In 1982, a tragedy struck the Chicago Metropolitan area. 7 people died due to tampering with Tylenol, finding Cyanide in the capsules.
Johnson & Johnson ended up with-drawling Tylenol from shelves, the FBI investigation continuing. News began slandering the medication coming up with sayings, for example, “Tylenol, Killer or Cure”
After multiple deaths from the laced medication, Johnson and Johnson lost about 100 million dollars in the recall and aftermath of the situation.
The case remains unsolved, after many years of investigation, interrogation, and curiosity, no one has been found completely guilty.
