Which product was tampered with in 1982, killing seven people? The most infamous case of product tampering is the Tylenol crisis of 1982. The victims had all taken Tylenol branded acetaminophen capsules that had been laced with potassium cyanide. The incidents led to reforms in the packaging of over-the-counter substances and to federal anti-tampering laws. The case remains unsolved and no suspects have been charged. A $100,000 reward offered by Johnson & Johnson, parent company of Tylenol maker McNeil Laboratories, for the capture and conviction of the Tylenol Killer has never been claimed.
