Riots, was pronounced dead Sunday morning after an alleged drowning in his California pool. He was 47. Police are reporting no foul play in King's death, but then again, this is the same state who found the four police offers who almost beat him to death in 1991 not guilty, so maybe they are just glad to see the job finished.

There are several facts about the way King died that just don't add up.

Riots documentary on VH1? It’s a documentary narrated by Snoop Dogg about the Rodney King Beating that took place 20 years ago. The unique spin on the documentary is that it examines how the incident had an affect on Hip-Hop in both negative and positive ways from then until now. Other artists in the film included Nas, the late Eazy-E and Ice-T.
