Haley Joel Osment issued an apology after he was caught using an antisemitic slur against a police officer during his arrest for cocaine possession and disorderly conduct.
The “Sixth Sense” star was taken into custody at a ski lodge in California on April 8 after cops responded to a call regarding an “aggravated” and “argumentative” bar patron.
Video of Osment’s arrest obtained by The Post on Thursday showed the former child actor struggling with police and spewing epithets.
Osment, 37, spoke out about his “disgraceful language” just hours after the bodycam footage was made public.
“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 said in a statement to The Post.
Osment, whose house burned down in the California wildfires earlier this year, noted that “the past few months of loss and displacement have broken [him] down to a very low, emotional place.
“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.”
In the police video, Osment is seen being detained by several ski patrol workers before Mammoth Lakes Police arrived at the scene.
The officers found what appeared to be cocaine wrapped up in a $20 bill in his possession.
The police had to push the actor into a squad car after he did not comply with their requests to get into the back seat.
Osment told officers he was being “attacked” and “abused” as they asked him questions.
The “Pay It Forward” star grew increasingly agitated with the arresting officer on the drive to the police station.
“I’ve been kidnapped by a f–king Nazi,” he could be heard saying while in the back of the car.
He also called the officer a Jewish slur.
Osment seemingly threatened the cop, too, saying, “You’ll wish you treated me nicer.”
He doubled down on the ominous threats when they arrived at the station, warning the officer that he “was gonna regret this.”
Osment also told officers, “Good luck” as they took him inside to be booked.
The substance found in his possession was sent to a lab for testing.
He was released from custody, and his arraignment is scheduled for June 7.
