## Resource

Part 1 of 3. In 1982 in Chicago, Illinois, people dropped dead after taking Tylenol filled with potassium cyanide. It all happened in a matter of hours and then it stopped. I will be interviewing Michelle Rosen, whose mother was one of the unfortunate victims. We will discuss the official narrative in this case, and all the illogical and perplexing actions taken by the authorities in response to the murders.
