who was the black guy in breaking bad
List of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul characters Huell Babineaux (played by Lavell Crawford) is Saul Goodman's bodyguard, who also executes various intimidation and other errands. Hired more for his size and pick pocketing skills than his intelligence, he has a condition approximating narcolepsy (e.g., he falls asleep at odd times, such as when standing up or while on security detail), and has digestive problems that keep him from being as stoic as Saul would like.[52] Together with Kuby, he was sent to intimidate Ted Beneke into paying his IRS debts with the money Skyler gave Ted. Later seen in the Season 5 premiere, it is made known that Huell played a huge role in the poisoning of Brock Cantillo when he pick pocketed Jesse's ricin cigarette. In "Buried," Saul sends Huell and Kuby to collect Walt's money from a storage locker in which he and Kuby proceed to lie down and relax on Walt's millions, and in "Confessions," Saul tasks Huell with pick pocketing Jesse's marijuana.
