I certainly remember that, being married two years and planning our first child. I remember in 1984 being scared to give her pain relievers for teething. The human species can be so cruel.

I remember I was a kid when this happened. About 11 or 12. And other kids, a group of girls at a park, were singing some stupid joke song about this. Wasnt till I was just a little older and wiser that I realized the extend of how evil this was. And they KNOW who did it. The guy sent a threat to Tylenol before anyone even knew Tylenol was what had been poisoned. But they don't have enough evidence, so he will probably get away with it. But he will still answer to God. Hope he dresses for warm climates....I hear its pretty hot where he is headed....
That judge that let him go on technicality is the reason why those people died

Lady justice is blind, so if I the judge signed off on tainted evidence being used in a trial then we might as well throw the justice system out and the constitution. The judge has to follow the rules of evidence like the cops should have followed before questioning the suspect.
I remember that so well, but I didn't remember the details. Every time I open a sealed container of medicine, it reminds me of this sordid story. Thanks!
Great video. Good job on the editing, especially the sound design. I would have been curious to know some more of the investigative details, like how the police tracked them down and so forth.
You always do a fantastic job with your videos. Thank you.
People that commit these types of crimes are the lowest of lowest.

as you are? Tylenol 💋s to you, my unkown dear.
U r one of those utubers whose videos I watch the most. They are so great with loads of research evidences facts and yes the soothing background music.
I recall this as well. I recently was trying to remember the details. Thanks for this excellent description.
I love every docu you make!
So much research and thoughts in every video.. keep doing what you're doing.
This was so informative Great video!!
Heard about this on Reddit and this video helped me learn about it. Thanks
This was some great story telling. The addition of the older male voice to read the black mail note was perfect. Was that a text to speech voice, or somebody's real voice?

@@Newsthink ha! I thought so. It sounded very high quality which made me think it was tts, but the reading was definitely smoother than most tts. Also, I understand this video idea wouldn't totally have to do with your channels form of videos like having technology and science integrated into your videos, but I personally would be very interested in watching a video on how Vietnam veterans were treated in the US after and during the war.

🤫 Don't give the Sinaloa Cartel any ideas! And it we all know it won't be cyanide in it. It would be Fent!
When Mr. Lewis was answering questions in the interview his chest was heaving and he was struggling to control this… body language long associated with lying….😮
"But they didn't know about you." Damn.
When he said "no" he did a slight nod "yes." Profilers call these micro expressions I think.
Lewis' book reminds me of OJ Simpson's, "If I did It" 👀
Stories written by a current Prisoner got me here.
Since then, few examples of recovering market share...
Anything could happen now, there loads of new technologies. I always wished where there would be no killers in the world, I’am still scared

It angers me that the police laughed off the idea that the Tylenol was poisoned. This is the arrogance that all cops have, and this time it probably got people killed. There isn't a cop alive who couldn't become a better person by learning some humility.
