Talk:1992 Los Angeles riots/Archive 2

"Cover me"
I do not want to edit the article but the source for the "Cover Me" story is not accurate. Harvard Kennedy School of Government Case Program wrote three different case studies which are | 1586.0 - (A), | 1587.0 - (B), and | 1588 - (C). I went back and checked the original entry which is here | Revision as of 02:26, 26 March 2018 and it uses the source "The Flawed Emergency Response to the 1992 Los Angeles Riots (C)" but the current wiki edition uses (A). The source comes from Major General James Delk who was the commander of California National in the LA Riots in his book Fires and Furies on Page 221. The Army War College uses this story in their publication for their quarterly "Parameters" on | page 2. Also the entry appears to be an exact copy and paste from Delk's book which I believe runs afoul of WP:COPYPASTE. CorrinoWiki (talk) 02:49, 8 July 2022 (UTC)

Trial result
The intro states "a jury acquitted four officers of the Los Angeles Police Department", but if you follow the link, it seems that the jury actually acquitted 3 of the officers and was unable to reach a decision (hung jury) on the other. This should be corrected.

The State could presumably have re-tried the officer who was not acquitted (reports state that he was the one who struck almost all of the blows on Mr King) but chose not to. There's no indication as to why. Longitude2 (talk) 11:56, 30 October 2022 (UTC)
