Medical Ammo
ome more ammo against the Patton Murder Conspiracy (from a doctor). Cyanide, refined or not, does not kill by “appear(ing) to cause embolisms, heart failure, and things like that.” It kills by preventing the body from using oxygen, and it kills in minutes. It can’t be refined to “kill in a given period such as 18-48 hours.” You would have to coat it in a pill case that would take 18 hours to dissolve, and such technology was not available then. It would also create a suspiciously large capsule, hard to sneak into someone without being noticed. Mixing it into food would cause instant death, causing an immediate investigation into who had access to the food beforehand.
