💨 Abstract

Erin Patterson, an Australian, was jailed for life after being convicted of poisoning three of her estranged husband’s family members, with a fourth surviving. She served a meal laced with toxic death cap mushrooms, killing her in-laws and aunt. Patterson had invited Simon, her estranged husband, but he didn't attend. Patterson's actions led to a devastating impact on multiple families. Her motive remained unclear, though relations with her estranged husband were strained.
