Kenneth Law, 60, sent around 1,200 packages of lethal substances to recipients in 41 countries, including more than 100 in the UK, who he had met in online suicide forums
A man has pleaded guilty to 14 counts of assisting suicides in Canada after selling toxic chemicals online.
Kenneth Law, 60, sent around 1,200 packages of poison to recipients in 41 countries, according to authorities. This included more than 100 people in the UK, who he met in online suicide forums.
The former chef entered guilty pleas relating to Canadian victims in an Ontario court today as part of a deal with prosecutors who withdrew more serious murder charges.
It comes as British prosecutors said they would not be charging Law – a decision criticised by bereaved families in the UK.
The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) said the Canadian legal system will take the losses of UK families into account.
