More shocking information from the Epstein files has brought to light the truth of some of the world’s darkest and most twisted actions imaginable.
In a report by the Daily Mail, it was noted that within the emails from Mar. 3, 2014, Epstein sent a message to Ann Rodriguez, saying, “ask chris about my trumpet plants at nursery….” This line alone suggests something dangerous Epstein may have been messing with: Angel’s Trumpet plants.
As the Daily Mail stated, these plants, which are also called “Devil’s Breath,” are a shrub that has scopolamine, which they say is a “potent psychoactive compound that can cause serious effects on the nervous system.” If used in high amounts, a person could become “highly suggestible and almost catatonic.”

Terrifying, right? This wasn’t the end of Epstein’s interest in the plants, however. The report states that nearly a year later, on Jan. 27, 2015, Epstein received a forwarded message with the subject line: “Scopolamine: Powerful drug growing in the forests of Colombia that ELIMINATES free will.”
The thought of free will being altered is simply demonic. The ability to choose is one of the most sacred gifts God has given humanity. In the Garden of Eden, the Lord Himself honored human agency—even when He knew it would be misused. Any attempt to chemically override a person’s will, to render them suggestible, compliant or stripped of their God-given autonomy, mirrors the very nature of witchcraft and sorcery condemned throughout Scripture. Control, domination and manipulation are not fruits of the Holy Spirit; they are works of darkness.
Yet even in the face of such disturbing revelations, there is hope. Scripture reminds us that “there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed” (Luke 8:17). What was done in darkness is being dragged into the light. The exposure of these alleged actions is not accidental; it is evidence of God’s restraining hand and His commitment to justice. Evil thrives in secrecy, but it trembles when truth shines.
What the enemy may have intended for bondage, God can use for awakening. As these revelations continue to surface, the church must stand firm in truth, intercede for justice and declare that no scheme of darkness can override the purposes of God. The light is shining, and darkness cannot overcome it.
