Dr. Drew Pinsky comments on the passing of Rodney King who he first treated in 2008 on the second season of “Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew” at the Pasadena Recovery Center. The videotaped beating of a helpless King by Los Angeles Police officers sparked the 1992 LA riots which resulted in 53 deaths and nearly $1 billion in damages.
The L.A. Times reports that autopsy was conducted Monday.
Our thoughts and prayers are with King’s friends and family.
