In an exclusive interview Clarke told RadarOnline.com that although he had never met the Different Strokes star he posted the $1,725 bail as he felt sorry for the former child actor. “I felt bad for the guy. I grew up watching him and I know he has had a hard life,” Clarke said. ”To see that sad mug shot, for only $1700, I thought it was the least I could do.”
Clarke said that he did not expect Coleman to repay the loan, but shared with RadarOnline.com that Coleman’s father-in-law, who met Clarke at the jail, indicated that Coleman would be in touch to thank him. Something that, as of yet, has still not happened.

Insisting he was not expecting Coleman to pay him back, Clarke explained his act of charity, telling RadarOnline.com, “I felt bad for the guy. I grew up watching him and I know he has had a hard life. To see that sad mug shot, for only $1700, I thought it was the least I could do.”
Santaquin police arrested Coleman, 41, on Sunday after receiving reports of a "civil disturbance" at his home. Once there, police found Coleman had an outstanding warrant for his arrest.

While Coleman stays silent on those who helped him, others are looking to cash in on the actor’s notoriety.
The Utah Grizzlies, who play in the East Coast Hockey League, have invited Coleman to drop the puck prior to Monday’s game against Las Vegas.
The franchise has contacted Coleman’s agent and attorney, but as yet, they have not responded.
“Gary has struggled a bit since his move to Utah, but we'd like to take this opportunity to introduce him to Grizzlies hockey,” said the team’s Adrian Denny.
“We'd like to show him a great night of hockey entertainment and take that opportunity to wish him all the best.”
