Rodney King

In The Thin Dead Line, Rondell says, “All right, look, all I’m saying is, you gotta let me get set up so they don’t see me with this [camcorder]. Cops see me with this and there’s no way we’re gonna Rodney King them.” He’s referring to a shocking incident in 1991 in which an amateur cameraman video-taped four Los Angeles police officers arresting and beating an African-American named Rodney King. When they were exonerated, L. A. erupted in riots.
