Description

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong examines the famous case of Jim Jones and the massacre in Jonestown, Guyana. Jones was the dynamic leader of The People's Temple cult, who moved his followers to a compound in Guyana to escape scrutiny. When California Congressman Leo Ryan took a group of journalists to investigate the claims the cult members were held against their will, he was assassinated by Jones' followers. This spurred Jones to mass murder and suicide within the compound, leaving over 900 people dead. While many people know about the Jonestown tragedy, Candice illuminates Jim Jones' journey from student pastor in the Methodist church to cult leader.
