Erin Patterson’s triple-murder trial has reached the end of its dramatic first week. We’ve heard about false cancer claims, a close bond with those who died and how her relationship with her estranged husband crumbled.  

On the second day of Erin Patterson’s triple murder trial, her estranged husband, Simon Patterson took the stand.

The prosecution laid out its case against Erin Patterson today, but no motive was offered. The defence fired back in its opening, saying the deaths were a terrible accident but the jury must focus on whether Erin Patterson intended to poison her relatives.

Erin Patterson's jury has been picked and the judge has explained how some of the original attempted murder charges have been dropped.

The murder trial of Erin Patterson starts this week. Kristian and Stocky break down the week ahead and what to expect in the courtroom.

There are very few people who’ve survived a death cap mushroom poisoning. Simon Claringbold is one of them.

In this episode he describes what it was like in ‘the death zone,’ as his vision narrowed and he accepted his fate, before a miraculous turnaround saw him walk out of hospital.

On a scratchy recording made in a Melbourne hotel room, a man admits to committing murder. But as journalist Alicia Bridges investigates the man on the tape known as Mr Big, she finds herself in a world of lies and subterfuge, where very few things are as they seem.
