Rodney King, born on April 2, 1965, in Sacramento, CA, has an estimated net worth of $1.25 million as of 2024. He gained prominence when he became a central figure in one of the most controversial cases of police brutality in American history. In 1991, his brutal beating by Los Angeles police officers was caught on video and sparked widespread outrage and protests. Despite being awarded a settlement in a civil lawsuit against the city of Los Angeles, King faced numerous personal challenges throughout his life. Nonetheless, his net worth stands as a testament to his resilience and continued relevance.
At the conclusion of a high-speed chase, he suffered an excessive beating at the hands of LAPD police officers, which catalyzed the 1992 LA riots.
He stole $200 during a robbery and was caught, convicted, and sentenced to two years behind bars, although he only served one and was released in December of 1990.
His famous quote was "Can we all get along?"
He was married to Danetta Lyles from 1985 to 1988 and Crystal Waters from 1989 until 1996. He was also in a relationship with Cynthia Kelley from 2010 until his death. He had three daughters. His parents were Ronald King and Odessa King.
He was in an episode of Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew in October of 2008.
