Guilty: The mushroom murder verdict

A long-awaited verdict has been handed down in the mushroom murder trial of Erin Patterson. A jury found Patterson guilty of three counts of murder, and one count of attempted murder. Patterson was charged after she served her estranged husband’s relatives a beef Wellington lunch that included death cap mushrooms in July 2023. Prosecutors alleged she put them in the meal intentionally, while the defence argued it was a mistake. Today, we’ll take you through the latest on the trial from the verdict to sentencing, what led to this moment and what comes next.
