The Two Faces of Erin Patterson: Uncovering the Mushroom Murder Trial


Listen Later

Please note I misspoke and I mistakenly said Heather instead of Erin .The error is regretted. 

Erin Patterson faces the Supreme Court of Victoria on three counts of murder and one count of attempted murder related to a deadly lunch where mushrooms were allegedly served. The prosecution is suggesting she had "two faces" - a loving public persona contrasting with private resentment toward her former in-laws.

• Crown Prosecutor Dr Nanette Rogers claims Patterson's Facebook messages reveal her true feelings about in-laws Don and Gail Patterson
• Ms Patterson denies allegations that she was angry with her in-laws for taking Simon's side in a child allowance dispute
• The accused explains she invited the Wilkinsons to lunch to thank Heather Wilkinson for past kindness and because Gail mentioned Heather would like her garden
• Ms Patterson admits she never told medical professionals about potentially foraged mushrooms in the meal, even after relatives became severely ill
• Evidence presented suggests Ms Patterson disposed of a dehydrator the day after being discharged from hospital
• The prosecution alleges Ms Patterson prepared a separate poisoned beef wellington for Simon who didn't attend the lunch
