This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act. I hereby request the following records:

A copy of any files the FBI has on Rodney King, born April 2, 1965 and died June 17, 2012.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires.
