Pt. 5 - Jonestown: The Life and Death of Peoples Temple

This is part 5 of the entire PBS Documentary of Jonestown: The Life and Death of Peoples Temple. Featuring never-before-seen footage, this documentary delivers a startling new look at the Peoples Temple, headed by preacher Jim Jones who, in 1978, led more than 900 members to Guyana, where he orchestrated a mass suicide via tainted punch.

You know, id like to see some sort of test like the trueman show where they set up a fake city or something, and see just how fucked up a man can become if EVERYONE does EVERYTHING the guy wants like they did with jim jones, like just to see just how fucking evil and awful a person can become left to their own devices.. but you know, i think in alot of ways Jim jones pretty much reached the top of scum

@nosorab3 According to IMDB and Amazon---- this was made in 2006. Debbie is 58 years old now (check her IMDB - her date of birth is Feb 7th, 1953).... So 5 years ago -- she was 53 years old at the time. She looks A LOT younger. She was just a teenager when she joined the People's Temple..and when Jim Jones had his way with her.

This guy was sick. He said that society was flawed, and indeed it is, yet he made one ever more so. He wasn't truely a leader if he had to trick people into following him and set ridiculous rules... How pathetic
