King had long struggled with drugs and alcohol. He called himself a recovering addict but had not stopped drinking, and possessed a doctor's clearance for medical marijuana. King last year appeared on VH1’s "Celebrity Rehab," trying to tackle his fight with alcoholism.

King was drunk and unarmed when he was pulled over for speeding by Los Angeles Police Department officers and beaten.

The incident was captured on video by a civilian bystander, and the recording became an instant international sensation. Four of the officers were tried for excessive force. Their acquittal on April 29, 1992, touched off one of the worst urban riots in U.S. history.

"It felt like I was an inch from death," he said, describing what it was like to be struck by batons and stung by Tasers.

A jury acquitted the four police officers in the beating of King, unleashing an onslaught of pent-up anger. There were 54 riot-related deaths and nearly $1 billion in property damage as the seams of the city blew apart.

This was the beginning of the enforcement of Political Correctness by Special Interest Groups, also known as "Minorities". 

A husband/wife California Highway Patrol unit noticed the car Rodney was driving because it had expired tabs, meaning the registration was not up to date. The team attempted to stop Rodney, intending to write a "Fix-it" ticket. Rodney was intoxicated on PCP. (YEAH, I know. You are going to say" But his tests came back negative". However, as another CHP Officer, I was a Drug Recognition Expert -DRE- certified by the National Highway Transportation Administration. I had also had an experience with several on PCP, one who took 13 Law Enforcers to take him down, basically by Gang Tackling him. ) 

Rodney knew if he stopped, they would notice that, which was a violation of his Parole

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.

At the time, ALL law enforcers were instructed NOT to wrestle subjects appearing to be on PCP. The only approved method to subdue was the PR-24 baton. 
After the Los Angeles District Attorney was goaded into prosecuting the officers filmed, they were tried. But, at the same time, Rodney King was NOT indicted.
The Special Interests, not content with a finding of a judge and jury, cornered GHW Bush when he came to town to start his re-election campaign. To pacify them, GHW Bush promised to set the FBI after the Officers, which he did. They were charged with "Violation of Rodney King's CIVIL RIGHTS" which is a catch-all charge, kind of like "Conduct Unbecoming", but this one carries a prison sentence.
The damage did not stop there. The Husband Wife team were given Written Reprimands for not timely informing their Supervisor--A Sergeant-- of the event. Their Sergeant was given Days Off for "Not initiating an administrative Inquiry" Their Lieutenant was interrogated, had a hear attack and medically retired. Their Captain also got Days Off for "Not initiating an Administrative Inquiry" . New rules came down from CHP HQ. One was that, if you, the CHP Officer saw a member of an allied agency (Another Police Dept) using brutality, you the Officer were to inform that Law Enforcer that he/she was being brutal, then, at the soonest opportunity, inform your immediate superior of what you had observed. (At  which time, you would be also required to document this in a Memo) 
To me view, this was a step toward electing Barack Obama. 
You see, in both cases.the general public and the Media both ignored all the sins of King and Obama, and focused only on their race. Race gave them both a pass.
