[Name deleted] [Harold Cordell]<\/span> was met at Pan American Airlines, Hangar 17, John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFKIA) by SA [name deleted], Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and SA [name deleted], United States (US) Secret Service. [Cordell]<\/span> was advised of the identities of the interviewers and the nature of the inquiry. [Cordell]<\/span> then furnished the following information:<\/p>\n

[Cordell]<\/span> first heard of Rev. Jim Jones in 1955, [words deleted] [Partial release in Serial 1681-13: years old and was graduating from High School]<\/span> in Indianapolis, Indiana. [Several words deleted], who died at Jonestown, Guyana, and a grandmother, who died of natural causes in Indianapolis several years ago, had joined Jones’ Church and encouraged [Cordell]<\/span> to visit the Church. [Cordell]<\/span> began attending services and shortly thereafter he joined the Church, which [Cordell]<\/span> recalls being known as the People’s Temple Full Gospel Church-Interdenominational. [Cordell]<\/span> was attracted to the Church and its pastor, Jones, because it espoused strong Bible teachings and practical Christianity such as helping the poor, visiting the sick and following the actions of the Apostles.<\/p>\n

[Cordell]<\/span> was an active member of the Peoples Temple (PT) during this period from the mid-1950\u2019s into the early 1960\u2019s, while the Church was still in Indianapolis and one of his principal duties for the Church was in the position of [several works deleted]. At this time, the Youth Group was not engaged in any physical training, but merely participated in Bible classes, special services and held occasional parties.<\/p>\n

In approximately 1952, at a time when [Cordell]<\/span>\u2019s interest in the PT was waning, Jones announced that he received a prophecy of nuclear war and destruction of the Northern Hemisphere and was therefore moving the Church to Brazil. According to [Cordell]<\/span>, Jones had read an article in Esquire Magazine, which listed Brazil as one of a number of areas where people have the best chance of survival in the event of nuclear warfare. Accompanying Jones to Brazil was Jack<\/p>\n

[Page 2]
\nBQ 89-495<\/p>\n

Beam, his wife Rheaviana Beam and their daughter, Joyce. The elder Beams died in Jonestown, while Joyce, who was in Venezuela during the mass deaths, is currently in the United States (US).<\/p>\n

Approximately one year elapsed before Jones and the Beams returned to Indianapolis from Brazil. At this time, [Cordell]<\/span> resumed active membership in the Church. Shortly thereafter in 1963, Jones moves the Church to Ukiah, California, a town which was also mentioned in the Esquire article as safe from nuclear warfare. Within two or three weeks, [Cordell]<\/span> was among the 50 to 60 persons who followed Jones to Ukiah. Other members arrived later. [Cordell]<\/span>\u2019s reason for moving to California was because [Partial release in 1552-2: his wife, [name deleted], whom he had met and married in the Church]<\/span> [name deleted] was a devout follower of Jones and desired to go. [Release in 1681-13: Richard Cordell]<\/span> who was also a Church member, had preceded him to California by about three weeks, and assisted [Cordell]<\/span> in resettling. [Richard Cordell]<\/span> was a Church member for approximately 18 to 20 years, but had left the Church in mid 1977, after having become disillusioned with Jones.<\/p>\n

After the PT had resettled in Ukiah, [Cordell]<\/span> began to notice that Jones and the Church were gradually changing. Jones’ teachings became more political. Jones placed the blame for the ills of the world on the rich, the ruling class, the President of the US and especially in later years, on President Nixon to the extent that Jones encouraged support be given to any of Nixon’s political opponents.<\/p>\n

At Church meetings, Jones became increasingly intolerant of opposing viewpoints. Eventually those who dissented or attempted to argue a point were subjected to public humiliation by Jones or his assistants; in particular, Richard Trapp [Tropp] and Edith Roller, both former college professors who were capable debaters. Both of these individuals died at Jonestown.<\/p>\n

The complexion of the Youth Group also changed. In California, the position of Youth Leader was held by Mike Cartmell, who was married to Jones’ adopted daughter, Suzanne. The Youth Group now engaged in physical training,<\/p>\n

[Page 3]
\nBQ 89-495<\/p>\n

including athletic activities, hikes, night hikes, and military type training. [Cordell]<\/span> suspected that the training was leading to self-defense and weapons instruction, but was unaware of this actually occurring. Cartmell and his wife, Suzanne both quit the Church prior to its move to Jonestown, over a conflict with Jones, who attributed their leaving the Church to their desire to live “high on the hog.”<\/p>\n

[Cordell]<\/span>\u2019s personal life also underwent strain during the years that the PT was situated in Ukiah. He and his wife were growing increasingly incompatible. During 1974 to 1975, in addition to his full-time employment, [Cordell]<\/span> worked [2 lines deleted]. The strain caused by the amount of time spent away from his wife and [Cordell]<\/span>\u2019s children, in addition to the economic hardship of tithing 25% of his gross salary as required by the Church, finally resulted in a 1975 divorce for [Cordell]<\/span>.<\/p>\n

In 1976, the Church moved from Ukiah to San Francisco. Jones\u2019 reason for the move was to escape the racist attacks of the local citizens of Ukiah. [Cordell]<\/span> advised that there was, in fact, a growing animosity in Ukiah toward the large influx of blacks brought into the community by the PT.<\/p>\n

After the move to San Francisco, Jones grew even more dictatorial in his running of the Church. [Cordell]<\/span> was a member of the Planning Commission of the Church. This group which consisted of longtime Church members, acted as a Board of Directors and dealt in Church decisions and policy. The Planning Commission was increased by Jones to approximately 100 members, but were in effect a rubber stamp, since Jones held veto power over their decisions.<\/p>\n

Jones’ increasingly authoritarian role in the Church was reflected in his more stringent pronouncements. Physical abuse in the form of spankings with paddles or belts and boxing matches in which an experienced athlete would fight the person to be punished. This physical abuse took place at membership meetings which were compulsory and open only to card-carrying Church members.<\/p>\n

[Page 4]
\nBQ 89-495<\/p>\n

Jones began to threaten members not to leave the Church. At first he cautioned those who wished to leave, to make sure they settled more than 500 miles from the Church, but he amended this rule, threatening members not to leave the Church at all. Those who left the Church were rumored to be under surveillance by members who were specially trained. This select group which was not known to [Cordell]<\/span> by any name, was composed principally of women and included Patty Cartmell, mother of Mike Cartmell and believed deceased at Jonestown; Carolyn Layton, divorced wife of Larry Layton and believed dead at Jonestown; Jack Beam and possibly Paula Adams, who is still in Georgetown, Guyana. The membership of the PT did not discuss the activities of this group.<\/p>\n

When Jones announced his desire to move the Church to Jonestown in Guyana, [Cordell]<\/span> had grave reservations. Jones gave many reasons for the move, including the chance to lead a simple agrarian life, free from harassment, especially for black members, and the opportunity to escape the fear of nuclear warfare. [Cordell]<\/span> was among those who voted against the move, but Jones prevailed and two teams were sent to Guyana, one to Georgetown and the other to the interior, where they would set up the grounds for Jonestown. Church members began moving to Jonestown in 1977 and [Loretta Cordell]<\/span> [Harold Cordell]<\/span>\u2019s former wife and children moved there in the Fall of that year.<\/p>\n

Because he wished to be near his children, [Cordell]<\/span> overcame his reluctance to leave the US and in January, 1978, he arrived in Jonestown. He was extremely disappointed in the settlement, but was told within his first week there that the road to Jonestown led in but did not leave out and that he could only leave when dead. Shortly afterward he saw a member beaten for attempting to leave or planning to leave, both proscribed activities. [Cordell]<\/span> observed similar meetings frequently. He described the atmosphere as that of a concentration camp with armed guards or security men, as they were known, preventing escape, although their stated purpose was to protect the camp from outside aggressors. In addition to beatings, those attempting to escape or other offenders were sometimes for several days being placed in “the box”, a four foot by eight foot by seven foot cubicle placed partially underground. This punishment of “total sensory deprivation” was followed by counseling.<\/p>\n

[Page 5]
\nBQ 89-495<\/p>\n

At the settlement Jones was like a king and was always surrounded by two or three security men with others on the periphery. The security men were armed with either rifles, shotguns, or handguns. Jones himself carried a handgun which was either a .38 caliber or a .357 Magnum.<\/p>\n

Jones talked frequently about dying and seemed to be obsessed with this topic. On one occasion, Jones held a long meeting in which he stated that things were hopeless and the members of the PT had no choice but to take their own lives. At this point, a flavored water drink was brought out and everybody drank it. Many thought the drink was poison until after they had drunk it. [Cordell]<\/span> advised that this activity is best described as a suicide drill.<\/p>\n

On other occasions, Jones announced alerts on the camp public address system. All the members would then hasten to the pavilion where Jones would announce that the settlement was faced with some specific emergency situation of a threatening nature. Attendance was taken at these meetings, which were called “White night” or “Alphas” and security men with weapons were positioned throughout the crowd. Jones would then elaborate on the nature of the threat or emergency and the remedies to be taken.<\/p>\n

On occasion, visitors or government officials would arrive at Jonestown. These visitors were handled by a special group, who were supposedly trained for it. The group consisted of Mike Prokes, Tim Carter, Lee Ingram, Dick Tropp, Harriet Tropp, Carolyn Layton, Marie [Maria] Katsaris and Johnny Jones.<\/p>\n

During the visit of US Congressman Leo Ryan, the settlement members were aware of his coming approximately five days in advance when they were told of it at a nightly meeting. Jones described Ryan as a racist, a troublemaker and one who was known to be on the side of oppression of poor people.<\/p>\n

[Page 6]
\nBQ 89-495<\/p>\n

Specific instructions were given regarding Ryan’s group. Members were to stay away unless specifically instructed to speak. Members were permitted to answer if questioned, but were warned to be positive in their remarks about Jonestown, since their lives and the lives of their children were hanging on the results.<\/p>\n

Once, in an agitated state, Jones made the comment “Somebody ought to shoot Ryan.” Again one or two days before Ryan’s arrival, Jones said that his efforts to thwart Ryan’s visit failed and that he was coming, but perhaps his plane would fall from the sky.<\/p>\n

When Ryan arrived, he was shown around the camp and on the first day was actually given a programmed tour and presentation. That night, Ryan, his assistant [Jackie Speier] and the two attorneys, Mark Lane and Charles Gary [Garry] slept in Jonestown.<\/p>\n

On the morning of November 18, 1978, [Cordell]<\/span> met with his friends, [names deleted; according to the participants, the families who met were the Bogues, the Parks and the Simons<\/span>]. They had previously talked to each other of attempting to leave Jonestown, but at this point they seriously decided to leave. They all felt that something bad would happen because of Jones’ frequent references to Ryan. They weighed and then dismissed the possibility of traveling through the jungle to get help. Finally, two of the Bogue children approached them and said that the Parks family had told Ryan they wish to leave Jonestown. [Several words deleted] then went to the pavilion and told Ryan that they also wished to leave. Ryan and Richard Dwyer advised them that they would be afforded protection and that they would leave with the Ryan party. [Cordell]<\/span> was very skeptical when he heard that Larry Layton was among those who wanted to leave.<\/p>\n

Ryan was originally to remain in Jonestown until all those wishing to leave were boarded on the planes and leaving, but a knife attack by Don Sly on Ryan caused the congressman to depart earlier. [Cordell]<\/span> believed that Jones ordered the knife attack to get Ryan out of camp so he could be killed at the airport at Port Kaituma.<\/p>\n

\nBQ 89-495<\/p>\n

[Cordell]<\/span> and the other \u201cdefectors”, as those wishing to leave were called by Jones and the other members, were taken in a dump truck driven by Eddy [Eddie] Crenshaw to the Port Kaituma Airport. After dropping the people off at the planes, the dump truck went to the end of the runway, where it turned around facing the planes and stopped. As he was boarding [Release in 1681-13: the larger plane, the De Havilland,<\/span> [Cordell]<\/span> noticed a tractor-trailer pulling up next to the dump truck at the end of the airport.<\/p>\n

After boarding the plane, [Cordell]<\/span> [Release in 1681-13: was sitting]<\/span> in his seat when he heard the tractor-trailer approaching quickly. Looking out the window, [Cordell]<\/span> observed the tractor-trailer pull abreast of the plane on the left side, approximately 60 feet away. He then saw three armed men taking aim from the tractor-trailer. [Cordell]<\/span> knew the three men as Tom Kice, who was carrying an automatic pistol, possibly a .45 caliber; Albert Touchette, who was armed with a rifle; and Joseph Wilson, who had a shotgun. He called for everyone on board to duck down. After the shooting commenced, [Cordell]<\/span> glanced out the window and some of these three individuals firing. [Cordell]<\/span> estimated that the shooting lasted about two minutes, after which the tractor-trailer drove around to the right side of the plane. The shooting resumed on the right side for approximately two additional minutes. When the shooting stopped, [Cordell]<\/span> heard the tractor-trailer pulling away and when he looked out the pilot\u2019s window, he saw it heading back into the jungle towards Jonestown.<\/p>\n

[Cordell]<\/span> then helped the others to disembark from the plane. He told the survivors to go into the bush, since he was sure that the attackers would return. He went into the bush with the children and they spent the night near the airport at Port Kaituma. The next day they were discovered by Guyanese officials.<\/p>\n

[Cordell]<\/span> had no knowledge of any written or oral oaths made by members of the PT.<\/p>\n

\nLarry Layton (in time of crisis)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

[Cordell]<\/span> never heard of the term angels.<\/p>\n

[Cordell]<\/span> advised that he had been a member of the Planning Commission in California, but he stated that it was disbanded when the move to Guyana was effected. When it existed, it consisted of approximately 100 people. He advised however that there was an inner core of persons close to Jones who assisted him in planning and decision-making. These individuals are:<\/p>\n

Terry Buford
\nMarie Katsaris
\nCarolyn Layton
\nPatricia Cartmell
\nKaren Layton
\nJack Beam
\nJohnny Jones
\nLee Ingram
\nGene Chaikin
\nHarriet Tropp<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The only indication which [Cordell]<\/span> has of influence peddling is that Paula Adams was living in Georgetown with a Guyanese official in order to secure favorable treatment in things relating to the PT. While in California, Jones had befriended many politicians, including Mayor [George] Moscone of San Francisco; Harvey Milk, another San Francisco elected official, Governor Gerry [Jerry] Brown of California, the District Attorney of San Francisco, and Mayor [Tom] Bradley of Los Angeles. Some of these officials visited the PT Church in San Francisco or Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

[Page 10]
\nBQ 89-495<\/p>\n

Another public official who was a close friend of Jones was Lieutenant Governor Dimalley [Mervyn Dymally] of California who visited Jonestown twice and praised it.<\/p>\n

[Cordell]<\/span> knew of no fugitives or persons who have committed crimes for which they are not charged, as being members of the PT.<\/p>\n

[Cordell]<\/span> advised that an individual named Timofayev [Feodor Timofeyev] who was an official of the Russian Embassy in Guyana, visited the settlement at Jonestown. Jones later said that he invited the Russian official in order to ask him if the Soviet government would provide an alternative place to relocate in case the PT required this assistance.<\/p>\n

[Cordell]<\/span> had no specific knowledge of the method whereby weapons were shipped to Jonestown, nor did he know of any cache of weapons, although Jones boasted of having a large store of weapons.<\/p>\n

[Cordell]<\/span> stated that some of those at Jonestown engaged in firearms training in the jungle, but he did not know how extensive this training was. He never heard it weapons training while the Church was located in California.<\/p>\n

[Cordell]<\/span> advised that if the PT or Jones were attacked verbally, that the plan called for maintaining a defensive posture. In the event of physical attack, the ultimate defense was mass suicide rather than being overrun.<\/p>\n

[Cordell]<\/span> possessed no knowledge of any officials in any government or international body being the targets for murder by anyone from the PT.<\/p>\n

[Cordell]<\/span> had no knowledge of any relocation plans in the event of mass suicide, but he stated that in the event that the Church was attacked, Jones had said there would always be someone to avenge the Catholic Church against defectors, traitors and the like.<\/p>\n

[Page 11]
\nBQ 89-495<\/p>\n

[Cordell]<\/span> had no specific knowledge of preparation for the assassination of Congressman Ryan, but he believes that these individuals would not have acted without authorization from Jones.<\/p>\n

[Cordell]<\/span> stated that if an assassination plot existed, the persons who would estimate as most likely to carry out are:<\/p>\n

Steve Jones
\nTim Jones \u201cDay” a.k.a. Tim Tupper
\nLou Jones
\nJimmy Jones, Jr.
\nLee Ingram
\nTim Carter
\nMike Brooks [Prokes]
\nCalvin Douglas
\nSandra Bradshaw
\nJean Brown
\nLeona Collier<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

[Cordell]<\/span> had no knowledge of PT radio or business conducted or codes used on the radio. He heard that codes were used on the radio and that it was used frequently. Among those who used the radio were:<\/p>\n

Tim Carter
\nLee Ingram
\nMarie Katsaris
\nTerry Buford
\nCarolyn Layton
\nHarriet Tropp<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

[Cordell]<\/span> had no specific knowledge of a hit list, but he alluded to a vague listing of enemies who would pay for wronging the PT.<\/p>\n

In addition to living with a Guyanese official to obtain favorable treatment for the Church, Paula Adams was also a sexual partner of Jones, according to boasting by Jones which was overheard by [Cordell]<\/span>.<\/p>\n

[Page 12]
\nBQ 89-495<\/p>\n

[Cordell]<\/span> had no knowledge of a primitive nuclear device or bomb at Jonestown, but he did hear rumors that Don Fitch a.k.a. “Doc” was building some sort of cannon or mortar to be used in the defense of the settlement.<\/p>\n

[Cordell]<\/span> advised that Hut C-14 was the cottage where security man and their families lived. There was a cabinet in this cottage whether weapons were kept.<\/p>\n

[Cordell]<\/span> advised that Doctor Lawrence Schact [Laurence Schacht] was in charge of medical care at Jonestown. Schact had attended medical school in Mexico and finished in California. He was in the process of serving his internship when he went to Jonestown and therefore did not receive his license to practice medicine from the State of California. Schact was not acknowledged as a Medical Doctor by Guyanese authorities. The following individual[s] were named by [Cordell]<\/span> as associates of Doctor Schact:<\/p>\n

Joyce Parks \u2013 Nurse Practitioner
\nChristine Young \u2013 Registered Nurse
\nJoyce Rozynko \u2013 Registered Nurse
\nAnnie Moore \u2013 Registered Nurse
\nSharon Cobb \u2013 Pediatric Nurse Practitioner
