No...you aren't the only one. I think the jewish cop POSSIBLY provoked him. His diatribe made NO SENSE said to a Chinese man (like was first reported)....and then the fact of his being Jewish didn't come out for two days and has NEVER been mentioned again makes me go ...hmmmmmm. The story against Mel would have been even UGLIER had the fact he said this to a Jewish cop, so why hide that fact for two days...it sure wasn't to shield Mel from any embarrassment.
Weird. I hadn't heard the cop was Jewish anywhere.
