3 Arrested in Paris for Using ‘Devils Breath’ Drug to Hypnotize Victims
by Drugs Are Boring
A hallucinogenic drug was used by robbery suspects arrested in Paris, France. Three people were apprehended by Paris police on suspicion of robbing victims hypnotized with the hallucinogenic drug scopolamine, according to the Telegraph.
Two Chinese women, aged 42 and 59, approached unsuspecting victims in the cosmopolitan Belleville district and blew the “Devils Breath” into their faces.
Once the drug took effect, the victims were rendered hapless zombies, submitting to the whim of their violators.
The victims would be taken to their homes, where they were commanded to hand over their money and jewelry. One Parisian lost €100,000, and according to police, dozens have fallen victim to the mischief of this demented trio.
Le Parisien reported that:
“The victims targeted, very often old, were accosted in the street by a first woman. This person claimed to be looking for a mysterious ‘Doctor Wang’ before being joined by her accomplice. They managed to isolate their victims, then got them to breathe in a mixture of plants on the grounds they had powerful curative qualities — even protecting them from misfortune.”
A third henchman, 56, was arrested later. He is suspected of being the medicine man, mixer of the diabolical brew.
In a raid on the grifters hotel room located in the north-eastern suburb of Seine-Saint-Denis, police found a trove of pharmaceutical supplies including “various Chinese medicinal substances as well as weighing scales, filters and gloves”.
According to the police, the three suspects are part of a larger Triad-style criminal gang operating internationally.
Chinese authorities have informed the French government that the crooks belong to a nefarious Chinese criminal network which “acts around the world and specializes in mental submission with the aid of unknown products.” Other members are considered still at large, and actively sending millions of dollars back to their mob bosses in China. Possible affiliated gang members have been arrested in South Korea and China.
Confiscated passports reveal that the two women have recently traveled to Mexico.
Scopolamine is a hallucinogenic drug commonly derived from South American solanaceous plants including belladonna and datura. It is also referred to as Maldemar, Burindanga, Zombie Drug and Devils Breath.
According to VICE News, scopolamine:
“Is most often administered in liquid or powder form in foods and beverages. The majority of these incidents occur in night clubs and bars, and usually men, perceived to be wealthy, are targeted by young, attractive women.”
In a 2013 VICE documentary, reporter Ryan Duffy refers to scopolamine as “the most dangerous drug in the world.” This is due in part to its ability to relieve a person of their self will, rendering them virtual zombies for manipulation.
The drug is odorless, colorless and takes effect almost immediately, and afterwards, leaves the victim a hopeless amnesiac.
