Erin Patterson, the Australian woman accused of killing three relatives with a meal of death cap mushrooms baked in a Beef Wellington lunch, has been found guilty of three counts of murder and the attempted murder of the lone survivor.

Patterson, 50, was charged with murdering three relatives of her estranged husband by serving a beef Wellington laced with toxic death cap mushrooms over lunch in 2023, and attempting to murder a fourth. Patterson had pleaded not guilty to all charges, with her lawyers arguing the dish served was a "terrible accident."

In what is being called Australia’s ’trial of the century’, Erin Patterson was found guilty of murdering her estranged husband’s parents and aunt by spiking their sumptuous lunch with death cap mushrooms in 2023.
