Ep. 122 - The Bitter Pill The Conspirators Podcast

    • Society & Culture

For many of us, it may be difficult to recall a time when every consumable product didn't have a product safety seal on it. But those tamper proof packages all stem from a very real series of unsolved murders in Chicago in 1982. Back then, someone laced several bottles of Extra Strength Tylenol with Potassium Cyanide and distributed them in stores throughout Chicago. As a result, seven people died, and the murderer was never caught.
