The Tylenol Murders: How Seven Strangers Were Killed in One Night Pt. 1

The Tylenol Murders: How Seven Strangers Were Killed in One Night Pt. 1

On a single night in 1982, seven people in the Chicago area died after taking Tylenol. They didn't know each other, they weren't targeted, and the killer never had to get close to a single one of them.


In the first of three episodes on the Tylenol murders, Katie Ring takes you back to the night it began: the Janus family, struck down one by one in their own home; the twelve-year-old who took two pills for a sore throat and never came back downstairs; and the flight attendant who stopped at a Walgreens on her way home from work, and never made it out. As investigators scrambled to piece together what the victims had in common, they uncovered something that would change the way Americans think about the products they buy forever.
