Anyone can sleep
in the street.
You took him home.
He is crazy...
Stay away from me!
No, no! Leave him alone!
Leave him alone!
When it happens, he locks
himself for three, four days.
We could not buy anything!
Kenny!
Hey, Kenny, Kenny, Kenny.
I need beer, Kenny.
I'm going to kill the first asshole,

Come on, let's go.
We will.
Oh, that is nice.
So nice.
Cool shit.
You can call your mother.
Whatever.
It's the only white
in the neighborhood.
Thanks.
How are you? Hi!
the cop who did the most blows,
with the nightstick at Rodney King.
Using recording and
broadcasting, police radio,
prosecutors claim, that Powell
laughed after it happened.
and asked us questions
about Latasha.
They refused,
showing us the picture...
oh she lying on the floor,
bleeding to death.
Come on, let's go!
He puts his foot down
and loses balance.
Mr. Briseno lost,
the balance.
Mr. White said
that this is a stomp,
an unnecessary stomp.
He used his left foot,
your weak foot.
Unlike Mr. Wind,
He used his weak foot.
He is right-handed. Now.
As police officer Briseno
Could you stop that beating?
How could he do that?
He could do that using
the foot instead of the hand.
He has to keep his head
away from the attack zone.
"Describe the action or verb
in one sentence ".
Right.
Now describe a verb.
A verb is action,
in one sentence.
He would do that if he
wanted harm Mr. King?
I would use weak feet if
I wanted harm Mr. King?
I would do that if I wanted to,
use unnecessary force?
Is that something
he would do?
What about his size?
Dude, you need to shut up!
Get out of here!
Come back home.
Madam, come back inside.
There will never be peace,
to no one!
Turn off this lawyer!
We have a white in the
neighborhood and he is going crazy.
He kicked him like he was,
a professional soccer player?
Come home, sir!
Unlike Mr. Wind,
used the weak foot.
What is it?
Make up anything!
They will be arrested.
It's all recorded.
Does he look like a dwarf?
Yes, compared to Mr. King.
I want Millie.
Are you afraid of him?
Of course, they are heavy.
I swear to god! Get out!
Go away! I also
know how to make noise!
Go away, man!
Alright, there it is!
Ready!
Oh my gosh! My God!
My God!
He is destroying
Did you see that?
It's a barricade!
Stop or you will be arrested!
Want some more?
Yes.
Want some of this?
It's?
No, no, no.
He heard the terrible sound.
Metal against meat.
Hi Jess.
Give me a minute.
What's it? Jesse!
What are you doing there?
What are you doing?
Anything. Is not
stealing it, are you?
No one would steal this.
Hey, hey, hey.
Stop! Come back here!
Never!
Not in this life or the next.
It is the worst
market in the city.
Return what you stole!
I didn't steal anything.
So we have,
a Soon Ja Du here?
A Soon Ja...
What?
If you touch her,
Will not return home.
It's.
I'm with them, did you say?
Okay, don't come back
of me, or they'll be mad.
They can come.
Bye.
But what to do!
Thanks.
So are you with us?
I am.
I am Ed. Nicole.
Want to drink some?
Clear.
I think this business is weak,
so I better drink more.

It is weak today.
Whiskey drives me crazy.
There's nothing wrong,
thereby.
And all these bags?
This is all I own.
Why are you walking,

I wanted to be killed,
but it hasn't rolled yet.
Wait, you don't have

She is a very beautiful girl.
No, she is wonderful.
Which is? Just look at you.

There is an effort in Los Angeles,
to overturn a judge
by a controversial decision,
in the murder of a teenager.
"LATASHA HARLINS JUSTICE"
Judge Joyce Karlin contends
Du is not a criminal.
I know a criminal,
When I see one.
I can identify someone
that represents a danger,
to the community.
We will! We will!
Wait!
Where did you get that?
Buy your toilet!
It's my girlfriend.
William!
William, come on.
Hang on. I caught.
Did you really?
Yes.
Ready? Yes, done.
The guy was walking,
with this.
I really want to take you,
to bed.
And then, at 3:52,
watch what we see.
At 3:52 pm, we see
Mr. King still moving,
much taller,
that a bending position.
He turns around...
He turns his head.
We see Tim Wind do,
a move with the nightstick
and when Mr. King's head,
enter that area
of the movement...
He is saying that Rodney King
hit the nightstick with his face?
Want me to break
these guys?
I'll charge you for that.
He's in, Now that
you have a gun.
Yeah, the boy is finding
himself Heavy bar now.
Really. It's beautiful, love.
Wow, I loved it.
Give me the gun.
They are in court.
Stop it.
look at the bottom
of Mr. King's torso.
Let's kill Soon Ja Du.
Why everyone in town
want to kill this soon...
I don't know what?
Are you new to Los Angeles?
Soon Ja Du.
She killed Latasha,
for taking an orange juice.
Want to get my orange juice?
What?
What the fuck?
Latasha has died.
Still gonna put a bullet
in my heart.
While I'm dying...
It will not happen again.
Now we are in favor
to kill Soon Ja Du?
I thought about shooting her.
The best thing to do
That's what we want.
I would not shoot her.
Why not?
Do not know.
Let me know when you know.
What did you guys take?
We do not kill others.
Nor should we talk about it.
Why? Soon Ja Du exploded,
that girl's brains.
Now she's fine,
in some park.
Hang on. That woman,
wasn't arrested? Do not.
Really?
They said the prison
would hurt her.
We are arrested for anything.
They want to put us seven feet apart.
Do you stumble? Do not.
Killing is a crime.
Anything interesting is.
Speaks seriously. I...
Latasha was important.
Kill someone,
It would be the biggest ass.
Yeah, we shouldn't explode,
No one's brains.
Listen to her.
But I can explode, her store.
Give me a bottle, fuel,
an absorbent and ready.
Do not.
Get me a coffee.
Don't say these things.
Have you lost your mind?
When it is empty.
Not!
Or I can break those guys.
Look at you. They are
growing and getting beautiful.
No, no, no!
Is this serious?
Not!
Wait and see.
Yeah... stop it.
What is the plan?
Just don't go die.
Let's puncture the tires.
The plan is to break everything.
My plan was to arrive
I live to the year 2000.
Fuck that guy.
Nice to tell Nicole that, but she
hasn't had sex with me yet.
Hey, come here.
Okay, give it to me.
This this. Beauty.

And now!
How are you?
Not good, man.
Let me see.
It hurts?
Just a little.
All right.
Now wiggle your toes.
Does it hurt? A little.
It's bleeding a little.
Are you alright?
I'm hurt.
Stop.
This will hurt.
It was a stupid plan.
It was not even a plan.
Break into a police station?
We are dumb.
Man, it's an eye for an eye.
You push me
I push you.
Is the death.
I am bleeding,
until death.
Look, Nicole. Death!
For. You are a crybaby.
Shit, man. That hurts.
It hurts a lot.
We should take him to a hospital.
No need.
Alright, die!
See if we care.
The jury is still deciding
the case of the four policemen
accused of beating
Rodney King.
It is the sixth day
of deliberations.
The suspense is not unpleasant
just for the defendants.
This case disturbed Los Angeles
since the beginning 13 months ago.
With great chance
acquittal or deadlock
every day of deliberation,
many pastors
from suburbs
encourage their congregations
reacting rightly,
Not with emotion.
Boys! Time to get in!
We're playing!
It's the fifth day the cops
appear at the court of Ventura
and hear that there
is no verdict.
What are you thinking,
Larry?
A lot of things. I'm cheering
for a good result.
Boys! The dinner
of you is getting cold.
Please come in
and help me set the table?
We're almost done!
Girl! Hey, girl! Police.
I am trying to work!
If you don't tell them to
shut up, we're going to slap!
Look, if you don't start anything,
nothing will happen.
Thanks.
No, no.
Let me take care of it.
I thought you guys
wanted to play.
We are done.
But I called three times,
but you said
that they wanted to play.
Now you can play,
until the sun rises.
Do not wait.
No, Millie! Not!
Millie, no!
Let us in!
It will only be for a minute.
To teach them a lesson.
Boys?
Boys?
They hid.
For the first time in the trial,
the issue of racism,
has been introduced.
Powell asked,
about a sent message,
to another officer,
before the incident
by the computer
on board the vehicle.
Referring to the previous call,
that involved African Americans,
Powell typed: "It looked like
the movie In the Gorilla Mountains".
The prosecutor also explored
the meaning behind
from another message
sent later,
of King's apprehension.
Powell, talking to
the same policeman typed:
"Oops. I didn't hit so much,
on someone a long time ago".
All right. Stop, stop.
It's not so bad.
Not the end of the world.
Let someone beat
at the door in your face!
Clear. All right.
Let's see what is
On TV. We will see.
Ready.
Right.
Who is hungry?
Is anyone hungry?
What do we have here?
Have beer, carrots and...
the prosecutor pressed.
Shit. Okay, we
don't need to see this.
We don't need to see this.
Let's put a drawing
here, or something.
Right!
Who wants pizza?
I wrote all this.
No, like...
There were...
No, I can't...
Purple
What? Purple
Cow.
That! That!
I want to see, I want to see,
I want to see.
Sorry to bother,
But my boys are here.
Oh my God!
My God! I searched
for you everywhere.
Why did you leave the yard?
I already said,
you should never

Sorry, Millie.
What? Will report me
for Social Assistance?
Do not.
Hi love.
Hi sweetie.
Whisper something kind,
in my ear.
Say you love it.
I love. I love!
Walk
Come back to me, baby.
Millie, this is a dream.
What? As well?
It's just a dream.
It is not a dream.
Perhaps...
You are mine.
It's just a dream.
You are mine.
This is just a dream.
You...
I can drink milk,
please?
Say you love it.
Come in, Peaches.
Hello?
Hi Angela.

When did you see them?
KNX 1070 Newsradio.
Good afternoon.
It's 22 degrees in Hollywood,
in this cloudy
Wednesday, April 29th.
These are the headlines,
of the day.
As you heard,
on the CBS news,
the four cops,
of the Rodney King case
just haven't been cleared
of an accusation.
The judgement,
was considered null.
Get away!
Millie
Do me a favor.
I can bring the...
What is it?
As well?
What he is doing?
They acquitted the four policemen,
that beat Rodney King.
What did she say, Maria?
The verdict is out.
Considered the four police
officers innocent of all charges.
That's not possible.
You heard?
The bar is heavy on Adams.
There are some guys
facing the police.
The boys here went,
for there.
My God.
Get out of here!
What?
There is an armed
police officer.
As well? Where?
They are after some boys.
Don't go there, they're shooting!
My God, Jesse.
What's it?
Have we lost the fun?
No, no.
Come back inside.
Shawnte is in charge.
I don't want them to leave home.
I don't even want them to leave,
to the backyard, okay?
Stay in there.
I'll be right back.
You're stuck.
You're stuck.
Get in the car.
I need to find,
William and Jesse, but...
They are taking my boys!
Mom, we did nothing.
We did nothing, mom.
What they did?
Why?
Why are you doing this?
What will you do?
Want to kill me?
Will repeat what they did,
with Rodney? It was not him.
He assaulted a police officer.
No, man, I did nothing!
No need to hurt him!
Go back to your homes.
Put your feet on the floor!
Something is happening.
Which is? He did not do anything!
He did something wrong.
He did nothing wrong!
We will!
He did not do anything!
This is wrong!
This is wrong!
Isolate the troublemakers,
from the rest of the group.
They are disrespecting
innocent!
Not! Not! Not!
I did nothing.
You are trying,
take our black boys!
It's not right! Raise.
It's not right! It's not right!
Not! Not! Not!
Not! Not! Not!
Stop resisting!
Not! Not! Not!
Get in the car!
Get in the car! Not!
Not!
Put it in the car.
We are not afraid!
We have guns like them!
Let them out!
Do you call it justice?
I will show you!
They gave the verdict,
from Rodney King.
The four cops,
have been cleared.
Let's fight back on the streets.
Get dressed! Here we go.
They do not have
to pay anything!
Dude, come on!
It's time to fight back. We will!
Rodney King, Latasha,
this is for you!
William!
We have to act!
Let them out!
Help me!
Without justice, no peace!
Without justice, no peace!
Let me out!
Release these people!
Release these people!
I want everyone,
out of here now!

Disregard this call.
We're leaving here,

Hey, stop it! Not! Stop!
Do not go away!
Oh my God.
Ruben! Tiger!
Come down,
come watch the TV!
What's it?
What? What?
Come here.
And look at that.
Who knows if this vehicle,
was stolen?
What? Why are
there so many people?
Hi!
Hello all the good.
See what they are doing.
They look so happy.
Clear.
Grandma, we didn't take your
shoes, but we got other things!
The looters didn't stop.
What has life done to you?
Help me!
In between.
Oh my.
He will lose, all the blood.
Shit.
Ambulances are demanding
police escorts.
We are waiting.
How long is it going to take?
There are many victims.
We are watching on TV.
My friend is dying.
You understand?
He's just a boy
and is dying.
Please. You need to help us.
I do not know what to say.
I got no answer,
from the police now.
Children!
Children!
Children!
I finished my homework,
But I can save the Barbies.
Honey, where are the others?
Down there.
Open the door.
Open the door.
Where are we going
to take you?
Where are we?
Where are the plates? They
took all the signs off the street!
I can not see anything.
I can not see.
Careful, Nicole!
Sorry, sorry.
"TURN LEFT,
OR TAKE A SHOT"
Get out of here!
Sir! Help!
Help us!
Sir! Get out of here!
Get the fuck out of the car!
It's the police station!
Turn around!
We will!
I know.
I will prepare something,
for you to eat.
I know they are hungry.
I'm going to cook
something. I know.
It's ok,
give me just a sec...
Shit. All right.
What is he looking for?
Do not know. Maybe something
to break these shackles.
All right.
I'm coming, my loves.
Just give me a second.
Damn it! Shit!
Come here! Shit!
Shit! Shit!
Not today!
No, you son of a bitch!
Hey, hey, hey... She died,
She died. My God.
Millie, Millie.
Everything is alright.
My boys...
No, no, it's fine.
I thought you were
the wise one.
Come here. C'mon C'mon.
Come, come, come...
I need to find my boys.
Sit here. Sit down.
My babies.
Sit down. All right.
Here, here, here, yes.
I thought it was wise,
But you are crazy.
Now, be still, Because
I've never done this before.
My God. Jesus.
Count to three.
My God!
I got it right!
Oh my God.
I need a beer.
Thanks.
I need to find my boys.
All right.
I need to find the key,
from the car and my boys.
God is my witness,
This will be the end for you.
The double cheeseburger is over,
the grilled chicken burger,
the Big Fish, the Bacon King,
the whopper,
the bacon king
and the cheese whopper.
Now, the circus is yours.
If you burn this Burger King,
we will never build again another
restaurant in this neighborhood.
Say goodbye,
to our nuggets
and the buffalo sauces,
ranch, mustard and barbecue.
Goodbye strawberry sundae,
chocolate vanilla,
with cookies.
You consider the possibility
never to take
caramel sundae,
strawberry
and chocolate, forever!
Free food! Nice!
Where is it...?
Where is the damn hospital?
Hey, hey, excuse me!
How do I get to the hospital?
William!
Go back to Hoover.
South of Hoover.
Where is Hoover?
Turn left.
Please open your eyes!
William!
William!
My God, William!
I don't feel his heart.
What?
I do not...
What? Not!
I don't feel his heart.
Find someone!
That!
And then we saw
two people,
two drivers,
who entered this area.
Both drove trucks.
They were taken
of vehicles and beaten.
Then they were robbed.
When they got up...
When they woke up,
covered in blood
and tried to escape,
were beaten again.
There are no police officers at
the police station
nor on King Avenue.
The Los Angeles Police, has
been ordered to leave this area.
And the Tom's liquor store,
near Normandie and Florence,
It was totally destroyed.
People came in empty handed
and left carrying
liquor boxes...
It was almost,
as if the store owner
had opened the doors
and let the crowd take it all...
Two? Yes.
Where do you live?
Right here.
Why did it? Do not know.
Because it's free!
It's free? It's.
Are they back yet?
Do not.
They are nowhere!
I searched all over the city!
Are here! What?
They are here!
I can use this.
Have you seen something
like this, United States?
These leather shoes?
Check out my shoes,
folks!
How much time,
will this continue?
Until the jury changes
its mind.
Well, there it is.
Alida Van Tijen,

You know you shouldn't
break into someone's store!
Enough!
What is your problem?
Come here!
Ruben! You know you shouldn't
steal stuff from a store!
Oh really? Of all things
that could steal...
Come back Put your
hands on your head.
No, no. We came here
because I saw them doing it!
Not! Pay attention!
I'm telling you to do something.
I am giving an order.
This is crazy.
What is it?
They were looting before
to rob the bank?
Okay, okay.
I asked them to be quiet.
I asked, with education,
to close the nicks.
All right?
Now you are under arrest.
Let's get out.
What?
A policeman needs
reinforcement. Let's go there.
No, no!
No, no!
Shit!
I won't let them get away
with it. Got it?
You are exactly,
what I have been fighting
for against all life!
All right?
And let me
tell them something.
I have a job.
I have a badge.
I have a uniform.
And I'll put you in jail.
All right?
I do not care.
I'll send them to hell
and you will
not get out of there.
Hang on.
Wait a minute.
No, no, no. No, no.
Come back
When are we going home?
Obviously not now!
Get back in the car.
What are you going to do?
All right.
Look here, Tiger.
Want to talk about,

About Christmas?
Christmas? Dude, this is
better, than Christmas!

Do what you want.
But when I get out of here,
I will tear your fingers
off, with bites!
Get in the car now.
Get in the car!

My God.
I do not believe this.
You smoke?

This is a turkey.

A camera filmed,
the fact.
The Shop Owner Soon Ja Du,
thought Latasha Harlins, 15,
I was going to steal
an orange juice.
Du took a gun and shot
at the nape of Harlins.
A jury convicted Du
for willful murder.
A report of pre-sentence
recommended,

But Judge Joyce Karlin
imposed parole,

Anyone can sleep

You took him home.
He is crazy...
Stay away from me!
No, no! Leave him alone!
Leave him alone!
When it happens, he locks
himself for three, four days.
We could not buy anything!
Kenny!
Hey, Kenny, Kenny, Kenny.
I need beer, Kenny.
I'm going to kill the first asshole,
that approaches me!
Mr. you're right!
Shit. See what

Come on, let's go.
We will.
Oh, that is nice.
So nice.
Cool shit.
You can call your mother.
Whatever.
It's the only white
in the neighborhood.
Thanks.
How are you? Hi!
the cop who did the most blows,
with the nightstick at Rodney King.
Using recording and
broadcasting, police radio,
prosecutors claim, that Powell
laughed after it happened.
and asked us questions
about Latasha.
They refused,
showing us the picture...
oh she lying on the floor,
bleeding to death.
Come on, let's go!
He puts his foot down
and loses balance.
Mr. Briseno lost,
the balance.
Mr. White said
that this is a stomp,
an unnecessary stomp.
He used his left foot,
your weak foot.
Unlike Mr. Wind,
He used his weak foot.
He is right-handed. Now.
As police officer Briseno
Could you stop that beating?
How could he do that?
He could do that using
the foot instead of the hand.
He has to keep his head
away from the attack zone.
"Describe the action or verb
in one sentence ".
Right.
Now describe a verb.
A verb is action,
in one sentence.
He would do that if he
wanted harm Mr. King?
I would use weak feet if
I wanted harm Mr. King?
I would do that if I wanted to,
use unnecessary force?
Is that something
he would do?
What about his size?
Dude, you need to shut up!
Get out of here!
Come back home.
Madam, come back inside.
There will never be peace,
to no one!
Turn off this lawyer!
We have a white in the
neighborhood and he is going crazy.
He kicked him like he was,
a professional soccer player?
Come home, sir!
Unlike Mr. Wind,
used the weak foot.
What is it?
Make up anything!
They will be arrested.
It's all recorded.
Does he look like a dwarf?
Yes, compared to Mr. King.
I want Millie.
Are you afraid of him?
Of course, they are heavy.
I swear to god! Get out!
Go away! I also
know how to make noise!
Go away, man!
Alright, there it is!
Ready!

Did you see that?
It's a barricade!
Stop or you will be arrested!
Want some more?
Yes.

He heard the terrible sound.
Metal against meat.
Hi Jess.
Give me a minute.
What's it? Jesse!
What are you doing there?
What are you doing?
Anything. Is not
stealing it, are you?
No one would steal this.
Hey, hey, hey.
Stop! Come back here!
Never!
Not in this life or the next.
It is the worst
market in the city.
Return what you stole!
I didn't steal anything.
So we have,
a Soon Ja Du here?
A Soon Ja...
What?
If you touch her,
Will not return home.
It's.
I'm with them, did you say?
Okay, don't come back
of me, or they'll be mad.
They can come.
Bye.
But what to do!
Thanks.
So are you with us?
I am.
I am Ed. Nicole.
Want to drink some?
Clear.
I think this business is weak,
so I better drink more.
Girl, calm down.
This is whiskey.
Hey, this thing,
It is weak today.
Whiskey drives me crazy.
There's nothing wrong,
thereby.
And all these bags?
This is all I own.
Why are you walking,
with your stuff?
I wanted to be killed,
but it hasn't rolled yet.
Wait, you don't have
a place to stay?
A friend of a friend
said you would let me
stay in the pantry,
but I don't know.
You are beautiful. Yes.
She is a very beautiful girl.
No, she is wonderful.
Which is? Just look at you.
Look at those lips.
Look at me.
Do you like it?
She is a child.
No, man. She is a young lady.
Dude, stop it.
Get out. She is enjoying it.
Right?
You know you go crazy,
any man, right?
What do you think about this?
Want to take a walk?
What do you say?
You can stay at my house.
Come here.
Let me tell you something.
I'll take you home,
You will show me
this round ass,
these hard breasts
and i will fuck you
and you will love it.
Then you will curl up,
the legs around me,
and i will fuck you again
again and again.
Want it?
You need a shower.
Let's go somewhere.
What's up man?
You need a shower.
What?
You're a scrotum, you know that?
What is your problem?
You little bitch!
Now I'm "inha"?
A minute ago, I wanted to
do Sex with me, you pig!
You're stinky crap,

Hey, take it easy,
be calm!
Shut up!
Old perv!
Eddie, stop it, man!
May come! I'll give you,
a beauty of a beating!
You are out of your mind!
You better take it,
this little girl.
Get screwed!
You don't have courage, do you?
No balls?
I bet you don't even have a dick.
Got crazy?
Why should I
be afraid of him?
With who are you talking to?
Go, leave it there.
You have luck. You sucker.
Come on!
I see you. I see you.
Yes.
Good night, sir.
Do you know why I stopped you?
Where my friends,
were?
The whiskey guys.
That was right.
Come on, let's go.
Hang on.
It's the third time,
I'm stopped here.
The headlights are on.
What's it?
License please.
I was dragged on the road.
I stopped.
I was fined, and then a squad
Stopped me at Normandie.
I am not drunk.
I am not black.
What are you doing?
Stop.
Go away.
Do you want to die?
I need a place to sleep
and I'm tired, all right. Yes.
We will.
Close the door!
It's cold out there.
It's gonna be okay.
Alright, you know.
Make room for me.
I would like you to demonstrate
respect for a law enforcement officer.
I do not doubt
but I am unable to do that.
Calm down. Calm calm.
Do you really want
to stay here?
Come on Let's get out of here.
It is not safe out there.
Do not tease me.
Get out of you.
No, no, no.
I'll wait for a beating.
Is that what you want?
Calm. Stay there.
What is happening
back here?
Get out of my car.
I want to go to jail,
reformatory, whatever.
What?
I am surrendering.
I robbed the store.
We decide who goes to jail!
My wife.
Hey, what is this?
What the hell, hey!
We will!
You two, shut up.
Everybody quiet!
I hate this damn job!
Please! I stole it.
I do not want to know.
There are laws against it.

Detained!
You convinced me. Get away.

Shut up.
Wow, look at all this skin.
Dude, get out of here.
She is pretty.
I want to admire her.
It's passed out. You don't
even know What is happening.
Hi.
Hi.
How did I get here?
You do not remember?
Do not.
The last thing I remember,
is to be on the street,
looking to the moon
and she was huge.
I had never seen
Such a big moon.
And, I remember you.
Where's Millie?
She is delivering cakes,
or cutting hair, or sweeping.
We are starving.
Look this. These children
Always want food.
Forget it.
We have a problem.
Millie is stupid and doesn't steal.
We have to act.
Let's go to the market
to get all we want.
If they catch you stealing,
can only approach them
Out of the store.
Right.
William, this is Nicole.
Things are going fast!
Is that so.
Alright, pay attention.
It's ok.
This is perfect for theft.
William, stop it.
What's it?
It's ok.
The apartment will be empty while,
William's mother is under arrest.
You can come and go, but you'll
have to use the side window.
The front door is locked.
Come on, I will help you.
Are you alright? Oh...
You can spit on the floor here.
What the hell is this?
Carter, what's up
going on? Hello.

All right. We will.

Want a chicken taco?
Thanks. Thanks.
Wow, I love chicken.
Hmm, I love to eat.
Want a milkshake?
Would you like?
"Pawn Shop"
The case that doesn't
want to disappear arose,
in a discussion,
In Los Angeles.
I give ten dollars.
A camera
security recorded...
Children, Santa has arrived!
What? Santa Claus?
What's up?
What? Santa Claus?
Give control here!
I won a Nintendo!
Did you steal it?
Do not.
My God.
The Santa Claus you sent.
Jesse... Hi.
Hey! Someone entered
and stole the toilet!
What? On here...
How did they do it?
It has no lock.
And it's just two screws.
The world may never know.
There is an effort in Los Angeles,
to overturn a judge
by a controversial decision,
in the murder of a teenager.
"LATASHA HARLINS JUSTICE"
Judge Joyce Karlin contends
Du is not a criminal.
I know a criminal,
When I see one.
I can identify someone
that represents a danger,
to the community.
We will! We will!
Wait!
Where did you get that?
Buy your toilet!
It's my girlfriend.
William!
William, come on.
Hang on. I caught.
Did you really?
Yes.
Ready? Yes, done.
The guy was walking,
with this.
I really want to take you,
to bed.
And then, at 3:52,
watch what we see.
At 3:52 pm, we see
Mr. King still moving,
much taller,
that a bending position.
He turns around...
He turns his head.
We see Tim Wind do,
a move with the nightstick
and when Mr. King's head,
enter that area
of the movement...
He is saying that Rodney King
hit the nightstick with his face?
Want me to break
these guys?
I'll charge you for that.
He's in, Now that
you have a gun.
Yeah, the boy is finding
himself Heavy bar now.
Really. It's beautiful, love.
Wow, I loved it.
Give me the gun.
They are in court.
Stop it.
look at the bottom
of Mr. King's torso.
Let's kill Soon Ja Du.
Why everyone in town
want to kill this soon...
I don't know what?
Are you new to Los Angeles?
Soon Ja Du.
She killed Latasha,
for taking an orange juice.
Want to get my orange juice?
What?
What the fuck?
Latasha has died.
Still gonna put a bullet
in my heart.
While I'm dying...
It will not happen again.
Now we are in favor
to kill Soon Ja Du?
I thought about shooting her.
The best thing to do
That's what we want.
I would not shoot her.
Why not?
Do not know.
Let me know when you know.
What did you guys take?
We do not kill others.
Nor should we talk about it.
Why? Soon Ja Du exploded,
that girl's brains.
Now she's fine,
in some park.
Hang on. That woman,
wasn't arrested? Do not.
Really?
They said the prison
would hurt her.
We are arrested for anything.
They want to put us seven feet apart.
Do you stumble? Do not.
Killing is a crime.
Anything interesting is.
Speaks seriously. I...
Latasha was important.
Kill someone,
It would be the biggest ass.
Yeah, we shouldn't explode,
No one's brains.
Listen to her.
But I can explode, her store.
Give me a bottle, fuel,
an absorbent and ready.
Do not.
Get me a coffee.
Don't say these things.
Have you lost your mind?
When it is empty.
Not!
Or I can break those guys.
Look at you. They are
growing and getting beautiful.
No, no, no!
Is this serious?
Not!
Wait and see.
Yeah... stop it.
What is the plan?
Just don't go die.
Let's puncture the tires.
The plan is to break everything.
My plan was to arrive
I live to the year 2000.
Fuck that guy.
Nice to tell Nicole that, but she
hasn't had sex with me yet.
Hey, come here.
Okay, give it to me.
This this. Beauty.
Come on, bro.
Get in there.
What is this?
A mortar.
Heck, that's cool.
You are good.
IT'S. Get that knife.
Go Go. We will.
Go! Go! Go.
We will.
Shit.
I want to leave.
Let me finish.
Give it to me.
Let me finish!
We will! Why?
William!
C'mon C'mon!
Fast fast!
Run!
Quickly!
They will shoot us!
Come on
Go...
He ran.
He was shot.
The boy was not shot.
He was hit in the...
Bro, that's...
William is praying to die.
He was shot.
Shut up, man.
Look, William was hit,
by a bullet.
I was not hit, right?
And now!
How are you?
Not good, man.
Let me see.
It hurts?
Just a little.
All right.
Now wiggle your toes.
Does it hurt? A little.
It's bleeding a little.
Are you alright?
I'm hurt.
Stop.
This will hurt.
It was a stupid plan.
It was not even a plan.
Break into a police station?
We are dumb.
Man, it's an eye for an eye.
You push me
I push you.
Is the death.
I am bleeding,
until death.
Look, Nicole. Death!
For. You are a crybaby.
Shit, man. That hurts.
It hurts a lot.
We should take him to a hospital.
No need.
Alright, die!
See if we care.
The jury is still deciding
the case of the four policemen
accused of beating
Rodney King.
It is the sixth day
of deliberations.
The suspense is not unpleasant
just for the defendants.
This case disturbed Los Angeles
since the beginning 13 months ago.
With great chance
acquittal or deadlock
every day of deliberation,
many pastors
from suburbs
encourage their congregations
reacting rightly,
Not with emotion.
Boys! Time to get in!
We're playing!
It's the fifth day the cops
appear at the court of Ventura
and hear that there
is no verdict.
What are you thinking,
Larry?
A lot of things. I'm cheering
for a good result.
Boys! The dinner
of you is getting cold.
Please come in
and help me set the table?
We're almost done!
Girl! Hey, girl! Police.
I am trying to work!
If you don't tell them to
shut up, we're going to slap!
Look, if you don't start anything,
nothing will happen.
Thanks.
No, no.
Let me take care of it.
I thought you guys
wanted to play.
We are done.
But I called three times,
but you said
that they wanted to play.
Now you can play,
until the sun rises.
Do not wait.
No, Millie! Not!
Millie, no!
Let us in!
It will only be for a minute.
To teach them a lesson.
Boys?
Boys?
They hid.
For the first time in the trial,
the issue of racism,
has been introduced.
Powell asked,
about a sent message,
to another officer,
before the incident
by the computer
on board the vehicle.
Referring to the previous call,
that involved African Americans,
Powell typed: "It looked like
the movie In the Gorilla Mountains".
The prosecutor also explored
the meaning behind
from another message
sent later,
of King's apprehension.
Powell, talking to
the same policeman typed:
"Oops. I didn't hit so much,
on someone a long time ago".
All right. Stop, stop.
It's not so bad.
Not the end of the world.
Let someone beat
at the door in your face!
Clear. All right.
Let's see what is
On TV. We will see.
Ready.
Right.
Who is hungry?
Is anyone hungry?
What do we have here?
Have beer, carrots and...
the prosecutor pressed.
Shit. Okay, we
don't need to see this.
We don't need to see this.
Let's put a drawing
here, or something.
Right!
Who wants pizza?
I wrote all this.
No, like...
There were...
No, I can't...
Purple
What? Purple
Cow.
That! That!
I want to see, I want to see,
I want to see.
Sorry to bother,
But my boys are here.
Oh my God!
My God! I searched
for you everywhere.
Why did you leave the yard?
I already said,
you should never
leave the yard.
Sorry, Millie.
What? Will report me
for Social Assistance?
Do not.
Hi love.
Hi sweetie.
Whisper something kind,
in my ear.
Say you love it.
I love. I love!
Walk
Come back to me, baby.
Millie, this is a dream.
What? As well?
It's just a dream.
It is not a dream.
Perhaps...
You are mine.
It's just a dream.
You are mine.
This is just a dream.
You...
I can drink milk,
please?
Say you love it.
Come in, Peaches.
Hello?
Hi Angela.
What?
What do you mean, Jesse
and William, Aren't you in school?
When did you see them?
KNX 1070 Newsradio.
Good afternoon.
It's 22 degrees in Hollywood,
in this cloudy
Wednesday, April 29th.
These are the headlines,
of the day.
As you heard,
on the CBS news,
the four cops,
of the Rodney King case
just haven't been cleared
of an accusation.
The judgement,
was considered null.
Get away!
Millie
Do me a favor.
I can bring the...
What is it?
As well?
What he is doing?
They acquitted the four policemen,
that beat Rodney King.
What did she say, Maria?
The verdict is out.
Considered the four police
officers innocent of all charges.
That's not possible.
You heard?
The bar is heavy on Adams.
There are some guys
facing the police.
The boys here went,
for there.
My God.
Get out of here!
What?
There is an armed
police officer.
As well? Where?
They are after some boys.
Don't go there, they're shooting!
My God, Jesse.
What's it?
Have we lost the fun?
No, no.
Come back inside.
Shawnte is in charge.
I don't want them to leave home.
I don't even want them to leave,
to the backyard, okay?
Stay in there.
I'll be right back.
You're stuck.
You're stuck.
Get in the car.
I need to find,
William and Jesse, but...
They are taking my boys!
Mom, we did nothing.
We did nothing, mom.
What they did?
Why?
Why are you doing this?
What will you do?
Want to kill me?
Will repeat what they did,
with Rodney? It was not him.
He assaulted a police officer.
No, man, I did nothing!
No need to hurt him!
Go back to your homes.
Put your feet on the floor!
Something is happening.
Which is? He did not do anything!
He did something wrong.
He did nothing wrong!
We will!
He did not do anything!
This is wrong!
This is wrong!
Isolate the troublemakers,
from the rest of the group.
They are disrespecting
innocent!
Not! Not! Not!
I did nothing.
You are trying,
take our black boys!
It's not right! Raise.
It's not right! It's not right!
Not! Not! Not!
Not! Not! Not!
Stop resisting!
Not! Not! Not!
Get in the car!
Get in the car! Not!
Not!
Put it in the car.
We are not afraid!
We have guns like them!
Let them out!
Do you call it justice?
I will show you!
They gave the verdict,
from Rodney King.
The four cops,
have been cleared.
Let's fight back on the streets.
Get dressed! Here we go.
They do not have
to pay anything!
Dude, come on!
It's time to fight back. We will!
Rodney King, Latasha,
this is for you!
William!
We have to act!
Let them out!
Help me!
Without justice, no peace!
Without justice, no peace!
Let me out!
Release these people!
Release these people!
I want everyone,
out of here now!
aerial images from
Vermont and Western.
It's a 2 km stretch of Torrance,
west of the Harbor Highway.
They are throwing stones,
looting, crashing vehicles.

Someone's arrested!
They are dragging a man,
in the back of the car!
A guy jumped in the trunk
and fell to the floor.
Jesus Christ! My God!
Stop it. What does
he have to do with it?
Stop it!
William!
Not!
Do not hurt him!
William, please!
Please stop that!

He is suffering a lot.
Shit.
We have to let him go.
Put it on the floor.
Nicole, press the wound.
Put pressure in here, okay?
It's gonna be okay.
We will help you.
Disregard this call.
We're leaving here,
to regroup us.
Man attacking a vehicle,
With a woman inside.

For the moment...

All right?
Okay, we are waiting.
Thanks.
Hey, stop it! Not! Stop!
Do not go away!
Oh my God.
Ruben! Tiger!
Come down,
come watch the TV!
What's it?
What? What?
Come here.
And look at that.
Who knows if this vehicle,
was stolen?
What? Why are
there so many people?
Hi!
Hello all the good.
See what they are doing.
They look so happy.
Clear.
Grandma, we didn't take your
shoes, but we got other things!
The looters didn't stop.
What has life done to you?
Help me!
In between.
Oh my.
He will lose, all the blood.
Shit.
Ambulances are demanding
police escorts.
We are waiting.
How long is it going to take?
There are many victims.
We are watching on TV.
My friend is dying.
You understand?
He's just a boy
and is dying.
Please. You need to help us.
I do not know what to say.
I got no answer,
from the police now.
Children!
Children!
Children!
I finished my homework,
But I can save the Barbies.
Honey, where are the others?
Down there.
Open the door.
Open the door.
Where are we going
to take you?
Where are we?
Where are the plates? They
took all the signs off the street!
I can not see anything.
I can not see.
Careful, Nicole!
Sorry, sorry.
"TURN LEFT,
OR TAKE A SHOT"
Get out of here!
Sir! Help!
Help us!
Sir! Get out of here!
Get the fuck out of the car!
It's the police station!
Turn around!
We will!
I know.
I will prepare something,
for you to eat.
I know they are hungry.
I'm going to cook
something. I know.
It's ok,
give me just a sec...
Shit. All right.
What is he looking for?
Do not know. Maybe something
to break these shackles.
All right.
I'm coming, my loves.
Just give me a second.
Damn it! Shit!
Come here! Shit!
Shit! Shit!
Not today!
No, you son of a bitch!
Hey, hey, hey... She died,
She died. My God.
Millie, Millie.
Everything is alright.
My boys...
No, no, it's fine.
I thought you were
the wise one.
Come here. C'mon C'mon.
Come, come, come...
I need to find my boys.
Sit here. Sit down.
My babies.
Sit down. All right.
Here, here, here, yes.
I thought it was wise,
But you are crazy.
Now, be still, Because
I've never done this before.
My God. Jesus.
Count to three.
My God!
I got it right!
Oh my God.
I need a beer.
Thanks.
I need to find my boys.
All right.
I need to find the key,
from the car and my boys.
God is my witness,
This will be the end for you.
The double cheeseburger is over,
the grilled chicken burger,
the Big Fish, the Bacon King,
the whopper,
the bacon king
and the cheese whopper.
Now, the circus is yours.
If you burn this Burger King,
we will never build again another
restaurant in this neighborhood.
Say goodbye,
to our nuggets
and the buffalo sauces,
ranch, mustard and barbecue.
Goodbye strawberry sundae,
chocolate vanilla,
with cookies.
You consider the possibility
never to take
caramel sundae,
strawberry
and chocolate, forever!
Free food! Nice!
Where is it...?
Where is the damn hospital?
Hey, hey, excuse me!
How do I get to the hospital?
William!
Go back to Hoover.
South of Hoover.
Where is Hoover?
Turn left.
Please open your eyes!
William!
William!
My God, William!
I don't feel his heart.
What?
I do not...
What? Not!
I don't feel his heart.
Find someone!
That!
And then we saw
two people,
two drivers,
who entered this area.
Both drove trucks.
They were taken
of vehicles and beaten.
Then they were robbed.
When they got up...
When they woke up,
covered in blood
and tried to escape,
were beaten again.
There are no police officers at
the police station
nor on King Avenue.
The Los Angeles Police, has
been ordered to leave this area.
And the Tom's liquor store,
near Normandie and Florence,
It was totally destroyed.
People came in empty handed
and left carrying
liquor boxes...
It was almost,
as if the store owner
had opened the doors
and let the crowd take it all...
Two? Yes.
Where do you live?
Right here.
Why did it? Do not know.
Because it's free!
It's free? It's.
Are they back yet?
Do not.
They are nowhere!
I searched all over the city!
Are here! What?
They are here!
I can use this.
Have you seen something
like this, United States?
These leather shoes?
Check out my shoes,
folks!
How much time,
will this continue?
Until the jury changes
its mind.
Well, there it is.
Alida Van Tijen,
Los Angeles Live,
at the corner of Western,
with Santa Monica.
Jesus, Millie.
Hey
Hey
Are you ok mom?
I'll sell it
and make money.
Peaches, can bring, a glass
of water for your mother?
Oh my God.
"MALL"
Stop! Stop! Stop!
Are they!
Where?
There! My God!
They are fried this time.
They are fried.
Boys! Hey
Boys!
Come here now!
This is for you, Millie.
Ruben, come here.
You know you shouldn't
break into someone's store!
Enough!
What is your problem?
Come here!
Ruben! You know you shouldn't
steal stuff from a store!
Oh really? Of all things
that could steal...
Come back Put your
hands on your head.
No, no. We came here
because I saw them doing it!
Not! Pay attention!
I'm telling you to do something.
I am giving an order.
This is crazy.
What is it?
They were looting before
to rob the bank?
Okay, okay.
I asked them to be quiet.
I asked, with education,
to close the nicks.
All right?
Now you are under arrest.
Let's get out.
What?
A policeman needs
reinforcement. Let's go there.
No, no!
No, no!
Shit!
I won't let them get away
with it. Got it?
You are exactly,
what I have been fighting
for against all life!
All right?
And let me
tell them something.
I have a job.
I have a badge.
I have a uniform.
And I'll put you in jail.
All right?
I do not care.
I'll send them to hell
and you will
not get out of there.
Hang on.
Wait a minute.
No, no, no. No, no.
Come back
When are we going home?
Obviously not now!
Get back in the car.
What are you going to do?
All right.
Look here, Tiger.
Want to talk about,
your birthday?
Do not.
All right.
About Christmas?
Christmas? Dude, this is
better, than Christmas!
Hey...
Do what you want.
But when I get out of here,
I will tear your fingers
off, with bites!
Get in the car now.
Get in the car!
Come in! Windows!
My God.
I do not believe this.
You smoke?
I can't get stuck here.
No, no, no.
I do not smoke.
On here. Must have enough.
I have a pin.
Let me see if I can...
Maybe... Okay, that's good.
Hey, hey, sir, stop!
Come here! Stop!
Help! Help us!
We are stuck.
Get screwed!
My God!
Get screwed!
All right.
Wait, let me try...
Yes Yes.
Ah, ah...
Excuse me.
I'm so sorry.
Well... Was that you?
I thought it was me.
I thought I peed my pants.
It's all right.
It's all right.
I've been through worse.
It's just a scratch.
He is just bleeding a little.
He'll be fine.
Please.
Please wake up.
William
William...
Please wake up.
I'll need your pants.
What?
Take off your pants, honey.
You can put on panties,
But I need the jeans.
Once again.
Okay, fine.

They are looking at me.
Shit.

That! That!
Okay, okay.
Slowly.

asking everyone to cooperate,
stay away from the streets,
anticipating that
a touch to collect,
will take effect
tomorrow, m at night.
Very well.
Oh my God. My God.
Great great.
Very well.
Oh my God...

This is a turkey.
