Overview
- Mold Crown Court sentenced 33-year-old Miles Cross after he admitted four offences of encouraging or assisting suicide under the Suicide Act 1961.
- He joined the forum in July 2024 using a pseudonym, posted photos and a QR code, accepted £100 per order, and sent the chemical by post.
- CPS evidence cited a new email, phone and bank account, Telegram payment setup, Royal Mail tracking, and tubs of the substance seized during a January 2025 search.
- Two deaths were linked to his supplies, including Shubhreet Singh, 26, in West Yorkshire and a case in the Thames Valley Police area, with other victims protected by reporting restrictions.
- Police and prosecutors said he exploited vulnerable people seeking to end their lives, and coverage describes the case as believed to be the first UK prosecution of its kind.
