    Depressing to hear, he was always a good character, hope his family and friends will be ok.

    What?? He was an asshole

    Assault

    Coleman was charged with assault in 1998 after he punched a woman. Coleman had been working as a security guard, and bus driver Tracy Fields requested his autograph while he was shopping for a bulletproof vest in a California mall. The two argued about the autograph, and Fields mocked Coleman's lackluster career as an adult actor. Coleman testified that "I was getting scared, and she was getting ugly"; he said that he thought Fields was going to hit him, so he punched her. Coleman pleaded no contest and received a suspended sentence. He was also ordered to pay Fields $1,665 for hospital bills resulting from the fight.[18]
    Citation for disorderly conduct

    On July 26, 2007, Coleman was cited for misdemeanor disorderly conduct by a Provo, Utah, police officer after Coleman was seen having a "heated discussion" with his wife, Shannon Price.[19][20]
    On July 3, 2009, Coleman and his wife were involved in a domestic dispute in which Coleman's wife was arrested on suspicion of domestic violence, and both parties were cited for disorderly conduct.[21]
    Automobile accident

    Coleman was involved in an automobile accident in Payson, Utah on September 6, 2008. According to Payson police, Coleman was backing up his truck in a Payson bowling alley parking lot when he allegedly hit 24-year-old Colt Rushton. According to a witness, the tire of Coleman's truck hit Rushton's knee and pulled him under the truck. Coleman's vehicle then hit another car. Rushton was transported to a local hospital, where he was treated and released with minor injuries. Police said Coleman's driving speed was not excessive. Witnesses told police the incident stemmed from an argument that started in the bowling alley after Rushton photographed Coleman. Coleman objected to Rushton taking his picture and the two men started arguing, according to witnesses. There was no citation or arrest for either man. Police said neither man would make a statement at the scene.[22][23]
    On December 2, 2008, Coleman pleaded no contest to charges of disorderly conduct and reckless driving. The court ordered him to pay a $100 fine for disorderly conduct. The reckless driving charge was to be waived in one year if Coleman did not commit any further violations. On January 14, 2010, Coleman settled a civil suit related to the incident for an undisclosed amount.[24][25][26]
    Domestic violence assault

    On January 24, 2010, Coleman was arrested on a domestic violence assault warrant in Santaquin, Utah. Coleman was subsequently booked into the Utah County Jail[27] and released on January 25, 2010.[28

    1 case of assault over 10 years ago. Suspended sentence.
    1 case of having a barney with his missus. Both of them cautioned.
    1 case of reckless driving.
    1 further case of alleged domestic violence. Banged up for the night & let go the next day.

    On a scale of assholeness, that would probably rate as a 0.02.

    Aw... Poor old Arnold. Wasn't there talk, back when the show was on, that whatever condition he had meant that he would die young? Does anybody else remember that urban legend?

    i dont want to go off topic but domestic violence/assault would rate fairly high on the "assholeness" scale in my opinion.

    That may very well be the case, but did you even read what was posted?

    In one case, his wife was arrested for suspicion of domestic violence, in another, the two of them were having a heated argument & in another he was arrested but let go the following day.

    Never charged with anything. Not exactly what you'd call a wife beater, or even close.

    RIP Gary.

    I'm too young to remember his TV days, but he'll always stand out as someone who always seemed to embrace and play up their image. His appearance on the Simpsons as a security guard in one Christmas special - 'What you talking about, everyone!' - is a classic.
