An engraved key traced to a Jacksonville, Florida property led detectives to Dr. Mathew Francis Betkouski's surviving brother; DNA comparison confirmed the identification, and officials announced a possible but unconfirmed connection to the 1982 Chicago Tylenol poisonings that killed seven people.
“So where this leaves us is: While our office may have identified some possible connection between Dr. Betkouski and the 1982 events, we're not naming him as a suspect and we cannot say he was in Chicago in the final week of September 1982”
