Terrific character actor in movies and TV for 40 years, noteworthy for "The Longest Yard," "Death Wish 3" and "Youngblood," among many others.

He was Sheriff John Sebastian Cain on BJ and the Bear and the Misadventures of Sheriff Lobo.
 
Was he in Fletch? The inbred from Provo with a shotgun who Fletch tells he's the mattress police?

I've always thought that was him but never have checked. However, it was Fletch who purported to be with the mattress police.

RIP. Loved him in The Longest Yard. Gave dimension to his character and didn't make a bad guy seem all that bad.
