In early August 2010, she testified, Yeager had sent her "an invitation…to a ceremony outside of the church." This ceremony was to take place at Yeager's home Aug. 20, and be led by "some shamans from Peru." Even though Tripp says she knew it was "a bad decision…to be doing anything outside of the church and I never will do it again, I chose to participate in this ceremony." Tripp says she, Yeager, Frisbie and others drank ayahuasca at this ceremony—and she testified that the night culminated in vomiting, yelling and threats.
