The sole suspect in the 1982 Chicago Tylenol murders has died.
James Lewis, the sole suspect in the 1982 Tylenol murders, has died more than 40 years seven people were poisoned and killed in Chicago.James Lewis's death comes 40 years after seven people were poisoned and killed.
Lewis had inserted himself into the investigation by sending an extortion letter to the drug's manufacturer, but he always maintained his innocence. Authorities determined that Lewis wasn't in the Chicago area at the time. He was convicted of extortion and served 13 years in prison. Some investigators still believe Lewis was behind the murders, which he has repeatedly denied.
Investigators had been interviewing Lewis as recently as September as part of a renewed effort to bring charges in the case but now with the only suspect dead, it is unlikely that will ever happen
