Following the 1982 Tylenol murders, James and Leann Lewis, the prime suspects, went on the run, using aliases and even brazenly reading Chicago newspapers in a New York City library to track the investigation. Their eventual arrest stemmed from their audacious behavior. The investigation revealed Lewis's troubled past and prior crimes, suggesting a possible link to another case, although their direct involvement in the Tylenol murders remained ambiguous. Leann's lie detector test indicated deception, adding a further layer of complexity to the case.
