Jim Jones

The details of Jim Jones’s wedding to Marceline Baldwin belied the bizarre twists their life together would take.

According to a report in Variety, Jim Jones, the infamous Hoosier who led more than 900 of his followers to a mass suicide in 1978, will be the focus in Season 1 of a yet-to-be-named anthology crime drama (think Fargo) for the cable channel.

Yes, we know: Guiding 913 well-meaning followers—including hundreds of children—to their deaths is absolutely indefensible. So this is not an apology for Jim Jones.
