Judges in Melbourne are considering an appeal by Erin Patterson, who was convicted of killing three people by serving them toxic death cap mushrooms. The appeal relates to a lunch of beef Wellington pastries she prepared at her rural home in July 2023. Prosecutors have also filed an appeal calling for a harsher sentence, stating that Patterson's sentence was 'manifestly inadequate' as it allows for the possibility of parole.
