  • This spring, international media reported on the bizarre case of a young British Columbian lynched in Peru after he - in the grips of a hallucinogen called Ayahuasca - shot a highly revered local Indigenous leader and shaman. We went to the Peruvian jungle and found out what really happened.

      That’s a saviour complex issue really. If you’re a caring person, you automatically cared for your family and others too. I suspect it’s his excuse to abandon family and go off to this part of the world where he can be free from the life he left behind. I remember a case of a young girl going off to somewhere in Africa and end up killing so many children due to her inexperience and have no business to be there in the first place...she’s not trained or have the skills in healthcare.

    I am familiar with Ayuahausca and living in South America. First, the number of foreigners like Sebastian looking for the answers and seeking out Shamans for help would surprise this audience. Many if not the majority, have issues mental, spiritual and physical that draws him to this medicine. A large number want to be a “shaman”. What is missing from this short episode is the dark and malevolent spirits that are “attracted” to these individuals and in the shamanic community. Aside from the obvious, mixing pharmaceuticals used for other mental disorders and doing Ayuahuasca is a prescription for a psychotic break. This is just one story involving murder and death in SA , seeking this medicine and traveling into a culture drastically different than western mindsets is not to be taken lightly. I’ve observed and heard numerous stories of people who become addicted to these ceremonies and having complete break downs. These tragedies have happened before and will continue ...people really need to understand what door they are opening when they seek this medicine and the healers who lead them.

He eventually sold his home and lived in a motor home to get more cash for his trips to Peru. AirCanada round trips between Vancouver BC and Lima Peru are around $1500 (for instance, 4 X $1500 = $ 6000). He killed the shaman because he had paid her son $6700 for just one session. Somehow, the financial accounting of this guy's Peruvian scheme still don't add up for me, even if he had a bunch of equity in his home. If he did finance this on his own, then he was probably close to poverty when he pulled that trigger. ... jkulik919@gmail.com

    I've been to a place in Peru to take Ayahuasca.

      The erratic, bizarre, or even threatening behavior of someone having a mental breakdown is not a justification for a vigilante justice and mob murder by villagers esp. of a person who was probably mentally ill. The villagers must be held accountable, if Peru's reputation to the world is to be restored. Peruvians probably trade on westerners coming in to "find enlightenment" and leave money. Had the murdered man been exploited? How much money had the sons of a shaman "borrowed" from him and on what promise?

      @@dorotheagr Nothing that happened in this tragic event has any bearing on Peru's reputation , unless one wishes to be completely delusional when it comes to the facts. Even his friends and family that are painting him in the best light , all acknowledge that he was unhinged , disappeared for long periods of time, and returned " in a darker place" , each time he came back.
      What is undeniable from what we know is that he was well tolerated in the village, having been caught lurking and turned in to the police repeatedly. But even with what happened, those that were there talked to reporters, even though they lost someone very special to them, and it was foreigners that brought death to their village, they still were nice and showed the Fifth Estate team around.
      You ask had he been exploited, how much was he owed? What seems clear from both sides is that he continued to see that elderly woman that lived a long life and needed no guards until this lunatic continued to seek her help. She did not owe him money, so how much a different person owed was irrelevant. He could have gone to police for something other than a gun if he was owed, and the real tragedy is that a little old lady thought no man would shoot her in the middle of the day, when she was unarmed, but he was clearly that big a POS......They should have let police take care of him, but they probably and understandably believed that a foreigner could kill a defenseless old woman and just bribe the police, seeing as how they had graciously not hurt him and reported him numerous times without it bringing them any safety, in fact the exact opposite....
      It is almost a certainty that the little old woman was a positive force in the lives of those around her, whereas no one would have been surprised if Sebastian was already dead.

    I hadn't heard about this incident. Personally, I'm pained mostly for the villagers. Most Westerners, b/c we don't live in that manner, have zero idea how deeply these people are connected to one another, how important a shaman is to a community, both for spiritual & medical purposes. Yet they watched as their beloved matriarch was gunned down. Of course, their natural reaction -- b/c of the murder & undoubtedly, due to how much trouble Sebastian had already been causing in the village, due to the fact they feared him -- was to kill him. Now, they're left to deal not only with the death of their spiritual leader/healer, but also with the legal ramifications of what the four men did to Sebastian as well as media interference & Westerners judging their culture/way of life.
    Sebastian was obviously an unstable person. Even his initial video, though it was clear he was a caring soul, presented as somewhat 'off'. He was troubled. That was obvious. His family should have taken measures to have him hospitalized and/or treated for mental illness & prevented his returning to Peru, even if that meant involuntarily committing him. I know how difficult that can be, but it's what was needed. Now, they're left to live with the consequences. Denying that he had the gun, not believing that he actually murdered Olivia isn't helping anything. Those villagers had no reason to lie about what happened. There's paperwork that proves he bought the gun. There are other witness reports of him mentioning guns. There was gunshot residue on his hand/sleeve. He was high and/or mentally ill, & he killed the woman, & then he was killed in retaliation or even perhaps some last ditch effort at self-defense (not in a legal sense, but in the sense the villagers were probably terrified of him, & they reached a breaking point, trying to protect themselves & their families). I'm sorry for the loss of Sebastian, but to be honest, I'm more sorry for Olivia & the villagers. This troubled young man brought his issues to a people who had nothing to do with his problems. I know his family/friends are in pain, but it'd be helpful & more healing for all involved if they could just accept the truth & express sincere remorse/compassion for Olivia & those who loved her. I hope they get to that point.

    Sebastian, was known to the villagers, not a welcomed individual. The parents who “knew” their son were not able to stop Sebastian from going back to Peru. Respect the people’s traditions and respect the law that rules there. The law in Canada is not the law in Peru. We are talking about two completely different cultures. These people lost a very important person. They had reported Sebastian to the police in Peru. Please understand that there is much corruption within police back in Peru and much more in Pucallpa where all these incidents occurred. The young policeman who sold his gun to Sebastian did it rightfully. They don’t know any other way. Before judging the young policeman, people must learn more about the law and rules wherever they go. It was not his responsibility to check if Sebastian had a license. Remember, Peru is a different and independent country and for tight communities like this, Sebastian was an intruder and murderer.

    I think some Westerners feel like they were left adrift by the decline that Western Christianity has undergone in the last 300 years.. They have a sober enough grasp of the situation to realize that their ancestral worldview exceeds the bounds of credulity, but rather than taking an honest, if existentially painful, look at the situation and its implications for faith or superstition in general, they jump ship to some other belief structure. Psychedelics are extremely fascinating, but devoting one's life to constantly using them is no better than dogmatic religion. The "white shaman" trope is a worn path for those that feel their culture is spiritually deficient. This guy needed non-alternative psychological help. Psychological science has its issues but it has demonstrable positive effects on a number of disorders, like depression for instance, through a combination of medication and therapeutic help.
