Mushroom lady trial starts today

I wonder how will this affect mushroom price, will it go down, up or stay unchanged?

There’s “screaming and yelling” outside Erin Pattersons 1.5m x 1.5m cell, smaller than most toilets. Inside it’s worse, where it’s being described as “torture”.

Erin Patterson has hired a human rights lawyer.

It might seem like an innocuous shift but it’s part of a bigger play.

On Thursday, inside the Victorian Supreme Court, her new barrister Richard Edney foreshadowed a plan to appeal the triple-murderer’s conviction.

But on the sidelines, there’s a separate push to move her from the daily deprivation and “torture” inside a tiny cell described as “a box smaller than our toilets”.

Patterson, who turned 51 inside a tiny 1.5m x 1.5m cell at the maximum security Dame Phyllis Frost Centre in Melbourne last week, is being kept separate from other inmates.

Sorry I just don't believe she's in a 1.5m x 1.5m cell. Unless it's just a holding cell for short periods.

Erin Patterson wants a re-trial -   she'll get nowhere -
the lawyers are just draining the last penny of money out of her.

Mushroom murderer Erin Patterson is challenging her conviction on seven grounds, taking issue with jury management during deliberations and "oppressive" prosecution questioning while she gave evidence in her trial.

The 51-year-old was convicted and jailed for life in September with a non-parole period of 33 years after being found guilty of murdering her former in-laws, Don and Gail Patterson, 70, and Gail's sister Heather Wilkinson, 66.

A jury found she deliberately served beef Wellingtons laced with death cap mushrooms to her lunch guests in July 2023 at her Leongatha home in regional Victoria.

She will remain in gaol like a mushroom in a dark room being fed with bullshit by her lawyers who just want more money.

People never learn - lawyers are not your friend -

they will take your house from you to get their fees.

She should be appointed as a cook in jail kitchen that would save taxpayers money

I heard that she will not be allowed to cook any food or
go anywhere near the kitchen.
