- A resume and cover letter found in a home in Mosul, Iraq, have been attributed to Clark, who confirmed in the interview he sent them in 2015 because he needed to find a way to support himself.
- He said he wasn't daunted by videos he had seen of IS fighters conducting executions and crucifixions, saying he saw no difference between them and executions in Texas.
