The emails were released as part of the final batch of the controversial Epstein files on January 30 by the Department of Justice (DOJ).
The release of these documents was driven by the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which mandated a large-scale public disclosure of federal records related to Jeffrey Epstein.
The Epstein Files Transparency Act was passed by Congress and signed into law on November 19 last year, requiring the Department of Justice to release all unclassified records.

While portions of the files were released in batches between December 19 and 23 last year, the vast majority remained undisclosed at the time and were only made public in January this year.
The new emails have alleged that Epstein grew Angel’s Trumpet plants from the genus Brugmansia or Datura, which contain a highly toxic substance called scopolamine.
The substance is often referred to as "Devil’s Breath" or the "zombie dr*g," due to its ability to induce extreme suggestibility, memory loss, and even loss of free will.

In a March 3, 2014, email to a contact named Ann Rodriguez, Epstein specifically inquired about his “trumpet plants at nursery,” telling Ann to ask someone named “Chris” about the plants.
The recipient replied, “Will do.”
Epstein also received a forwarded article link and video in 2015 detailing the effects of scopolamine, with the subject line, “Scopolamine: Powerful dr*g growing in the forests of Colombia that ELIMINATES free will.”

The article was a 2012 Daily Mail report with the same headline as the email’s subject line.
These exchanges suggest that the convicted s*x offender was likely aware of scopolamine’s ability to cause deep confusion, hallucinations, and even “wipe” a person’s memory.
The documents also included a forwarded 2022 victim impact statement detailing a 2014 incident in which the victim alleged they were dru**ed with scopolamine, resulting in extreme drowsiness and memory loss surrounding the event.

While Epstein’s name was not mentioned in the victim statement itself, it reportedly appeared in a now-deleted Facebook link attached to the email.
One social media user reacted to the resurfaced emails in the files, writing, “This whole thing just keeps getting sicker and sicker by the day.”
Another added, “Epstein has absolutely ruined the world. Just depressing at this point and endless.”
“Yup, the only dr*g that makes you succumb to the power of suggestion,” wrote one netizen in the comments of a viral X discussion

“Scopolamine, aka Devil's Breath. Allegedly, this stuff will make you empty out your bank account with no memory. The scariest part is you look fine, no one can tell you're under its spell.”
Others drew comparisons between Epstein’s plants and their alleged use on victims to the 2024 film Blink Twice, starring Channing Tatum and directed by Zoë Kravitz.

One netizen questioned, “Are we sure Blink Twice wasn’t made about this dude?”
A second added, “Jeffrey Epstein's emails reveal him growing trumpet flowers in his greenhouse. Plants notorious for mind-altering, hallucinogenic effects. Sound familiar? In Blink Twice, a mysterious island flower (turned perfume) wipes victims' memories of ab*se, letting predators reset the clock. Coincidence?”

A third commenter wrote, “Yeah, that movie freaked me out. A little too real. Especially now.”
“So is this how Epstein brainwashed people into submission?”

Blink Twice centers on the use of a botanical dr*g on a private island to control victims and wipe their memories.
In the film, the antagonist uses a perfume derived from an island flower to erase the memories of women he and his friends a**ault.
The storyline also explores how predators use wealth and “forgotten” trauma to reset their victims’ lives.
However, despite the speculation, there has been no report that the film actually drew inspiration from the Epstein case, even though his crimes were publicly known during the writing and filming process.
As for scopolamine, while it is dangerous in high doses, it also has legitimate medical uses.
It is widely used in medicine, primarily as an anticholinergic agent to prevent motion sickness and treat postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV).
According to the Cleveland Clinic, scopolamine can also “treat symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome and Parkinson’s disease.”
“Scopolamine is a terrifying dr*g… And how much damage to other victims is undeniably tremendous,” wrote one netizen
