Overview
- A Mono County judge granted a one-year diversion on June 2 after his April 8 arrest for public intoxication and possession of a controlled substance at a Mammoth Lakes ski lodge.
- The court order requires Osment to attend at least three Alcoholics Anonymous meetings per week and meet with a therapist twice weekly over the next six months.
- Mono County District Attorney David Anderson had objected to the diversion based on Osment’s 2006 DUI conviction and his use of an antisemitic slur during the arrest.
- Osment issued a public apology for the slur, attributing his behavior to emotional distress following the loss of his Altadena home in January wildfires.
- His next court appearance is scheduled for January 5, 2026, when a judge will review his compliance and decide on dismissing the charges.
