Tylenol scare tied to Masterson questioned in Chicago case
Authorities pursued William Masterson, described as 5 foot 10, 165 pounds with red hair, in Chicago linked to Tylenol tainting probes. Investigators seized items and tested substances while noting possible violence risk and a West Coast trip. Separately in Roanoke, rat poison found in two Comtrex bottles led to store recalls and official statements deeming it isolated. In Newark, Vernon Williams Jr. faced $50,000 bail for threatening Tylenol cyanide in a letter to Johnson & Johnson, with FBI surveillance of his two sons during the drop.
