Grab a beer and join us tonight as we kick off our two-part series on the 1982 Chicago Tylenol Murders. We'll start with the morning of September 29th, when a twelve-year-old girl in Elk Grove Village took a Tylenol for a cold and died, and the hours that followed as authorities slowly pieced together that the deaths spreading across the Chicago suburbs weren't a coincidence. We'll walk through the victims, the investigation, and the realization that someone had been pulling bottles off store shelves, lacing capsules with potassium cyanide, and putting them back.
