In a video widely shared on social media, the lawyer—identified as Anthony Orlich—can be seen grinning after grabbing a Black woman’s wig off her head.

The woman, Lizzy Ashliegh, can be heard yelling:

“Sir, for what f**king reason? For what reason? For what reason did you take my wig off?”
“Because what made you think that that was the good thing to do? For what? For what? Why did you do that?”
