The beating of Rodney King by LAPD officers in 1991, led to widespread riots when the officers were acquitted, though King did win a civil suit and was compensated with nearly $4 million for the attack and permanent brain injury he suffered.
King has had a history of substance abuse problems, appearing on celebrity reality-television shows where he did battle with the bottle. According to TMZ, King was also arrested in 2003 for DUI after speeding through an intersection at over 100mph and crashing into a utility pole.
