Sebastian Woodroffe: Victoria Gracia, Peru
Episode 51, Oct 31, 06:59 AM
Sebastian Woodroffe, a 41-year-old from British Columbia, journeyed to the Peruvian Amazon in search of spiritual healing through ayahuasca. However, his quest took a dark turn. On April 19, 2018, Woodroffe fatally shot 81-year-old shaman Olivia Arevalo Lomas, though his motive remains unclear. In response, locals took justice into their own hands, lynching him in a vigilante act captured on video and later shared on Facebook.
What led to these tragic events? How did two lives come to such violent ends deep in the Amazon?
Listen as we dive into Peru, Ayahuasca, the case of Sebastian Woodroffe, and how to stay alive on vacation.
