LE has the job to investigate what took place. She is a POI because she cooked them a meal. That doesn't mean she's guilty of intentional poisoning. The investigation is still ongoing with no charges yet.
I think that the reason that the police have to investigate is because the Dept of Health is not satisfied.
From all I have read, I have the impression that the Dept of Health was involved immediately. As they should be, in case there is a chance of a public health danger in store bought ingredients.
Then the police became involved. With the Dept of Health saying "no comment, this is a police matter" when journos pressed the Dept of Health for answers. And they have not issued a public safety alert about any store bought mushrooms.
imo
Eg: Remembering the public safety alerts about strawberries (someone was putting needles in them). Those alerts were on all TV and radio stations. They got the alert out far and wide through Australia.
