Hollywood costume designer’s racist tirade at CVS: I’d kill black people but ‘law says I can’t’

A Hollywood costume designer was caught on video going on a racist tirade outside a Los Angeles-area CVS store — claiming she would kill black people if it was legal, according to a report.

Heather Patton was seen leaving the drugstore Tuesday in Eagle Rock using threatening language and repeatedly shouting racial slurs, news station KTLA reported.

“If the law didn’t say I couldn’t kill the n—ers, they would all be dead,” she reportedly said to a black woman filming her rant.

Patton then goes on to double down on her hateful message, saying, “I would kill a n—er, but the law says I can’t kill the n—er.”

Patton has worked in the TV and movie industry in the costume department on shows such as “Private Practice” and “Medium,” according to her IMDB page.

Renee Saldana, who witnessed the episode, said that she reported the woman to authorities.

“It was quiet in CVS & then someone just yelled the n-word then it was quiet again & then that woman started screeching racist stuff towards a Black woman (who shot the video,” she said in a tweet. “There was no build-up or prior altercation.”

The Los Angeles Police Department confirmed that a report was filed in connection to the incident, CBS LA reported.

A rep for CVS said the unruly customer was kicked out of the store — and the company is now cooperating with police.

“We are committed to maintaining a welcoming and diverse environment in our stores to help ensure that all customers are treated with respect and dignity,” the company said in a statement. “We condemn, in the strongest terms, the behavior of the customer seen in the recent social media video.”

Patton’s neighbor, who asked to be identified only as Tony, said that she has a history of racist behavior, KTLA reported.

“Her and her husband have really been behaving dishearteningly with our neighbors. We had to file restraining orders against her for wanting to threaten us, assault us. They were yelling racial slurs at us like ‘Go back to your country,’ ” he told the news station.
