In 1982, a chilling enigma gripped the nation's attention when seven individuals, primarily in and around Chicago, met sudden and inexplicable deaths. Among the victims were three members of a single family and a young child. Today, we solemnly mark the 41st anniversary of the initial victim's passing—12-year-old Mary Kellerman.

As the tragic events unfolded, an observant nurse discovered a common link among the fatalities: all had ingested the ubiquitous pain reliever Tylenol, unknowingly contaminated with deadly cyanide. These mysterious deaths soon earned the grim label "Tylenol Murders," inciting widespread fear and leading store owners to swiftly remove Tylenol from their shelves.

PAINKILLER immerses viewers in the chaotic era when law enforcement grappled with one of history's most notorious unsolved crimes. This enduring case tormented families, the city, and the nation for decades. The docuseries unfolds as investigators hone in on a pivotal suspect: James Lewis. Across five riveting episodes, it unravels the complex and dark mystery, examining law enforcement's various missteps. It delves into the chilling descent into madness that consumed Lewis, who lived in plain sight for over four decades. With meticulous detail, the series also reconstructs other grievous crimes linked to Lewis, including extortion, dismemberment, and an additional murder. Four decades on, the families still bear the indelible scars of this heinous crime.
