The Lionel Luckhoo Dossier

Early in 1978, Jones contracted with Lionel Luckhoo, famed Guyanese lawyer and politician, to help him deal with the legal proceedings in Georgetown regarding the custody battle over John Victor Stoen. Many of the letters he sent to Jones and summaries of meetings between Peoples Temple personnel and Luckhoo were preserved in the FBI files. The documents included here are partial and are transcribed for the first time.
