Accused envenom marketer Kenneth jurisprudence to plead shamefaced to assisting suicide
Today's key hearing at the Superior Court of Justice in Newmarket, Ont., marks a new chapter in a long and painful saga for families who've lost loved ones.
Between 2021 and 2023, Law is accused of operating websites that sold packets of a toxic substance and other suicide paraphernalia to vulnerable people. The 60-year-old former hotel cook has been in custody since his arrest at his Mississauga, Ont., home in May 2023.
Initially charged in connection with two suicides in the area, Law was later linked to a dozen more deaths across the province.
Today, Law is expected to plead guilty to abetting 14 suicides in Ontario — people who police said were between the ages of 16 and 36.
An agreed statement of facts may also be read out in court, potentially revealing more about Law's actions in the two years before his arrest.
