Seeing the newly released Erin Patterson evidence, like photos of dehydrator with mushrooms in it, and mushrooms being weighed, and her trying to leave the hospital despite being told her life was at risk, and having zero concern about her kids being at risk; makes me wonder why the jury deliberated for so long. She knew what she’d done and confidently knew she hadn’t served herself or the kids any.
So my bet was she got off and I lost that one. I owe everyone 50c :(
I saw those pictures of death cap mushrooms being weighed today and I was thinking - did they mention that evidence during the trial reporting?! Because that seems like pretty damning evidence.
They did - the defence brushed it off as "she was just interested".
They probably dissected every lie she told. That would've taken a hell of a long time.
