I would make a joke about Rodney King, but they've already been beaten to death.

I see what you did there...... thats funny and from a cop thats rep worthy

[Tydeeh22]

he might of been murdered but really from what i know about it him..... getting drunk/stoned and drowning in the pool isnt far fetched either

It was Friday night and he was in L.A. maybe he went out clubbin'?

but his toxicology came back clean.

As of 10 minutes ago:

De Anda said he did not see any drug paraphernalia "or anything that would indicate that Mr. King was intoxicated" at the scene, but a toxicology screen would be performed.

Rodney King dead at 47 - CNN.com

Do you have a link that says something different? My apologies if I somehow missed it in the OP's link.

 

[GBuck]

Idk why everyone tries to cite toxicology reports so quickly. It happened when Whitney died too. They usually take about 6 weeks.

I believe Reginald Denny could say a thing or two about 'clubbin' in that community!

As for Rodney King, in my reckoning, he is the poster child for a life tragically wasted albeit punctuated by 15 minutes of dubious fame. I can't say that I harbor any particular rancor toward him, but he lived and died demonstrating that protecting the stupid from themselves is a fool's errand, and that no amount of money can stop a hoodlum from being a hoodlum.

6 weeks sounds about right, but why? What is the difference between a toxicology report and a simple blood draw which takes nowhere near that long?

yea why does it take that long?

when someone shows up at my wifes ER it doesnt take 6 weeks?

i misunderstand half the stuff i hear. perhaps it was about his supposed "clean" past few months that he has had in his battle against addiction. who knows.. my new rule is if you are a celebrity, you probably do drugs. charlie sheen is still my hero.
