LAKEWOOD, COLORADO: Blair Featherman, aka 'Poolside Karen', reportedly found herself explaining her actions to the police with the statement, "I'm not usually racist."

A TikTok video, uploaded by a member of the family, captured the moment when Featherman became so agitated that a man accompanying her had to restrain her physically.

Newly-released bodycam footage from the Lakewood Police sheds light on the aftermath of the altercation involving Featherman.

'Poolside Karen' Blair Featherman calls family 'trashy' and 'nasty'

In the footage, obtained by The Messenger, Featherman could be heard calling the family "trashy" and "nasty" and telling an officer that she believed "they don't belong here."

"I'm not usually racist at all, but I'll tell you what, they come in, and they come in for their party, they're trashy, they're nasty, and they don't belong here. I pay for this," she was heard saying.

In one of the videos, Featherman could be heard expressing her frustration, suggesting that the family members would not be arrested "because they're Latinos."

Additionally, she made unfounded claims that the family members were part of a "gang," despite lacking evidence to support this claim.

Witnesses claimed Blair Featherman started the verbal confrontation

Residents of the luxury Alta Green Mountain complex, who were part of the said family, explained to the police that they were indeed tenants and had rented the clubhouse for a family celebration.

Furthermore, two unrelated witnesses living in the complex confirmed that Featherman had started the confrontation.

"She said some weird, super racist s**t, got really aggressive," one told an officer.

Another said, "[Featherman] started all of it; she was saying you guys do not belong here," adding that she told her to "go back to Mexico."

Featherman mentioned having a video showing her being attacked, but an officer stated that her clip did not reveal any "criminal" activity. "I know a cop, and this is BS," Featherman replied.

The responding officer clarified that he could not press charges unless Featherman could prove that an assault had occurred.

"I get it, I get it. People just get away with everything these days — because they are Latinos," she was heard telling the officer.

At first, she denied hitting a 14-year-old girl recording her, but later admitted to trying to take the girl's phone.

"I'm sure she is [saying that] — they want to kill any white person. Let her go claim it. I'll see her in court!" Featherman claimed.
