SAN FRANCISCO---One thing remembered by most of those through whose hands Ruthie May Quinn passed was that her arrest record was eight pages long---arrests for prostitution, marijuana, lewd conduct, petty theft and mail theft.
About 18 months ago, Miss Quinn, who is 38 years old, was a featured exhibit of the People's Temple, which asserted that it ran a superlatively effective program for the rehabilitation of criminals.
Now, because she is easily identifiable and because records can be obtained showing how she came into the Rev. Jim Jones's orbit, her story provides a means of discovering how the People's Temple sometimes got immigrants [sic-emigrates] to move to Jonestown, Guyana.
Her story was the featured one taken from a list of 22 Temple members who were in Guyana after being caught as criminals in the United States.. It was printed in the August 1977 issue of the Temple paper, The People's Forum.
[...]
But they listened when the Temple representatives spoke about the agricultural project in South America where the most incorrigible misfits had become productive workers and constructive citizens in a cooperative community.
The fact is that it was a Beverly Hills lawyer, Elliott L. Aheroni, and not a People's Temple lawyer, who represented Miss Quinn when she went before Judge Warren J. Ferguson of Federal District Court in Los Angeles in July 1977.
Also, she had taken part in People's Temple activities for only six weeks before she appeared to plead guilty to two counts based on theft of welfare checks from mailboxes.
[..]
Mr. Aheroni, the defense counsel, said that several persons from People's Temple appeared in the courtroom, and that some of them spoke with Judge Ferguson.
One of them was Sandra Bradshaw, a prominent figure in the Temple since the early 1970's when she and her husband joined.
There are other indications that members of the People's Temple who worked in probation departments funneled likely candidates toward probationary sentences in Jonestown.
The San Francisco Examiner reported that Superior Court Judge David Dolgin of Contra Costa County had said that one such case had been processed by him without his being told that the probation officer was a leader of the People's Temple.

December 28, 1978, New York Times, Probation Sentences Ended in Death in Jonestown; An Alternative to Jail, by Wallace Turner,
SAN FRANCISCO---One thing remembered by most of those through whose hands Ruthie May Quinn passed was that her arrest record was eight pages long---arrests for prostitution, marijuana, lewd conduct, petty theft and mail theft.
About 18 months ago, Miss Quinn, who is 38 years old, was a featured exhibit of the People's Temple, which asserted that it ran a superlatively effective program for the rehabilitation of criminals.
Now, because she is easily identifiable and because records can be obtained showing how she came into the Rev. Jim Jones's orbit, her story provides a means of discovering how the People's Temple sometimes got immigrants [sic-emigrates] to move to Jonestown, Guyana.
Her story was the featured one taken from a list of 22 Temple members who were in Guyana after being caught as criminals in the United States.. It was printed in the August 1977 issue of the Temple paper, The People's Forum.
[...]
But they listened when the Temple representatives spoke about the agricultural project in South America where the most incorrigible misfits had become productive workers and constructive citizens in a cooperative community.
The fact is that it was a Beverly Hills lawyer, Elliott L. Aheroni, and not a People's Temple lawyer, who represented Miss Quinn when she went before Judge Warren J. Ferguson of Federal District Court in Los Angeles in July 1977.
Also, she had taken part in People's Temple activities for only six weeks before she appeared to plead guilty to two counts based on theft of welfare checks from mailboxes.
[..]
Mr. Aheroni, the defense counsel, said that several persons from People's Temple appeared in the courtroom, and that some of them spoke with Judge Ferguson.
One of them was Sandra Bradshaw, a prominent figure in the Temple since the early 1970's when she and her husband joined.
There are other indications that members of the People's Temple who worked in probation departments funneled likely candidates toward probationary sentences in Jonestown.
The San Francisco Examiner reported that Superior Court Judge David Dolgin of Contra Costa County had said that one such case had been processed by him without his being told that the probation officer was a leader of the People's Temple.
