Fan Casting Lind L. Taylor in Shane Black's Death Note

Lind L. Taylor is a condemned criminal used as bait by L. He appears on live television posing as a government agent, smugly challenging Kira to kill him. He is arrogant, convincing, and utterly convincing—until he dies of a heart attack on screen. His death proves Kira exists and reveals L's ruthless tactics. He is a pawn, a sacrifice, and the turning point of the investigation.
