Great Philosopher,” Rodney King, dead at 47

LOS ANGELES — Rodney G. King, whose beating in 1991 by the police was captured on video and led to riots in Los Angeles the next year after officers involved in the case were acquitted, was found dead early Sunday in his home about 50 miles east of here, police officials said.

Recently, Texas Congresswoman, Sheila Jackson Lee made reference to King, as “that great philosopher.”
