Drug 'Devil's Breath' from Colombia can block free will, wipe memory and even kill
UK Daily Mail ^ | May 12, 2012 | Beth Stebner

Scopolamine often blown into faces of victims or added to drinks

Within minutes, victims are like 'zombies' - coherent, but with no free will

Some victims report emptying bank accounts to robbers or helping them pillage own house

Drug is made from borrachero tree, which is common in Colombia

... He told Vice that Scopolamine can be blown in the face of a passer-by on the street, and within minutes, that person is under the drug's effect - scopolamine is odourless and tasteless-

'You can guide them wherever you want,' he explained. 'It's like they're a child.'

Black said that one gram of Scopolamine is similar to a gram of cocaine, but later called it 'worse than anthrax.'

In high doses, it is lethal.

The drug, he said, turns people into complete zombies and blocks memories from forming. So even after the drug wears off, victims have no recollection as to what happened.

One victim told Vice that a man approached her on the street asking her for directions. Since it was close by, she helped take the man to his destination, and they drank juice together.

She took the man to her house and helped him gather all of her belongings, including her boyfriend's cameras and savings.

I think the scariest part is that it can be blown into the face of someone by a stranger pssing by or nearby anywhere.

Yes. Be careful the next time you’re at a polling place.

From my experience, they don't always work.

I think you can get scopolamine from Jimson Weed, including the other belladonna alkaloid atropine.

Pure scopolamine, I’m skeptical, as with the claim that a puff of powder enough to have physiological effects can be put in the face of a passer-by without his or her noticing. Even Rooskie agents need umbrellas.

Sounds like the basis for writing a new capital crime law. I would torture then burn then chop off the limbs then tie them to a post to dehydrate and die for using that against someone.

These plants are available in well-stocked garden centers. The seeds are widely available in catalogues, and frequently do not even note that the plants can be toxic.

Wasn’t there a 60 minute segment on this where the memory effect was nullified by grape juice?

The victims were being raped by a$$holes but this one girl was able to remember her assailant
