Don Johnson. That's who. The link will make you work for it, but if you read the full story from the Aug. 7 edition of the Aspen Daily News, you'll learn the ugly truth. I've taken the liberty of reordering the following sentences from said article, because any good editor should have done so previously.
To wit...italics also are added...

Clark's Market had given Johnson a line of credit since 1989, but last year his bill went unpaid, and he had been in default since September, according to court papers.
"We're dealing with somebody who at one time was very creditworthy and obviously a very successful actor and a very successful businessman, and really, it's sad," said Tom Clark, president of the valley-based, nine-store chain. "It's sad for anybody who's successful but can no longer pay their bills. This was not a fun thing to do, and hopefully I'll never have to do it again."
Clark said it's doubtful he'll extend the former "Miami Vice" star a line of credit in the future, even if he satisfies his tab.


To recap, then: Who gets to run up a $5,470 tab at a grocery store? In Aspen? What a Crockett of Shiite, so to speak.
