I didn't have the stamina to read all of Don's post but I know from listening to Don's podcasts how good he is at separating out the sh** from the candy. I certainly recall the incidents in question. One point of trivia in this tragic mess is that Applewhite had been voluntarily castrated as part of his cosmic devotion to the cause--whatever the heck the cause was. IMO this spells C-R-A-Z-Y. Zealous cults are always teetering on the edge and it doesn't take squat to push them over.
