We are looking forward to lately’s lawsuits to get beneath means. Here’s a recap of what the jury heard on Monday from our justice and courts reporter, Nino Bucci:
Welcome
Welcome to day 20 of Erin Patterson’s triple homicide trial.
Evidence is predicted to start out after 10.30am as soon as the jurors input the court.
Patterson, 50, has pleaded now not to blame to 3 fees of homicide and one price of tried homicide on the subject of a red meat wellington lunch she served at her area in Leongatha, in regional Victoria, on 29 July 2023.
The prosecution alleges that Patterson intentionally poisoned her lunch visitors with “murderous intent” however her legal professionals say the poisoning was once a sad coincidence.
Patterson is accused of murdering her in-laws, Don and Gail Patterson, and her estranged husband’s aunt, Heather Wilkinson. She is accused of the tried homicide of Heather’s husband, Ian.
