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.
