Why do products need warnings for dangers that seem obvious? A listener question about the McDonald’s hot coffee case leads Bradford Keaty and Dr. Joseph Ramos into one of the most consequential product-safety cases in American history: the unsolved 1982 Tylenol murders.
They discuss how investigators connected the deaths to capsules laced with potassium cyanide, what cyanide does inside the body, and the difficult legal question of whether a company should be held responsible when an unknown person intentionally tampers with its product. Dr. Ramos also explains the legal standard of reasonableness, why Johnson & Johnson’s response stands out, and how the case helped shape modern tamper-evident packaging and federal law.
The episode closes with a story from the air as Dr. Ramos shares what learning to fly a helicopter taught him about challenging yourself, even after 25 years of flying airplanes.
