They collapsed, not just laid down. It was a mess of bodies everywhere........

While on Chorale tour with JCM some years back, in Los Angeles I met a preacher named Hue Forstson. He was holding services in the hotel I was checking into.
I invited him to our services that night to which he came. We became friends and still stay in touch. He was the body guard of Jim Jones and his wife. He lost his wife and child over in Guyana. He himself was spared.
Here is a link to one story he shared about Jones.

This story is so sad....and there were some who believed him, however, at the end, it appears that people wanted to bail.
