Rodney King just died - drowning.

Historical figure because of the riots in the early 1990s.

Most famous quote: "Can't ya'll just get along."

The swimming pool is probably going to get away with it too. Sickening.

Re: Rodney King just died - drowning.

His 2nd most famous quote: "Can't we all just get along?"

Saw him on Dr. Drew's Celebrity Rehab show a few years ago and he seemed like a chill guy. Actually sad to hear about this. He was addicted to alcohol and obviously had some demons and real issues with the beating he took. Seemed like a good guy - really bad driver though.

RIP Rodney.

Scores double in some death pools if they die in a pool.

Re: Rodney King just died - drowning.

This is really weird b/c I was just reading his wiki page a couple weeks ago (I remember seeing the part about his thoughts on Trayvon Martin) and now he's dead. I also was reading up on Henry Hill like 3 days before he died. I don't even read many bios on wiki but sometimes when I am reminded of someone I'll peruse it and see what they're up to.

Just checked my history. I guess watch out Ricky Gervais and Webb Simpson.

Re: Rodney King just died - drowning.

According to our sources, King's fiancée, Cynthia Kelley, is telling friends King was at the house all day drinking, and he smoked marijuana at some point, before she went to bed at 2:00 AM.

We're told Kelley says she next saw King at around 5:00 AM when she was awoken by him screaming in the backyard. Our sources say Kelley found King naked, banging on the glass, and she called out to him, "What's wrong, Rodney?"

Kelley is telling friends she then went to grab her phone when she heard a big splash. She then went to the backyard and discovered him in the bottom of the pool and called police.
