“It was a new way for a mass murder,” says one of the subjects in a three-part true-crime docuseries reliving the 1982 panic after at least seven Chicago residents died from swallowing cyanide-laced Tylenol capsules. The case is still unsolved, though prime suspect James Lewis served time for extortion after sending a letter to Johnson & Johnson asking for $1 million to stop the killing. Directors Yotam Guendelman and Ari Pines say their hope in reopening the case is to give some relief to the victims’ families by “shedding new light through overlooked evidence, unheard testimonies and troubling inconsistencies.”
