PauldoMemberCage fighter 'ripped out heart of training partner'
Jarrod Wyatt also cut out his friend's tongue and ripped off most of his face in a brutal assault that police said looked like a scene from a horror film.
They found the 26 year old standing naked over his friend's body with body parts, including an eyeball, strewn around the blood splattered room.
Wyatt told police he had drunk a cup of tea spiked with hallucinogenic mushrooms and became convinced his close friend Taylor Powell was possessed.
According to an autopsy Powell,21, bled to death after his heart was ripped out.
The coroner said Powell had been alive when the organ was ripped out after his chest had been sliced open with a knife.
Wyatt told the police he thrown the heart into a fire along with other organs that he had removed from the body.
He told investigators he cooked the body parts because he was fearful Powell was still alive and he “needed to stop the Devil.”
Police had been called to the grisly scene after a third friend had witnessed a sudden mood change in Wyatt after they had all ingested wild mushroom tea.
Justin Davis told police he returned to the flat in Klamath, California, to find Wyatt naked and covered from head to toe in blood.
He noticed an eyeball lying in the middle of the floor and saw Powell's mutilated body.
A lawyer representing Wyatt has claimed the wild mushrooms caused him to act in such a violent way and had not control over his actions “My client was trying to silence the devil,” said James Fallman.
“I think he was having a psychotic fit based on the mushrooms he had.”
Wyatt has been charged with first degree murder and torture.
Prosecutors added the torture charge as Powell was still alive when his heart was removed.
cosmicvibrationsMemberHmmmmm… truthiness?

FLAWLESS
VICTORY
HAHAHAHAHAHA EXCELLENT
PauldoMemberHmmmmm… truthiness?
the story has been picked up by major news orgs
cosmicvibrationsMemberOh yeah. Easy to blame drugs.
I didn't do it… I was high!
No, fool. You did it. I have doubts as to whether you were even high. If you're capable of dismembering someone, you're capable of making up bullshit.
Have they found any evidence of this “tea”? …Who'd have thought a cage fighter would be capable of violence?
destroysoundMemberIn a similar drugs/wtf vein:
The use of the drug LSD, or commonly referred to as “acid,” appears to be increasing especially among young adults in Arcata, according to an Arcata Police Department press release issued yesterday.
On April 18, officers responded to a residence to assist the Arcata Mad River Ambulance with a 31-year-old male subject who had just castrated himself. Medical personnel and officers were unable to locate the subject’s testicles. He later told officers that he flushed them down the toilet as he feared they contained “monsters.”
zensphereMembercage fighting and mushrooms don't mix…
esmokahParticipantjust what the psychedelic community needs is another poster boy for the anti-drug movement.
cosmicvibrationsMemberAh, well. My hope is that people will be able to see through the reefer-madness elements of that story. Research is coming.
PauldoMemberA valid point to be made from the story though is that certain persons should not be trying these things…mostly notably those people who are already psychotic. People should have to go through some formal education and evaluation before they get their psychedelic drivers license. Unfortunately a certain percentage of the population doesn't pass their DL test and it's best that they don't get to drive.
zensphereMemberSheesh! It's like a freakin' totalitarian state around here these days.
parenting licenses, psychedelic explorer licenses…
what's next? PMRC ratings for darkpsy? ;D
but seriously. some people should definitely not take psychedelics.
Meditation can make you crazy too…
esmokahParticipantjust stay smart and don't lose your head
PauldoMemberjust stay smart and don't lose your head
…or heart or eyeball or…
esmokahParticipanttouché
cosmicvibrationsMemberYeah, it certainly makes sense that people who are psychotic or otherwise have a latent mental condition should not do these things. (However, how do you know if you have a latent one?)
