The Mushroom Murder Trial: Erin Patterson’s True Crimes

Erin Patterson: Lock Her Up and Throw Away the Key?

Although Erin Patterson’s actions against her family were monstrous, her treatment in custody raises hard questions about the ethics of punishment.  Solitary confinement doesn’t deliver justice — it destroys people.  In this episode of The Mushroom Murder Trial Podcast, we unpack the hidden reality of isolation inside Australian prisons and examine why decency must still have a place, even when dealing with the infamous like Erin Patterson.

Deadly Mushrooms and Legal Battles: Following Erin Patterson’s Appeal

🚨Prosecutors in Victoria are now appealing against the mushroom murderer’s sentence, arguing it was — quote — “manifestly inadequate.” Erin Patterson, aged 51, was jailed for life last month with a non-parole period of 33 years. That means she’ll be well into her eighties before she can even apply for parole. This is one of the longest sentences ever handed to a female offender in Australian history. But the department of Public Prosecutions has confirmed it’s not satisfied with the sentence. Prosecutors this week filed an appeal, saying it was simply too lenient given the nature of Patterson’s crimes — the deliberate poisoning of her in-laws. Meanwhile, we've also learned from Patterson’s legal team that she planned to appeal her convictions — although, as of now, that hasn’t been formally lodged. 📄 Website: www.mushroommurdertrial.com [https://www.mushroommurdertrial.com/] #erinpatterson #mushroommurders #mushroomkiller #TheMushroomCase #ErinPattersonTrial #erinpattersonupdate #mushroommurderappeal #ErinPattersonSentencing #ErinPattersonNews Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2333370/support] Instagram @Erin_Podcast Twitter @lisapodcasts Mushroom Murder Trial Website [https://www.mushroommurdertrial.com/]
