[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So I think it absolutely could have been him in 1982 and the 2nd batch of deaths in 1986 could have been an inside job copycat.

At the time I was something like 11 or 12 and it was widely believed that an individual had wanted to kill a family member but tampered with multiple bottles in order to make the deaths look random, while also disposing of said relative. I was fully expecting to hear this theory in the show, but didn't.

But how could a copycat re-create the plastic red packaging and the white label print, and get through the foil barrier? It would be impossible for some Rando to do that.

In 1982, it was completely possible to tamper with Tylenol. In 1986 it was really not.[/quote]

Yes, the packaging is the issue, which is why I suggested an "inside" job, aka someone at the factory.[/quote]

But there’s no evidence that there was a maniac working for J&J. All the evidence points to a simple quality control issue - manufacturing was totally different back in the 80s, not nearly as many safety protocols - the fact that there was cyanide testing for lead just feet away from where the actual fit for consumption pills were being made and bottled is nuts.

Like they said in the doc - it was a different kind of cyanide. [/quote]
