Investigators in Idaho have identified Dr. Matthew Betkouski as a new person of interest in the notorious 1982 Chicago Tylenol murders. A chemist who died by suicide shortly after the poisonings, Betkouski reportedly made incriminating comments to colleagues about using cyanide and tampering with over-the-counter capsules. While authorities can place him in Chicago a year prior to the crimes, there is currently no physical evidence proving he was in the city during the actual attacks. Local police departments are now reviewing the investigative files, though the FBI cautions that these links remain unsubstantiated. This development offers a potential lead in a four-decade-old cold case that fundamentally changed how consumer medications are packaged and secured.
