Damian Williams, Antoine Miller, Henry Watson, Gary Williams, Anthony Brown and Lance Parker were nicknamed “The L.A. Four”—though they were actually six—and were the main perpetrators of Reginald Denny’s beating. Williams was the only one who actually served time for the time, doing four years of a ten-year sentence for striking Denny on the head with a concrete cinderblock. In 2000, Williams was convicted for participation in a drug-related murder and is currently serving a 46-year sentence. Watson was also convicted for beating Denny, but only of a misdemeanor assault and was freed after the trial. Watson too was later jailed again, this time for three years on a drug conviction; today he’s the owner of a limousine rental company. The other four were cleared of all charges. Miller was later killed in a nightclub shooting.
