Via TMZ, confirmed by CNN, troubled Bad Boy Forever Rodney King, at age 47, left the world in a fairly bizarre manner. Possibly drunk and buzzed on weed, a nude King was heard by his fiancee', Cynthia Kelley, loudly banging on a glass door (or window, depending on who is reporting) from the outside, yelling, and then the next thing she heard was a Splash sound into the pool. Next we know, he is discovered at the bottom of the pool and she is calling 911. Less than an hour later he is pronounced dead from what the police say is "drowning" with no indications of "foul play".
Huh? No Foul Play just because there are no marks on his body? Why was he outside at 5:00 nude, anyway? And why would he bang on a door/window unless he was locked-out? I mean, I'm not saying his fiancee' did anything to him...I'm simply asking questions out loud, as it were, that I'm sure other people are thinking right about now.
Now I just read new info that Kelley said she had been talking to him outside before she returned inside their home and heard the "splash." What's the real timeline, here?
Did he fall into the pool on his own volition? Was he pushed and fell into the pool by accident? Ah, am I stirring up a conspiracy by even suggesting such a thing? Naw. Chances are we are to believe (and it may be the exact truth) that he was too drunk and high to retain his balance and had been wandering around outside pre-dawn and went into some kind of drunken tirade and banged the glass door (or whatever it was) and growled-screamed loudly to no one in particular and then possibly backed-up from wherever he had been standing, lost his balance, fell in the pool, got a mouth/nose-full of water and drowned as he was too drunk to save himself?
Yeah. Something like that, right?
An investigation of sorts will surely tell us more, particularly after the autopsy report comes in.
Meanwhile, my sleuthy mind thinks Ms. Kelley might have some 'splainin' to do. You know, naked fiancee' banging on doors at an odd hour and ending-up at the bottom of a pool? If they just had a fight and she locked him out until he sobered-up, everyone would understand. Even if they couldn't get along?
Rodney King's cliche'-ridden "trouble-like" moniker is not and should not be his legacy despite continued problems with police and alcohol. A simple guy who messed-up a lot said it best: "Can we all get along?" That sentence went a long way to curb the riots and to this day is still one of the best statements for peace I've ever heard. So basic. So real.
RIP Rodney King.
