The apology I read goes like this.
After drinking alcohol on Thursday night, I did a number of things that were very wrong and for which I am ashamed.I drove a car when I should not have, and was stopped by the LA County Sheriffs.
The arresting officer was just doing his job and I feel fortunate that I was apprehended before I caused injury to any other person.
I acted like a person completely out of control when I was arrested, and said things that I do not believe to be true and which are despicable.
I am deeply ashamed of everything I said. Also, I take this opportunity to apologize to the deputies involved for my belligerent behavior.
They have always been there for me in my community and indeed probably saved me from myself.
I disgraced myself and my family with my behavior and for that I am truly sorry. I have battled with the disease of alcoholism for all of my adult life and profoundly regret my horrific relapse.
I apologize for any behavior unbecoming of me in my inebriated state and have already taken necessary steps to ensure my return to health.
There's a tad of specificity regarding the LEOs.
Personally I think he should have addressed them by name.
He acknowledged his alcoholism. A good thing, both at AA and publicly. But not an excuse.
Digracing his family, acknowledged specifically, a good thing.
The multiple *uck the Jews, the Jews cause all the wars (similar to the comment of a murderer 12 hours later, unfortunately) comments, addressed in the general things that I do not believe to be true and which are despicable comment I suppose.
If the Father considers that an apology for his antisemitic views, that's fine.
Foxman and Donahue and Mel's supporters can fight it out.
I've defended him before, reluctantly, I think he's a Jewhater now.
My mind will be changed only by future actions.
And yes, "restitution" , the wrong word but what can we use, is very difficult, and very personal in a situation where damage isn't clear in the coin of the realm.
