Convicted ‘mushroom killer’ Erin Patterson has been sentenced to life in prison with parole after 33 years for killing three people with toxic mushrooms, capping a trial that sparked a global media frenzy.
Patterson was convicted in July of triple murder for serving a poisonous meal to her estranged husband's parents (Don and Gail Patterson), aunt (Heather Wilkinson) and uncle (Ian Wilkinson) during a sumptuous beef Wellington lunch at her home in 2023.
Ian Wilkinson is the sole survivor after receiving a liver transplant and spending months in hospital.
