Mushroom Murder Trial: Erin Patterson to Face Her Victims at Plea Hearing
Next week, the convicted mushroom killer will be forced to sit through a two-day plea hearing as the families of her victims deliver powerful impact statements. Will Erin Patterson meet their gaze, or will she retreat behind tissues and her belief that she’s the true victim in all this?We’ll look at what’s ahead in court: how Simon Patterson may confront his estranged wife, Erin.Plus the dignity shown so far by the Patterson and Wilkinson families, and whether Erin will risk a glare or a breakdown. We’ll also compare this approach to some of the most striking victim impact statements from other notorious cases—including the blistering words delivered to Bryan Kohberger by Kaylee Goncalves’ sister.The sentencing hearing is about a month after a jury found Erin guilty of three murders and one attempted murder for her infamous beef Wellington lunch. With life in prison on the table—and whispers of an appeal already circling—this could be one of the most emotional chapters yet in Australia’s most gripping true crime case.Thank you so much for listening. I have a few thank you's, firstly to the wonderful listeners on Reddit, especially the one who said I was like a nosy neighbour - that is exactly how I like to be perceived. Because I know Erin a bit, but I can talk over the back fence about this for hours.Thank you so much to everyone who has contributed to my trip to Melbourne. I will be there with bells on.
