This is the best summary I could come up with:
The National Crime Agency (NCA) could not confirm the chemical was the direct cause of the 88 deaths but has launched a criminal investigation.
Peel Regional Police said they began investigating the case in April following the sudden death of an adult in the Toronto area.
"In consultation with the Crown Prosecution Service, the NCA has taken the decision to conduct an investigation into potential criminal offences committed in the UK.
"It's important for families to understand what has happened and why policing worldwide allowed this scale of deaths despite clear warning signs," he said.
He continued: "We need to be more sensitive around the risks that people like Tom have in society through their ability to find information online that is unchallenged."
A previous version of this article, using information from the NCA, said 232 people had been identified as having purchased products from Mr Law.
The original article contains 630 words, the summary contains 147 words. Saved 77%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
