He also wouldn’t drink it himself. (Jim Jones killed himself too, right? Correct me if I’m wrong.)

That’s correct, Jim Jones was found with a bullet in his head. The coroner in Guyana concluded it was a suicide, although one of Jim Jones’ sons (all three were not at Jonestown at the time of the mass poisoning) has speculated that his father may have ordered one of his lackeys to shoot him in one final act of cowardice.
