted later that, a DUI (because he knew he was painfully drunk - 0.19 BAC) would violate his parole. The pursuit reached speed of nearly 120 mph and as much as 50mph in residential areas.

I thought it was just some friendly black guy out for a stroll - but....not so much.

King wasn't alone in the car - there were two passengers. You can Google and find their skin color if you want (hint - it's black). Since I was told this was all about race; I don't understand why the cops didn't beat all three of the black folk. But yeah, the other two blacks guy - they didn't resist. They were taken into custody without the use of any force.

King, a convicted violent criminal who lead a high speed chase through residential neighborhoods while exceedingly drunk (and tests would later show, also high), resisted arrested.

In 93 he was drunk driving again and crashed his car.
In 95 he was convicted of hit and run
In 03 he was arrested for speeding and running a red-light with under the influence of alcohol. He broke his pelvis when he crashed his car into SOMEONE'S HOUSE.

This is not a guy that deserves 3.8 million dollars. By Fark standards/e-tough guy accounts; he deserved to be beaten to death by those cops. He's a real d-bag.

I'm not saying the cops are any better but yeah - this guy is a piece of trash.

And all the retards to used it as a reason to smash windows and steal a new TV; are equally trash.

In LA, I was talking to this Hispanic girl about 20 and mentioned the riots. Her response was "what riots??" She had never heard of Rodney King either. Was it really that long ago?

Sheesh, do the math, Einstein. Close to 2 decades ago. A 20 year old would have been about 2 during the '92 riots.

That's a lot of twos.

Now I feel old.

jehovahs witness protection: In two years, he'll take a beating in divorce court.

Here's hoping...

All she has to do is make sure he spends as little as possible, that it all goes into "retirement funds for when we're old".

Were this guy's priors made known to the public before the police trial? I don't remember realizing King was such a piece of detritus at the time . . .

1. Generally be a waste of skin your whole life
2. Resist a lawful arrest
3. Profit!
