The Mushroom Murder Trial: Erin Patterson’s True Crimes

August 2, 2023. While Erin Patterson was dumping a food dehydrator at the Leongatha tip, her lunch guests lay critically ill in hospital.

His cousin, Ruth du Bois, remembers the moment he revealed a chilling truth — he believed Erin had deliberately made him sick in the past, and had stopped eating her food.

They would never work out exactly what had happened to Simon.
