'''Stacey Cornell Koon''' (born 23 November 1950) is a former Los Angeles police officer and the ringleader of the 1991 Rodney King incident, a [[police brutality]] incident in which African-American motorist Rodney King was beaten up by four white police officers. King suffered a fractured skull, a broken leg and several burns as a result of the attack. Koon and the other officers were indicted by a grand jury but acquitted, sparking the [[1992 Los Angeles riots]]. 

In 1993, Koon and the other officers were re-tried in federal court for violating King's civil rights. Koon and another officer were convicted and sentenced to 2.5 years in jail.
