Summary: Tamper-proof package wasn't


I've been hoping someone would give a more definite reference on this, but...

I remember seeing a newspaper article, maybe 2 weeks ago, to the effect
that although the "tamper-proof" seals on the poisoned bottles had
appeared intact, sophisticated testing had shown that the seals had
in fact been broken.

Of course, this doesn't prove that the poisoning was done outside J&J, but
taken together with the distribution-chain evidence, it seems conclusive
to me.  If it's true.
