Guilty: The mushroom murder verdict

<p>A long-awaited verdict has been handed down in the mushroom murder trial of Erin Patterson. A jury found Patterson guilty of three counts of murder, and one count of attempted murder. Patterson was charged after she served her estranged husband&rsquo;s relatives a beef Wellington lunch that included death cap mushrooms in July 2023. Prosecutors alleged she put them in the meal intentionally, while the defence argued it was a mistake. Today, we&rsquo;ll take you through the latest on the trial from the verdict to sentencing, what led to this moment and what comes next.</p> <p><a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/4Xs7RXw6pvkffMt5qqN6bk?si=14ea9f4afa5f4c97">Catch up on our episode about Erin Patterson's testimony here</a>.</p> <p>Hosts: Lucy Tassell and Emma Gillespie<br />Producer: Orla Maher</p> <p>Want to support The Daily Aus?
