Australian triple murderer jailed for life over toxic mushroom lunch

An Australian woman, Erin Patterson, 50, has been sentenced to life in prison with a minimum of 33 years before parole for murdering three relatives and attempting to kill another with a toxic mushroom-laced meal. The Supreme Court described her crimes as “worst category” offenses involving an “elaborate cover-up.” In 2023, Patterson served a poisonous beef Wellington to her in-laws Don and Gail Patterson, both 70, and Gail’s sister Heather Wilkinson, 66, resulting in their deaths.
