Newly uncovered emails from the latest Epstein Files document dump suggest Jeffrey Epstein may have maintained a collection of highly toxic plants capable of producing a mind-altering substance, according to correspondence discovered in the recent release.
In one email, Epstein inquired about his "trumpet plants at nursery," raising questions about whether he was cultivating Angel's Trumpet plants, a species known to produce scopolamine, a drug with terrifying effects on the human body and mind, TMZ reported.
Angel's Trumpet plants are extremely poisonous and generate scopolamine, which "basically turn humans into zombies, wiping them of memory and eliminating their free will. Severe intoxication reportedly may even cause paralysis and death," the report said.
Scopolamine reportedly leaves no trace on standard toxicology reports.
Evidence suggests Epstein was well aware of these properties. In another email uncovered in the files, he received an article detailing the effects of scopolamine and its botanical source.
Epstein died in his cell in 2019 while awaiting trial on federal sex trafficking charges.
