Johnson & Johnson Investigation: Chicago– October 1st, 1982
In less than 24 hours, from September 29th to September 30th, 7 people in the city of Chicago died suddenly after taking extra-strength Tylenol. It is unclear how or why these deaths are connected. Representatives from the FDA, FBI, Johnson and Johnson, Illinois State Police, and other investigative agencies are arriving in the city ready to unravel the mystery. However, news sources are beginning to leak rumors of a serial killer on the loose and the public is terrified. As a committee, you will need to work towards soothing the public, unraveling the mystery behind these deaths, and working toward preventing such a tragedy from ever taking place again.
