Summary

Lyndon McLeod was your typical controversial online troll. He was loud, provocative, and identified as a quote, “Shiva-the-destroyer archetype who likes to watch shit burn.” He also happened to be an author. His 4,485 page self-published 3-part work entitled “Sanction” began to gain some traction online with the help of his dark and outlandish marketing tactics… but one supporter of the writer’s Patreon eventually realized the book wasn't a fictional tale. When warnings fell on deaf ears… when no one listened to threats that inevitably turned out to be true - the city of Denver, CO would be met with a brand of devastation well beyond anyone’s worst nightmares.   Visit Invisible Choir on the web:  Patreon - Invisible Choir Premium:  https://www.patreon.com/InvisibleChoir  Website:  https://www.invisiblechoir.com/  Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/InvisibleChoirPodcast/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/invisiblechoir/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/InvisibleChoir   Written/Audio Sources:  His Woman-Hating SciFi Went Viral in the ‘Manosphere.’ If She’d Known, Maybe She Would Have Seen Him Coming – Rolling Stone Denver Shooting Suspect Lyndon McLeod Glorified Guns and Misogyny: 'War is Coming' @Roman_Mcclay (Gunman's Twitter Account) Lyndon McLeod aka Roman McClay: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know Denver gunman who killed five in shooting rampage knew victims | US news | The Guardian.

Invisible Choir explores detailed depictions of violence and murder, and is not appropriate

for all audiences. Listener discretion is advised.

0:28.0

They put people into two categories, polite, decent civilizement of the fuckers and violent

0:34.0

people, and I don't think that's nuanced enough. I think there's a person who is violent

0:40.3

but is actually honorable and decent. That is that archetype that I'm interested in.

Here on Invisible Choir, we've covered all sorts of cases. Each nook and cranny of the extensive

1:02.1

realm that is true crime has been thoroughly dissected, analyzed, and digested right here

1:07.7

on this podcast. You think we'd eventually get sick of it, but we never do. Our intrigue

1:14.5

and desire to understand the human psyche through criminality never yields nor ceases to

1:20.2

amaze us. With that being said, a lot of the crimes we cover differ wildly from one to

1:25.8

the next, but some do share great similarities, such as the all-predictable motive of love
