This episode looks back on the mass murder in Jonestown, Guyana by Jim Jones. The 2018 documentary on Hulu and produced by ABC talks with some of Jones’ son and a few survivors of Jonestown to build the story of what happened and give insight into what led to the tragic deaths of 900+ people. We take a critical look at the documentary and what it brings to the table for this mystifying story.
