ExclusiveThe Crimes Of Ervil LeBaron
Ervil LeBaron, the leader of the Church of the Lamb of God who believed himself to be a prophet, was waging a war against his brother, Joel LeBaron. Ervil wanted Joel dead, and in 1972, several of Ervil’s followers carried out their leader’s wishes, luring Joel to a house, beating him, and shooting him to death.
