An inquest hears that a shaman healer and the woman’s partner did not disclose that she had ingested magic mushrooms, despite being concerned for her safety. According to the information presented, both the healer and the partner allegedly chose not to inform medical staff, with the matter described as being driven by self-preservation rather than helping the woman. The inquest is considering what was said, what was withheld, and whether any omissions affected the response to the woman’s death. The shaman is accused of lying to avoid consequences, and the partner is also alleged to have withheld the relevant details from medics. The reporting describes the incident as a mushroom-related death in which the key issue before the inquest is the failure to communicate the type of substance involved. The inquest’s focus remains on the circumstances surrounding the woman’s ingestion, the actions taken by those present, and the information available to medical responders at the time.
