May 14, 2012, Alternative Consideration of Jonestown and Peoples Temple, Autopsies,

On 15 December 1978, the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology performed autopsies on seven people who had died in Jonestown on 18 November 1978. These represented the only extensive post-mortem examinations conducted in the United States, and indeed the only examinations beyond the cursory examinations on scores of bodies by Guyana chief pathologist Leslie Mootoo in the first few days after the Jonestown deaths.

Of the seven bodies which were autopsied, the government specified only one – that of Jim Jones – for examination. Four other bodies – those of Maria Katsaris, Carolyn Moore Layton, Ann Elizabeth Moore and Laurence Schacht – were autopsied at the request of their families. The bodies of Violatt Dillard and Richard Castillo were selected at random.

Despite the efforts of the pathologists, the autopsies revealed little about the nature and the manner of the deaths, and most of their conclusions were speculative and/or based upon media accounts of the deaths in Jonestown. The combination of heat and rain in Jonestown had accelerated the decomposition of all the bodies before they were removed. The further delay resulting from negotiations between the U.S. and Guyana governments, and then within the U.S. itself, on how to dispose of the bodies also contributed to the deterioration of physical evidence. The greatest destruction of forensic information occurred, however, when the bodies were embalmed prior to the autopsies.

The reports of the autopsies were released in April 1979, five months after the deaths. The reports follow:

Jim Jones
Maria Katsaris
Carolyn Moore Layton
Ann Elizabeth Moore
Laurence Schacht
Violatt Dillard
Richard Castillo

The autopsy reports appear as the concluding file of the FBI's investigation of Peoples Temple. Absent a document number, the FBI's citation for the document is RYMUR 89-4286 (Autopsies).

An article by Rebecca Moore – the sister of Carolyn Moore Layton and Ann Elizabeth Moore – about the government's handling of the bodies appears here.

Transcript and audiostreaming of Tape Q 042 (the so-called Death Tape), made 18 November 1978.


The following links take you to three different but fairly complete transcripts of the so-called "Death Tape" (FBI No. Q042) which was made in Jonestown on 18 November 1978. A fourth link provides a summary of the contents of the tape, and a comparison with the FBI's summary of the same tape. Differences between the transcripts are minimal.

Additional transcripts of the death tape appeared in several books written soon after the deaths in Jonestown. None claimed to be complete, although they are all substantive. The works include: Mark Lane, The Strongest Poison (New York: Hawthorn, 1982), pp. 199-206. Jonathan Z. Smith, Imagining Religion: From Babylon to Jonestown (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1982), pp. 126-134. Steve Rose, Jesus and Jim Jones: Behind Jonestown (New York: The Pilgrim Press, 1979), pp. 214-227. Links to these excerpts appear below.

Editorial note: Questions have been raised about the authenticity of this tape, due to the fact that a number of edits are audible. Moreover, the suspicion might arise that the tape was "constructed" out of the least objectionable sound bites of the day. Given the fact that other tapes generated by Peoples Temple also contain numerous edits, however; and given the fact that the tape refers to events quite specific to 18 November 1978, it seems likely that the tape is genuine in the sense that it was recorded on 18 November 1978.
