In an exclusive video obtained by news outlet KTVU, former San Jose police officer Mark McNamara said he regretted shooting Kโaun Green last year.

In other words, he had the gaul to insist that despite shooting a Black he actually isnโt a monsterโwhich is the kind of despicable behavior expected from a white male police officer.
McNamara was deposed as part of a federal lawsuit against him as well as the 2022.
โYou know, every time Iโve ever had to use force on somebody, it makes me feel bad,โ he said in the video. โI donโt I donโt like hurting people. Iโm not a monster. Iโm human being just like everybody else in this room.
โHey, Iโm sorry. Itโs a bitter part of my job. Sometimes it has to be done as far as Mr. Green. So if youโre telling me that Mr. Green was not related to the homicide. Yeah, thatโs. Itโs very unfortunate.โ
However, days after McNamara was deposed his racist texts were exposed:
โThe other day this [N-word] lawyer is like Mr. McNamara, you know we can still find you guilty of excessive force right?! Iโm like, hmmmm yeah then what happens?? Nothing?? Cool. Cuz Iโm pretty sure the district attorney would have charged me if I used excessive force but she didnโt because I didnโt use excessive force. Think I give a fuck what yโall [N-word] think!??? Iโll shoot you too!!!! AHHHHH!!!โ
The San Jose Police Departmentโs chief released this in addition to other messages that McNamara allegedly wrote soon after the shooting and then the deposition.
McNamara stepped down from his position on Fridayโright before the texts became public. Even though he feigned remorse on the stand, McNamara said even more heinously racist things. This time, they were about Green.
โThere was like 65 African lookin mother f**kers there too. All just mean mugging me and taking notes. They should all be blowing to me and brining (me) gifts since I saved a fellow [N-word] by making him rich as fuck. Otherwise he woulda lived a life of poverty and crime,โ McNamara wrote.
On Wednesday, the city of San Jose recused itself from representing McNamara in the civil excessive force suit against him which leaves him to find his own attorney.
McNamara is a trash bag of a human being and should be forced to pay for his actions.
