by designer Heather Patton
....
I would like to take a stand and share my story, Ashford said in an interview with Heavy on September 26, two days after the incident. I was in there shopping and she started screaming and yelling at me in the store. I ran to the front and begged them to call police, and said she keeps calling me n*gger.'
Ashford said she went to the Los Angeles Police Department and filed a report. An officer told her she would hear back in about five days. The LAPD did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Heavy. But the LAPD told the Los Angeles Times and KTLA-TV that a hate crime investigation is underway.
Heather Patton is a 49-year-old Los Angeles resident who works in the TV and movie industry as a costume designer, wardrobe assistant, costumer and in various other film crew roles.
Ashford coincidentally also works in the film industry in costume design. I could end up on set with her, she told Heavy. Im scared, this is my livelihood as well. I dont know this woman from a can of paint, but I learned she is in the film and TV industry and that she has done this to others.Its very scary

Ashford asked the CVS store for help they would not call police . Other witnesses shopping said there was no interaction before Patton started screaming at her and the woman drove off erratically on the wrong side of the street !
She did this racist screaming at another store to an Asian man and her Italian neighbors have a lot to say.. Hateful lady and her husband seems just as bad .

(21,859 posts)she was attacked verbally in their store. Perhaps she has a legitimate complain to file in court, that they didn't provide a safe environment for her shopping experience? How disgusting and disturbing...

She is a threat to everyone in the industry. The FEDs should pay her a visit and confiscate any of her guns and ropes since she wants to lynch POC.

Heather deleted all her IG posts and her bio now reads, "Please do not contact me. I was intoxicated and I sincerely apologize to everyone whom I disrespected and let down for my actions. Please forgive me."
