Jim Jones faces bad publicity for the first time, when Lester Kinsolving writes an eight page series on The Peoples Temple. Jones would escape these articles, but find himself on the radar of the LAPD. Jim Jones also faces a defection from The Peoples Temple that makes him become more strict on members. As a result punishments take a drastic turn.
