how was the lot number known? edit

I am seeing:

"In response to the publicity, Stella Nickell came forward on June 19. She told police that her husband had recently died suddenly, after taking pills from a 40-capsule bottle of Extra-Strength Excedrin with the same lot number as the one that had killed Susan Snow."

Please explain if the lot number had been published. Not knowing if this had been done, I am left wondering how did Stella Nickell know about the same lot number? This also turned up on Forensic Files (by the way, the title I found there was "Something's Fishy", referring to the accidental mixing-in of crushed algaecide). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.63.16.47 (talkcontribs)

It's typical in product recalls to list the affected lot/batch numbers if they can be determined. In this case, they tested products that were pulled off the shelves in stores and found another bottle from the same lot as Snow's that was also contaminated, and as a result the publicized that lot number (see this source).

My inquiries edit

I edited in commas around an occurrence of "Nckell".

I also saw the Forensic Files episode. It says Stella Nickell didn't know Sue Snow, who used Tylenol from a tampered-with bottle that had been placed on a store shelf in an incident unknown to Sue Snow's family. Also, FBI investigators didn't understand how the green crystals ended up where they did, but then an Auburn detective remembered seeing a fish aquarium in Stella Nickell's home.

Unreferenced date of birth edit

It's not acceptable to have an unreferenced date of birth with a BLP; at least I can't see where it is referenced. It violates WP:DOB. Please provide a reliable source or remove the date of birth. Schwede66 23:27, 6 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
