Acquitting the cops was the right decision.
I read Stacey Koon's book. This guy was anything but prejudiced against black people.
Strangely....a good friend, who was a retired Captain with LAPD, had a different view.
"I would have burned them all, including their watch commander" was his comment.
What screwed those cops was, not what they did to King, it was the comments they made about him and the incident on their MDTs(the old cop car computers).
