November 25, 1978, Lodi News-Sentinel, Guyana Launches Jonestown Probe,
GEORGETOWN, Guyana (UPI)— The government of Guyana began its own investigation into the Jonestown mass suicide Monday, ordering troops into the jungle commune to seek documents and any other clues to the deaths of more than 900 members of a California religious cult.
... the money could be delivered by three members of the cult —Tim Carter, 28, of Boise, Idaho, his brother Mike, 20, and Michael Prokes, 32, of Modesto. They stashed the suitcase in a chicken coop and were picked up by Guyanese authorities. Guyana later confiscated the money
The Guyanese authorities were in on the charade from the beginning. Unless someone was able to eat Bauxite, no "agricultural commune" was going to make it at this site. Try and imagine what would the future have held if there hadn't been a conscribed depopulation?_______________________________________________________________________________

November 26, 1978, The Washington Post, page A-21, Survivor Tells of Suitcase full of Treasure, by Fred Barbash, [pqarchiver] 385 words [Tim Carter]
Carter said he saw the beginning of the mass suicide as groups of sobbing women waited on their knees for the poison.
He saw his own wife among them, their dead child in her arms. "I leaned over her and she said, 'I love you. I love you.' Her body felt very cold.
She was shaking. I think she had already taken the poison."
FUC+KING NECROPHILIAC FREAKS!

The uncertainty ended for Mike Carter late Tuesday night.
The 74-year old received word from the State Department on the last of nine members of Carter's family who were living [in] the Peoples Temple religious settlement, Jonestown, Guyana. The toll: seven dead, including his only daughter, Terry.
[...]
A telephone caller from the State Department in Washington told Carter about 11:30 p.m. that an additional four members of his family were found dead in the northern South American country.
The final list:
His daughter Terry, 24.
Terry's husband, Liu Jones, 22, reportedly the son of the cult's leader, Jim Jones.
Whoa, wait a minute! Were the white people the top layer of the corpse piles like icing on a cake? It will be another 48 hours before the inexorable climb in the body count even begins. The AP List of the dead [See below] published the following day has only 152 names on it, 32 of which are without stated ages. How could one family group or demographic have such sure knowledge about the outcome?

November 22, 1978, The Idaho Statesman, page 1-A, Idahoan's son held in Guyana slayings,
Police Commissioner Lloyd A. Barker estimated 200 to 300 survivors fled into the bush and said some possibly made it to friendly Indian villages. Other sources place the number of survivors at nearly 800.
Estimates of the number of sect members who fled the Jonestown camp Saturday during the ritual of self-destruction by poison ranged from 200 to more than 775. Stephan Jones, son of the Peoples Temple founder, the Rev. Jim Jones, estimated some 500 had gone into the inhospitable rain forest.
Barker said about 40 settlers had been found alive in Jonestown and Port Kaituma, but he gave no breakdown of the figures.
Other C-141 transports from Ft. Benning, Ga., were to deliver UH-1 helicopters to Georgetown while three long-range Navy helicopters were to fly from Roosevelt Roads, Puerto Rico, to Guyana.
Barker said there were indications some of the survivors were working in the jungle and when they returned to the camp and saw the bodies they gathered food supplies and went back into the bush.
Washington, responding to the Guyanese request that all bodies be removed, said C-141 transports would leave Pope Air Force Base in North Carolina carrying grave registration specialists and equipment.
Other C-141 transports from Ft. Benning, Ga., were to deliver UH-1 helicopters to Georgetown while three long-range Navy helicopters were to fly from Roosevelt Roads, Puerto Rico, to Guyana.
A camp survivor, Odell Rhodes, said armed men were stationed in a ring around the assembled congregation at Jonestown Saturday evening as the 46-year-old Jones declared, "The time has come for us to meet in another place!"
The camp doctor and two nurses had prepared the lethal potion in a stainless steel tub and began handing out doses to each resident, Rhodes said. One woman who balked was shouted into submission by the others, he said. After they drank the poison, they went into convulsions, their eyes rolled up, they had difficulty breathing and they were dead in about five minutes, according to Rhodes.
He said he fled before the end of the macabre scene and did not see Jones die.

Police also have under arrest two of Jones' lieutenants, Mike Prokes and Tim Carter, They are being held, without formal charges, as "prime suspects" in connection with the violence at the airstrip and in Jonestown after being arrested in Port Kaituma not far from the airstrip, where police found them carrying guns and more than $1,000 in cash.

Tim Carter, one of the survivors of the Nov. 17 suicide-murders at Jonestown said Jones frequently spoke of relocating the colony in another country. Jones specifically mentioned the Soviet Union about three months ago, calling it the "promised land," said the 28-year-old Carter, whose hometown is Boise, Idaho.
Carter told reporters that Jones had spoken of relocating the Jonestown settlement because it was being "overcrowded" when the population neared 1,000.
But wasn't the crisis brought about because people wanted TO LEAVE?

"I felt evil itself blow into Jonestown when that storm hit," recalls Tim Carter, one of the few settlers to survive that day.Tim Carter acts like his young wife, with infant son, were the ideological equals of 19 jihadists commandeering aircrafts, instead of the inexplicably pitiful, and tragically passive figures they would have to be to get their story straight. Maybe Tim tried to steer a different course for his family--maybe they were dead-set on getting their way. Naturally, when the time came to carry the heavy money he was more than glad to help.
Within hours, Carter would see his wife and son die of cyanide poisoning, two of the more than 900 people Jones led in a murder-suicide ritual of epic proportions.
You have to know that there's really a higher power at work---when after Tim decided to go with his Zephyr theme for the thirtieth anniversary of the endless corrupt dog-and-pony show that's made his career, how should the front-page of this South Carolina newspaper be so unselfconsciously co-opted, if not in the service of exposure?
