Haley Joel Osment charged with public intoxication, cocaine possession

News summary

Haley Joel Osment, known for his role in 'The Sixth Sense,' has apologized after video footage surfaced showing him directing an antisemitic slur and calling a police officer a 'Nazi' during his arrest for public intoxication and cocaine possession at Mammoth Mountain ski resort on April 8. Osment, who recently lost his home in the Eaton Fire and has spoken about his emotional struggles, stated he was 'horrified' by his behavior and pledged to atone for his actions, while making clear there was no excuse for his language. Bodycam and bystander footage captured Osment acting belligerently, causing a disturbance at a chair lift, and being found with cocaine. He was formally charged with disorderly conduct under the influence of alcohol and possession of cocaine, and is scheduled to be arraigned in July. Osment's representatives have not immediately commented further on the charges. The incident has drawn attention both for the actor's conduct and his public apology to the Jewish community.
