VICE travels to Bogotá, Colombia, to investigate scopolamine, a drug notorious for its association with robberies, assaults, and stories of victims losing control of their actions. Through encounters with victims, dealers, and local experts, the investigation examines the effects and criminal use of scopolamine, its origins in poisonous plants, and its legitimate medical applications. It also explores the disturbing stories that have earned it the nickname "The Devil's Breath," while revealing how documented cases of drug-facilitated crime have become intertwined with sensationalized claims, mythology, and urban legends surrounding the drug.
