ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
This episode details the 1982 Chicago Tylenol murders, a seminal criminal case sparked by the tragic death of twelve-year-old Mary Kellerman. After consuming a capsule laced with potassium cyanide, Kellerman became the first of seven victims to succumb to what was identified as retail-level product terrorism. The episode explores the subsequent national panic, the massive product recall by Johnson & Johnson, and the birth of modern tamper-resistant packaging standards. Despite decades of investigation into suspects like James W. Lewis, the murders remain an unsolved federal case. Ultimately, the narrative reflects on how a young girl's death fundamentally transformed consumer safety and the legal landscape of the American pharmaceutical industry.
