...some victims bore needle marks on their arms and concluded that they had been murdered with cyanide injections. Another inquiry witness, Cult Survivor Stanley Clayton, said that many who drank the cyanide-laced Kool-Aid did so only after Jones had pulled them "up from their seats saying they must go." A number of the dead, moreover, were small children or infirm older people who were probably unaware of what they were drinking.
