Dressed in a hoodie, sunglasses and face mask, he jokes that Juror Bridges has been excused when he briefly takes off his mask and laughs that no one knows who he is.

“You look like Ludacris,” the woman walking alongside him says.

“I wish, I wouldn’t be here if I was,” Bridges responds.

“Ludacris is from Atlanta, I think,” she tells him.

“Is he? I think you might be right,” he says laughing.
