Kenneth Law’s sentencing hearing to hear from more victims’ families
An Ontario court is set to hear today from more friends and family members of people who took their own lives using products purchased from Kenneth Law.
An Ontario court heard more victim impact statements on Wednesday, as the sentencing hearing for Kenneth Law began. Law, a former chef from Mississauga, pleaded guilty to 14 counts of aiding suicide and 14 counts of first-degree murder, related to the deaths of 14 individuals in Ontario. The court heard from over a dozen family members and friends of the victims, each sharing their grief and anguish over the tragic loss.
Adrienne Dalli, whose brother Maurizio Vadala died in 2023, stated that it is "devastating" to know that her brother was guided toward death instead of receiving the support he needed.
Law ran several websites that sold sodium nitrite and other products potentially used for self-harm. He shipped approximately 1,200 packages to people in over 40 countries, with around 160 packages being sent to addresses within Canada. Prosecutors have announced they plan to withdraw the murder charges following Law's sentencing.
