Charges against Law include a 16-year-old suicide death in Ontario. CBC News reported on May 8 that 17-year-old Anthony Jones from Michigan allegedly died in connection to Law's suicide kit.The British mom of a TikTok star is coming forward demanding justice after she found out her daughter died using a so-called suicide kit allegedly sold by a Canadian man, as deaths possibly tied to Kenneth Law rise to over 100.Louise Nunn said it was sickening to learn that the death of her daughter Imogen, known as “Deaf Immy” to 710,000 TikTok followers, was one of 88 British people local police say died after ordering products from Law’s websites over a two-year period.
Nunn said it was heartbreaking to learn of other deaths months and years before Imogen’s, and believes many lives could have been saved if authorities had acted earlier.
Law appeared for a bail hearing on Friday August 25, 2023 and pled not guilty. Woodward reported:
Police in Canada have warned about the websites, allegedly run by Mississauga’s Kenneth Law, ...Peel Police said at the time of his arrest that they had tracked some 1,200 products to 40 countries.Law claims that he is innocent of the charges and had no control over what people did with his suicide substance. Law was selling a legal product, that was packaged in a lethal dose but he was promoting and selling it for the alleged purpose of suicide.

The true tragedy of Kenneth Law is that he was behind more than just these 14 deaths. My son purchased drugs from Mr.Law about 2 years ago around the time that his aunt decided to end her own life using MAiD. He died by ingesting those drugs this spring. Mr. Law seems to have been happy to become a provider of drugs for young people discouraged by troubles in life. I blame the Canadian government along with people like Kenneth Law who are encouraging our youth and elderly to end their lives rather than face adversity. What has happened to my country, Canada? I grew up being raised by a father who fought in World War II, risking life and injury to save others. He was my hero to risk so much. But, the new generation of Canadians are not encouraged to take on hardship for themselves much less for the sake of other people. (I refer to the probable legislation to allow MAiD for issues such as mental health). I believe that people like Mr Law has been emboldened by our own Canadian politicians! I'm heartbroken.
