I'm 35% ($1240) toward raising $3500 through fundly.com for Kyle's U.S. autopsy report. It was a blow to my family to learn recently that the Peruvian shaman got off with probation within the Peru criminal justice system. Shaman Mancoluto lied to my daughter, Marion, and her mother, told them Kyle wandered off disillusioned down the road pulling his suitcase on wheels. Truth is Mancoluto, after 24 hours non-attendance, found my son dead, then carried or dragged my precious son like an animal further into the jungle and buried him, dug up later by the Peruvian police after the shaman confessed.

This is why I'm angry: a NY stockbroker had a transformative experience through shaman Mancoluto. The stockbroker's wealth and newly found spiritual transformation was the financial backing behind the creation of Shimbre Center, where my son died. The stockbroker then went back to NY, leaving a problem he didn't care about in the jungle.

This stockbroker had been warned about unsafe conditions at the Peru Shimbre Center over two years before Kyle's death; that his shaman Mancoluto believed himself to be a 5th generation Martian and could take care of, via Martian ESP, ayahuasca participants walking into the jungle largely alone, which accounts for my son Kyle not being found for 24 hours.

Everything on their Shimbre website and in their professionally done 90 minute film documentary, 'Stepping Into The Fire,' emphasized a very safe environment. Kyle's triplet sister, Marion, told me Kyle was obsessed this past summer watching 'Stepping Into The Fire.'

I have a lawyer on contingency willing to take this case further. In order for that to begin, I need the full autopsy report.

This story gets a little wilder and weirder every time I hear it.

Blistering Tryptamine Apocalypse...

Stay with it.

First published in July 2011, 'To Live Outside the Law' is a book of many facets. It is part personal memoir of the ’60s-’70s psychedelic scene, part ‘true crime’-style insider account of the Operation Julie escapade, subsequent bust and jail time, and also a larger meditation on the cultural and spiritual impact on humanity of that most potent and exotic of illegal substances—LSD.

The book is tightly and economically written, telling us enough but without going into burgeoning detail, so that a large swathe of time is covered efficiently in its near 300 pages. The structure takes the time-honoured form of two interwoven strands, the first starting with the Julie bust and continuing on through the legal proceeding and imprisonment, and the second dealing with Leaf’s past life up to the bust. It works very well, with the unrelenting downbeat dourness of the former strand contrasting strikingly with the colour of the latter; and the two synergise together beautifully to answer the book’s central question, poised on its cover: How did I get into this mess?
