The abject horror of what happened to Sarah Everard makes this a hard documentary to watch. The preventability is devastating. But please do watch. Crucially it has been made with blessing of Sarah's family. Dont look away. More reform is needed bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod…

Fantastic recognition of our podcast series ‘Poison’ in which James Beal & Will Roe investigated a man selling a substance that vulnerable people used to take their own lives. True crime, yes, but also a story with a huge impact - do listen if you haven’t already.

The National Crime Agency has confirmed that some of those who took a poison sold by Kenneth Law died after police welfare checks were made at their homes.

It comes as the BBC tracks down a Ukrainian poison seller operating just like Law.
