Jim Jones was not officially employed by the government. He was a religious cult leader, famously known for founding and leading the Peoples Temple. However, his cult did have some connections with political figures, and he served as the chairman of the San Francisco Housing Authority. Nevertheless, he was not a government employee in the traditional sense. His actions resulted in the tragic event known as the Jonestown Massacre in 1978.
