NOTE: The above JBBQ song's description cites "rogue LAPD" involved in the Rodney King beating. This refers to a few Los Angeles Police who were later brought to trial with some found guilty and others found innocent. Riots followed the Los Angeles Trial. It was during the LA Riots that Mr. King made his world famous television plea for Peace: "Can we all just get along?" After a much troubled life, Rodney King died tragically in a swimming pool accident on June 17, 2012.
