Diane Sawyer reports on the kind, intelligent people who walked away from their daily lives, careers, families, friends and even young children to join a group led by Marshall Herff Applewhite.
Former members who shared their experiences for the first time, loved ones of deceased followers and authorities who worked on the case spoke with Diane Sawyer about the Heaven’s Gate tragedy.
Cult members were required to follow an extremely structured schedule while living under Marshall Herff Applewhites direction, like attending hours-long lectures and being told when to shower.
