Lee Toric entered the series near the end of its fifth season after Otto murdered his sister, a nurse named Pamela. A former U.S. Marshal, Toric posed the club a different threat than it had faced before: A man driven by vengeance, able to access the tools of the law without needing to be beholden to any of it. Toric quickly made Otto's life in prison a living hell, attempted to use Tara and Clay against the club, used a pair of Byz Lats as bottle openers and even framed Nero for the murder of a prostitute that Toric himself committed. In all respects, Toric was a tornado that had blown into the club's environment, whose actions were unable to predict and devoid of any interest in the lives he destroyed so long as his own agenda was met. Several episodes into the sixth season, Toric is killed by Otto after an enraged Toric attempts to strangle him. Toric's last words, "I didn't even see that coming," ring true for the audience, too, all of whom were most likely expecting the character to stick around causing trouble for more than just a few episodes.
