After hypnotising an assistant,
Perea told the officers that they
would find the Pueblo mans body
in a canyon cave 40 miles north
east of Walsenburg. He said that
when the man left the other three
hunters, he climbed through a
fence and walked until he fell down
the side of the canyon, injuring
himself.
According to Perea's information
from the spirit world, Mercer then
dragged himself to the cave where
he was unsuccessful in building a
fire and later he froze to death.
The seer drew maps of the area
from the instructions he said he
received from the spirits.
Also aiding him in his search
