Haley Joel Osment's shocking arrest went viral for multiple reasons: he was a beloved child star arrested and booked alleged public intoxication and possession of a controlled substance. The actor, who looked nearly unrecognizable from the his earliest films, also hurled an anti-semitic slur at the officer who was driving him to the station.
Per body cam footage, the 37-year-old Sixth Sense alum — who was arrested at California's Mammoth Mountain ski resort earlier this month — initially appeared to give police trouble as they attempted to gain control and place him in handcuffs. After news broke of the arrest on Thursday, April 17, the Mono County District Attorney's office added more specifics in a statement obtained by People, noting that Osment was charged with possession of cocaine and disorderly conduct. He is to be arraigned in June.While the arrest itself went viral, it's not the only shocking moment the police body cam picked up.
In addition to his comments to the officer driving him to the station after the arrest — during which the Forrest Gump star claimed he was being "kidnapped by a Nazi" and "tortured" — another cop held up the actor's driver's license to another group of officers.
"You do recognize him, right? The actor?" the policeman asked.
"Oh yeah, I was wondering when I saw that," one officer responded, while another reacted with surprise.
The original cop, the one showing Haley Joel's license, then rattled off a list of some of the actor's most famous films. "The Sixth Sense, Pay It Forward...," the officer said.
"That's the kid actor," he elaborated, pointing at the license.
Haley Joel — whose sister is actress Emily Osment — spoke out to apologize about the slur he used in the incident.
"I’m absolutely horrified by my behavior. Had I known I used this disgraceful language in the throes of a blackout, I would have spoken up sooner," he told People in a statement on Thursday. "The past few months of loss and displacement have broken me down to a very low emotional place." The actor has been deeply affected by the California wildfires, losing his home in the deadly destruction.
"But that’s no excuse for using this disgusting word," he continued. From the bottom of my heart, I apologize to absolutely everyone that this hurts. What came out of my mouth was nonsensical garbage — I’ve let the Jewish community down and it devastates me. I don’t ask for anyone’s forgiveness, but I promise to atone for my terrible mistake."
