L.A Riots: Rodney King 1991-1992


Around 1991-92 Rodney King, a construction work, was beaten by four police officers while a few others watched on a Los Angeles express way. The officers where trialed and their acquittal, judgment that a person is not guilty of the crime they're being charged of, made the city erupted in excessive violence which killed 50 people and caused $1 billon in damages.
 Rodney didn't want the riots to go on and he wanted everyone to get along.
