As the panic over Tylenol spread, investigators tried to zero in on a suspect with a violent past and a history of deception.

And at the center of it all was a letter demanding a million dollars from Johnson & Johnson.

But decades later, the evidence still doesn't quite add on.

Suspects emerged, theories clashed, and the case spiraled into one of the most frustrating

unsolved mysteries in American history.

Tonight, we continue the story of the Tylenol murders.

I'm Mike.

I'm Ian.

And I'm Dave.

If you thought the killing part of this story was done

and there'd be no more tears this week,

stick around. Because his jaw rule is happy to tell you, again on the show this week. It's murder. This is Necronomopod. This is Necronomopod. God. pod. I was a little tired this afternoon.
