Rodney King Incident
Review the Rodney King Incident (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodney_King) and think about how the violence perpetrated on King could have been predicted and perhaps prevented. Then suggest a set of workable alternatives to the use of deadly force that today’s police forces might effectively use in their confrontation with violent individuals. You may give some consideration to the findings of the Christopher Commission (http://www.hrw.org/legacy/reports/reports98/police/uspo73.htm), charged with examining the use of force on King.
